    Power outage notification via radio ra2

    I have a client that would like to receive notification via phone and or email of a power outage at there vacation home. They do not have any type of security system in the home. Could you tell me how to achieve this via radio ra2? I thought of using a power outage contact closure I find on line and somehow using a VCRX or a contact closure module to integrate with Ra2. I'm just not sure of what the notification part would look like or be. Please help. Thanks

    There are no notification features. This is something you'd have to set up using other tools. One idea might be to use a router or alarm system capable of monitoring a UPS (battery backup). But there's nothing in RA2 that would deal with this directly (nor would there be, really).

    I use APC Smart-UPSes or MasterSwitches to do this. It provides emails, and I also set up for humidity and temp alerts
