How to get different alert tones

Can someone point me to where I can find instructions how to get a unique alert for different alerts? I found a lot of information, but I’m unable to put it all together.

On your Android Phone … Go To Settings:
There is a setting to specify the sound/ringtone for Tones 1- 5

When you send a message Include: {tone:1} in the message to select Tone #1

{tone:5} in the message to select Tone #5

i.e. The following is a legitimate message on Vera to be sent via Vera Alerts:
The Garage Door was opened!{tone:5}{timestamp}

On Vera Alerts Mobil this will be displayed as:
The Garage Door was opened!
Tone #5 will be played when the message is received.
The timestamp for the message will be the timestamp from when the message is sent … Not when it was received.

Thank you Richard, that works great - Applause given :slight_smile:

In case you want to add a bit more control / complexity…

I have a Virtual Switch that is used to determine the tone… changing based on the “security mode” of the home:

MOTION Front Door{device([172].service[urn:upnp-org:serviceId:VSwitch1].Status) | Choose(0={tone:4},1={tone:1})}

I’m hoping Richard will add some of the options as GUI checkboxes/text boxes to make it easier a bit.

it is really cool stuff :slight_smile:
