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 ![]()
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 ![]()
