I'm trying to use the geofencing feature with a schedule.  When I am away the system is armed.  When I am home it is subject to a schedule; disarmed when home except from 11pm to 6am when is is armed.  

 

I manually place the system in geofence mode.  It arms when I leave and disarms when I return.  It rearms at 11pm and disarms at 6am.  

 

The problem I'm having is that once it disarms per the schedule at 6am, it stays in the schedule mode and doesn't go back to geofence (it probably goes in to schedule mode at 11pm but I didn't think to look).  I have to manually place it back in geofence mode. 

 

Is this normal?  Am I missing a setting.

Hi @BobChadwick-GA

 

When you are using the Geofencing mode, you have this mode selected & (have you Home/Away) set as your schedule correct?

Yes.  Here's a screen shot from the app.  I'll come home at 6 or so with the device in geofence mode, the devices will disarm as I get close and them rearm at 11pm and them disarm at 6am pursuant to a schedule.  

 

The system won't rearm when I leave in the morning around 8:30 and when I look on the status screen the mode will have changed from geofence to schedule.

May I ask which troubleshooting steps you have performed so far? I don't want to suggest any prior methods you have previously performed.

I've restarted and changed various settings.  I just realized that the picture is not visible.  

 

The Away mode is set to Armed and the Home mode is set to Schedule.

I don't see a request for logs here.  Did you send me an email?  If so, can you resend it?  I purged by junk mail folder this morning.
