Is subscription required?

Is the $29.95 yearly subscription required for the Node Server or would this actually be a way to not require the remote access subscription because the Node Server on Polisy is on the local network?

No, the price listed for the node server is a one time charge.  The subscription fee is charged by the Rainmachine organization for remote access using their servers. 

You can avoid that too if you know how to set up port forwarding through your router to your Rainmachine.

I suppose you could say that by using UDI Mobile in remote mode you'd have remote access without using the RM servers.

Thanks @glarsen.  I could do port forwarding but accessing my RM from the UDI Mobile with the RM Node Server sounds like a good solution!
