HI All I hope I can explain this clearly enough. I'm using UD Mobile Geofence and have had great success with this program setup prior to some changes I made recently to account for someone already being home. I adjusted my programs to account for the fact that either my wife or I are home and that only certain parameters should be executed ie. lights not changing when i'm in the midst of something. The issue I'm having is that the Geofence node is changing status for mine and my wife's neighborhood fence and our home fence appropriately, but the programs will now not run. The first programs that will run based on geofence status are "PB home W AP" or "PB home WO AP". These setup lighting based on if one is already home or the one arriving is the first one home. PBHome W AP - [ID 008A][Parent 002B] If 'Home / Peter' Occupied is True And 'Neighborhood / Peter' Occupied is True And 'Home / Annette' Occupied is True Then Run Program 'PB Arriving Home W Resident' (If) Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') Based on condition "PB Arriving HOme With Resident" (which i have disabled to prevent the time condition from triggering program) will be triggered by "PBHOme W AP". I'm assuming this is the component which is not being tirggered. I'm suscpicious it is due to the fact i have it disabled, but my understanding is that the program will still run the "if" and onward if triggered by another program. PB Arriving Home W Resident - [ID 0089][Parent 002B][Not Enabled] If From Sunset To 5:00:00AM (next day) Then Set '#House / Arriving Home w Resident' On Wait 2 minutes Set 'Security / Security' Off Wait 3 minutes Set 'Garage / Garage Lights' Off Set 'Mud Room / Mud Room Lights' Off Set 'Hallway / Hallway' Off Else - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action') -- Manully running the "If" statment triggers the subsequent scenes without issue. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Peter Please excuse any amusing auto-corrections

This was a valuable exercise as I was able to also set up UD Mobile for Geofence based on the occupancy nodes. seems like a cleaner and easier solution than configuring state variables. Thanks @Javiand @Geddy

OK! This explains it. I was certain I’d received notifications at some point regarding these programs being activated Never even occurred to me the term “switched” meant the physical action on the hardware.

So in the end it was a detail i had not picked up in my programming. Though i thought i had historically recieved notifications from every program, I now have to assume i was only getting a partial catchment. Maybe someone can explain why, but my programs set to trigger when "is switched on" did not trigger a notification, while my programs that were set to "status is on" successfully send a notification every time. Would love to know the difference. Thanks for all the help.

Thanks Javi. Really appreciate that you make yourself available as much as you do. It appears that maybe only the Notifications are failing to send when the programs have been triggered, though I will definitely look into Occupancy Node Server more. Is this a better approach then solely using UD mobile geofencing and state variables? Also wondering if you can possibly tell me if the old "Emails/Notifications" component in Admin Console still functions, or has it been replaced with Notification Center? When i run "test" i do receive the test sms, but none of my programs are sending notifications. Thanks

Greetings. Been awhile since i last dove into my Polisy/programming and currently feel very lost. Recently I noticed none of my geofence based programs and notifications were working. UD Mobile Home and neighborhood Geofence triggers a statevariable change which in turn acts as conditions for many programs within my home. Variables change, but programs or notifications are not triggered. Some time ago I carelessly installed the new notification center as well as the Occupancy Node server as I read it would help if multiple users were within the same home. The Occupancy Node server created nodes within Admin Console but for the life of my i can't figure how they would be associated with UD Mobile. Historical setup is to use "Emails/Notifications" with the recipients being my cell number and email. Feeling somewhat defeated as I'm not really sure where to look. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

@Clive Alcock I'm realizing that I may have failed to offer clear details on what I was trouble shooting. Your solution definitely gave a line break for the email based alerts. My issue is with SMS alerts. The <br/> does not correct the jumbling of alert content within sms.

@Clive AlcockOk thanks. I'm slow to respond but will definitely try this. Michele had responded to a ticket i had submitted and informed me this was something that would be addressed in the next release.

No luck with the linebreak in html or txt.

Ok. Thanks Tried changing the heartbeat variable but after looking at the program details i think that takes 25 hours to trigger an alert

Other then triggering a sensor, is there a way to send tests?

Have been using the program set up that @belias created for about four years now. I can’t overstate my appreciation for the work that was put into this. Recently, my SMS alerts have been showing up unformatted, so it’s very difficult to see what alert is associated with which leak sensor. I’ve tried formatting the SMS message with colons or semicolons with no luck Wondering if anybody knows what punctuation is required in an sms to trigger a “return”? Thanks kindly

My favs not updating while remote. can’t test local as I’m away from property. have installed the most recent patch.

Updated UD mobile still no status on favourites.

Strange thing is. At this moment the shortcuts on my iPhone are not working while the shortcuts on my ipad are. both are on the same wifi network and have connectivity. Cant see what the difference is.
