Rule

Sub ID a

Transitions from one state directly to an external child state shall be prohibited.

Custom Parameter

Not Applicable

Example — Correct

Transition from parent state to parent state.

Transition from child state to another parent state.

Example — Incorrect

Direct transition from an external state to a child state in a different state.

Direct transition from an external child state to a child state in a different state.
