Geofencing & Schedule...Questions

SwiftyRox — Sat, 22 Jul 2017 16:08:08 GMT

Hello Community....I had a couple questions regarding Geofencing and Schedule

1) In Geofencing Mode...I have (2) active devices...both mine (Personal Cell, Work Cell)...Do both phones have to leave the house in order for geofencing to take over, or is it based on simply one of the devices leaving the home?

2) In Schedule Mode...Is there any way to set the schedule so it becomes armed the evening before...Say (10 or 11pm) Start...to...(8am) Stop? It seems to complain when you want to overlap the day..Right now I can only start it @ 12AM "Start"....

I'd like to use Geofencing in conjuction with the Schedule.....Explains why I have both questions. Geofencing would use a custom mode I created when "Away", and when "Home" I have it set to schedule. (Sun to Sat).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!! 🙂

You can not go thru Midnight... Must split the schedule into two parts...

so it's very easy if you start at 10PM to 1159PM AND then on next day start on 12 midnight to 8 am

Perfect...I understand exactly what you are saying...I set it up as you suggested....basically just added two schedules in the same rule Sun to Sat...Looks like this now....It will be put to the test tonight!! 🙂
