Checking Geofence Location for Occupancy
So I now have my geofence working with the Occupancy 2.0 Node Server. I have two devices within the geofence: me and my wife. I have this simple program (screenshot attached) to demonstrate. When I tried to change "Status" to "Control", I could no longer check the geofence. Is this the best way to test if one of us is home or we're both away? How often will this program fire? Only on a change to occupied status? Thanks.

How to add spouse's location into my geofence?
@Javi OK I'm there! I have my wife's iPhone logged in with my credentials. Then I added Network Resource Notification messages specific for her and set the the Geofence device "Nancy" to on or off appropriately. Now I'll test a simple program to turn some lights on or off when we arrive or leave. Thanks for hanging with me on this!

How to add spouse's location into my geofence?
@Javi I really not trying to be dense here but... my wife does not have an account. In fact, she'll never use UD Mobile. I am trying to get it set up for the geofence only. So can I log into MY account on her iPhone using UD Mobile and be able to define it as HER phone for the geofence even though I'm logged into my account (the only account I have)? Does that make sense?

Config questions
OK, I feel a bit like a newbie here even though I've been using a iSY994i and now an Eisy for a long time. I maybe got in over my head. Yesterday I got the Notifications Node Server and Push Node Server installed and running. I paid for a Pushover license yesterday. Today, I discovered there is a paid version of Notifications so I paid the $15 for that. But the configuration questions that are flying around in my head are making me dizzy. Let me start with my Polyglot Dashboard. First attached. In the Nodes Details for Notifications I have the 2nd screenshot. I defined the Pushover Node "KBM PO" using my pushover api and user keys. Not sure if that is what I should have done or not. KBM PO does NOT show up in my Admin console anywhere. I've closed it and restarted it but still nothing. Should I see it? In the Configuration section, do I need to define an ISYPortal Service Node and Notify Node (3rd screenshot)? Let's start here before I add more of my questions. Thanks for your patience!

Using Notification Node Server & Pushover together?
Too many questions to ask here. I am going to post in the Notifications subforum.

Connecting EISY and HomeKit?
Is there currently a way to connect my Eisy/INSTEON environment to my Apple HomeKit environment?

How to add spouse's location into my geofence?
@Javi I installed UD Mobile on my wife’s iPhone and imported my backup. Now when I open the app on her phone it wants me to login. Am I supposed to login into my account or do I have to create an account for her? Sorry for the detailed questions but this is new territory for me. Thanks!

Using Notification Node Server & Pushover together?
Can the Push Node Server messages be customized? I see the predefined messages in the attached screen shot. What if I want something else?

Honeywell Home Node Server?
@Javi if I could find a support email 😡, i’d send them one. Their support options are lacking to say the least.

HomeKit support
Is there any new news on this? I really want to be able control HomeKit compatible devices I have installed with programs from my new Eisy. I just don't see a way right now to connect the two environments. Is that true?

Using Notification Node Server & Pushover together?
Really trying to understand how these two work together and do I need both. I installed Notification Node Server and configured a few network resource notifications. They seem to work fine. I assume I could keep doing it this way with no issues. But I also installed the Push (Pushover) Node Server and bought a license for my desktop and iPhone. The Push device in the Admin console has no devices added to it. There seems to be 2 ways to add devices: through the polyglot dashboard and configuration page for Push or from the Admin console Node Servers/Push menu. Either way, it's not clear how to define a device. From the dashboard, it says: Enter things: Key Value Front Door you can leave this blank Garage Door Etc Are these keys related to Eisy devices or have nothing to do with them? From the Node Server/Push menu, I can add either a Pushover Controller node or a Thing node. It's asking for a Name, Node Address, and Primary Node Address. No clue what addresses this is referring to. I've looked through the wikis and the forum but can't find anything. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

Honeywell Home Node Server?
@Javi I can get to https://developer.honeywellhome.com/ which is the updated URL but I can't get logged in because of my old, forgotten password. I have requested a password reset multiple times and still have not gotten anything. Something is broken somewhere.

Honeywell Home Node Server?
Is anyone able to use the Honeywell Home Node Server? It hasn't been updated since Sept 2022. I was able to install it. I used to use this a couple years ago at my old house. I had a Honeywell Developer account per the instructions but I don't remember my password. When I try the reset pw option, I never get a reset email. I tried registering again and it said my email address was already used. Wondering if this system is dead?

T-Mobile texting from Eisy Program
Well, I'm almost there. I just figured out that I didn't have Pushover installed. I do now but it wants an api_key and user_key which I do not know where to get. UPDATE: I found pushover.net and bought an iPhone and desktop license. I have my api and user keys and entered them. In my Admin console it says the Push devices is Disconnected. Working on that now.

How to add spouse's location into my geofence?
@Javi OK I'm getting closer. So now I have enabled Notifications in UD Mobile, set up a notification for entering and leaving my defined geofence, and added commands to set "Kent" to True when entering and False when leaving. But for my wife, I assume I need to install UD Mobile on her iPhone and then log it into MY portal account and define the same geofence as I have on my iPhone?

T-Mobile texting from Eisy Program
@DennisC I have switched to the Notification plugin and Pushover and it's working great. Thanks for the pointer!

T-Mobile texting from Eisy Program
@DennisC The Test button does nothing. No text comes through. Looking for details on the Notification plugin now.

T-Mobile texting from Eisy Program
I changed it to use Control and the program does not run. I also did a forced Run Then on the program and the text still doesn't come through.

T-Mobile texting from Eisy Program
This is my test program (attached screenshot). I get nothing when the program runs. I tried sending an email from my computer to 616485xxxx@tmomail.net and it worked. What am I missing?

T-Mobile texting from Eisy Program
I am trying to define a notification to send me a text on specific conditions. My cell provider is T-Mobile but when I define the notification and select T-Mobile from the dropdown, it creates a recipient that is xxxxxxxxxx@tmomail.net. I filled in my cell number but get no notification even though my program runs. I assume tmomail.net is an old interface. Is there a newer one for T-Mobile?

How to add spouse's location into my geofence?
@Javi Thanks that helped. I have done that. See attached screenshot. My next question though is how does it really know when either my wife or myself have truly left home? The mobile devices aren't tied to specific phone numbers/phones so I'm not how it knows.

How to add spouse's location into my geofence?
@Javi sorry but the documentation is just not clear to me ( a novice at node servers). Do I still need to do the Occupancy Node Server/Configuration step? Or do I just go directly to Occupancy Node Server/Occupancy v2.0?

How to add spouse's location into my geofence?
@Javi I configured an Occupancy Node Server through the portal. The next step is "Upload node definitions". What is that exactly? It says it will reboot my Eisy when it's done.

How to add spouse's location into my geofence?
@Javi thanks. Is it possible to do what I'm looking for without the NS just using UD Mobile? The NS looks a bit cumbersome.
