From the profile page, go to the Registered Devices Submenu. This page will display all the devices where the user has an active E3 account signed in. These devices will receive notifications in the event of an alert. Select the dropdown menu for the specific device you want to send the notification to, and then click on the Send Test Notification button. Within a few seconds, a notification should appear on the desired device.
