Your Room Alert Account And The Room Alert Monitor Web Interface

By default, your Room Alert Account reads device and sensor names from the Room Alert Monitor’s web interface.

When you make changes to a device or sensor label directly in the Room Alert Monitor’s web interface, your Room Alert Account will then display that name.

However, when you make changes to a device or sensor label in your Room Alert Account, the Room Alert Monitor’s web interface does not display that name.
