Troubleshooting Notifications 
If notifications are not working: 
•  Check you can see the Arm/Disarm screen of the device you wish to receive 
notifications from, this ensures you have authority to access the 
xGenConnect. 
 
•  Check the xGenConnect has at least one unused channel: Log in to the Web 
Server and access the Settings > Channels screen. 
•  Check your site is registered for notifications in the app (follow instructions 
above). 
 
•  Check your smartphone has notifications enabled (on Apple iOS click 
Settings, Notifications, scroll down and click UltraSync, check “Allow 
Notifications” and “Show in Notification Centre” are enabled, optionally select 
the Alert Style as Banners or Alerts). 
•  If you are on iOS, ensure your phone is logged into your Apple account under 
iTunes or iCloud. 
If you are on Android, ensure your phone is logged into your Google account 
under Google Play or Settings. This is required as UltraSync sends the push 
notification to Apple and Google servers for delivery to your device. “Rooted” 
or “Jailbroken” phones may not have the required software to receive push 
notifications. 
•  Update your device to the latest version.
