Publication number: 20150160635Abstract: Various arrangements for providing home automation notifications to users are detailed. A selection of a home automation event to trigger transmission of a home automation notification and a first group of users may be received. When the event occurs, the home automation notification may be transmitted to the first group of users. A first communication path associated with each user of the first group of users may be used for transmitting the home automation notification. For a time, monitoring can be performed to determine if a receipt response from each of the plurality of destinations is received. For users for which the receipt response was not received, the home automation notification may be sent via an alternate communication path.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2014Publication date: June 11, 2015Applicant: Echostar Technologies L.L.C.Inventors: Joseph Schofield, Eric Holley, David B.
