PB11 Posted Thursday at 08:26 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:26 PM 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 Quote Link to comment
Techman Posted Thursday at 08:41 PM Share Posted Thursday at 08:41 PM In your Customizations tab, set it for text. If that doesn't resolve your issue then set it for HTML and place <BR> at the end of your sentence. 1 Quote Link to comment
PB11 Posted Friday at 01:06 AM Author Share Posted Friday at 01:06 AM Other then triggering a sensor, is there a way to send tests? Quote Link to comment
Techman Posted Friday at 01:25 AM Share Posted Friday at 01:25 AM The only way to test the insteon leak sensor is from the sensor itself. You can put a wet paper towel under the sensor to trigger it. You'll then need to remove the towel and press the set button to clear the "wet on " node. Some of the leak sensors had different firmware and may not need the button press to clear the wet node. 1 Quote Link to comment
PB11 Posted Friday at 01:27 AM Author Share Posted Friday at 01:27 AM (edited) Ok. Thanks Tried changing the heartbeat variable but after looking at the program details i think that takes 25 hours to trigger an alert Edited Friday at 01:28 AM by PB11 Quote Link to comment
Techman Posted Friday at 03:14 AM Share Posted Friday at 03:14 AM The sensors send a heartbeat signal every 24 hours, so 25 hours is a safe bet. That's what I use. Quote Link to comment

If you want to test your formatting changes only, right-click on the program name and pick "run then". If the notification is buried in a lot of code or part of multiple programs, create a temporary program with no "if" that sends the notification, and "run then" that program Edited Saturday at 10:20 AM by paulbates 2 Quote Link to comment
