Thank you for posting! Maybe now the poor dog that I'm watching this weekend won't have to hear this stupid thing screeching when I screw it up so frequently.
If you have professional monitoring, then yes but since I don't have it and it's not even avaliable where I live, the emergency buttons just sound the alarm and does not actually call emergency services.
Is there a way to shorten entry delay? My keypad is right by the door. It takes me 10 seconds to put in code. I don't want that waiting that long it just gives thief's time to react longer
This is good to know, I had same question. My Simplisafe keypad doesn't make a sound when door is opened. I think you can also enable Echo devices to say something like, "front door opened" or whatever you want them to say.
Could someone kindly explain the sensor bypass and how you utilise it? I want to arm my system whilst I'm out and also at night. However it will be in my hallway where I do pass through at night. Help would be appreciated 🙏🏼
The sensor bypass is a feature that allows you to disable sensors that cannot be armed either because they are currently tripped, or they are updating its firmware, or there is a fault or other reasons. You just arm the alarm in the usual way, but it will prompt you to bypass it and the bypass button will flash white (as seen in this video). If you do nothing it will not bypass. If you press any other button it will cancel. If you press the flashing white button it will bypass those sensors and arm the system.
Under the device on your app, you can disable the sensor under different mode. Then, you will not be asked to bypass. e.g. I have pets at home. Although ring allows to minimize the sensitivity, I took away motion sensor from the monitoring list by "disabling" it under Away mode. It may sound silly, but the contact sensor, and glass breaking sensor will alarm at the first unauthorized entrance anyway. I can arm with motion sensor if I take my pets out, so that function leaves me an option to arm with or without the motion sensor (or any other sensors)
@xplorefurther I have pets to and didn't know I can disable the motion on away. I am afraid of it not sensing them and the alarm going off and police coming etc. Will use the disable on away! Thank you this helps so much!
when you mean bypass the sensor do you mean like if the door sensor / window is seperated during the time ur arming the alarm then it wont sound until you close it and open it again?
No, because it only registers the code that was entered before pressing the button. If you press the button first, it will consider it as no code entered, then if you enter the code, pressing the check won't do anything because it only bypasses the sensors.
Yes, the delay can be turned off in the app. However for my alarm, only the main door would cause a delay, all the other doors and windows will not have a delay. You can program all of that in the app
Depends. If it is a second gen, you can just slide it off the plate. If it is the first gen, depends on what type of sensor but you need to press something (I don't know for sure) to take it off the plate
Can you help when I leave I have to bypass inner door as that's where the door sensor is and it's plays a series of chirps to count down but when I enter there is no sound at all so I wouldn't even know the alarm was armed unless I walked near a sensor I want it to play the chirps when entering as well.
If you bypass a sensor, then that sensor will not work unless the conditions leading to the bypass is remedied and you disarm and arm the system again. I wish they made it like that the sensor is on again after the door closes but for now you have to re arm the system.
@Bukui Zhao I tried setting the alarm after I left home through the app so that I didn't bypass anything and when I came back home as soon as I opened the door the siren went off, I assumed it would chirp and count down. Help.
@@ABITOFTHISANDTHAT12 You need to have the setting as a main door/ entry door (I forgot what it's called) in the Ring app. That way it will have a delay. If not, the siren will just straight away go off.
We are unable to connect first generation keypad to The best station we try to unplug and plug it back in but still unable to connect. Do you think the keypad unit is bad?
@@jamescc2010 keypad unit, to do that use a thin object to push the reset hole, and press and hold and the light will start flashing green and keep holding it down until it turns red. Yours may be different, mine is a 2nd gen. I am not sure if the reset procedure is different.
Yes, well sometimes the base station will only have a warble tone and sometimes like the outdoor siren, only have a yelp tone. This is because having 2 tones on the older version (1st gen) will not be sufficient
What are these tones sound like: Warble: "waaow waaow waaow waaow" like the GE Powercall Yelp: "whiew-whiew-whiew-whiew" like some cross between Standby RSG MCS DDSA and Whelen euro
You can do it through the app. Go to your devices, click on the keypad you want to have the volume increased, then on the menu you should see the volume settings.
The Code 3 sound in the background was coming from the base station, not the smoke alarm. If you do have a compatible Z Wave smoke alarm, it could trigger the Ring alarm system, but not the other way round.
does the keypad communicate with the base station? otherwise the time to enter the code is enough, that someone can unplug the keypad and remove the batteries
The keypad is wired to the base station, so any tampering will trigger an alarm but I’m guessing you could smash the base station and disable the siren but then the external siren and any spotlight cam sirens will still be sounding. It’s not a perfect alarm but it’s very good.
Yes, they both communicate but also send the signal to the app. When you take action on the app then it will send the signal to the keypad and the base station.
I have a video about all three emergency buttons. I didn't show the medical emergency button in this video because at the time of filming, I did not know what it did. However, it won't sound an alarm and will just call the emergency services if you have professional monitoring.
The outdoor siren only has a yelp tone, which is because even with the warble tone it will sound like an actual alarm‼️the yelp tone is good for sirens

The timer sound sounds like of some kind of dance side type song
that alarm going off at 2.30am scares the hell out of you!
I have a question, do the left hand buttons (police, fire, ambulance) actually call the emergency services
If you have professional monitoring, then yes but since I don't have it and it's not even avaliable where I live, the emergency buttons just sound the alarm and does not actually call emergency services.
@@BukuiZhao ;

Yes, it is adjustable in the app.
The reason why I have it long is because of COVID and I have to wash hands when I go home and I set it longer so I have more time.
You get instant or 30 seconds is the shortest time
@@Dr-Nilzo-of-Pompano-Beach yep and a year later it’s still the same I think
No. Also why is the 4th left hand button not there
Were you in the same room as the base station? My keypad is not that loud when it does the entry and exit delay.
does the keypad make a sound / chime when I open the door or window ?
It will if you enable it in the app.

Depends. If it is a second gen, you can just slide it off the plate. If it is the first gen, depends on what type of sensor but you need to press something (I don't know for sure) to take it off the plate

Does the first generation keypad have a siren?
It does have but it is only a warble tone and not a two tone siren like the second gen. However it is very quiet. So is the second gen.

Yes, you can make it operate silently. You can also turn down the volume through the app
No
@@Trafficlightsiosandmore you actually can
How do you raise the volume
You can do it through the app. Go to your devices, click on the keypad you want to have the volume increased, then on the menu you should see the volume settings.

How did you get it to sound smoke alarms upon pressing fire panic
The Code 3 sound in the background was coming from the base station, not the smoke alarm. If you do have a compatible Z Wave smoke alarm, it could trigger the Ring alarm system, but not the other way round.
No, smoke alarms are not for the ring alarm test
what does the bypass mean
It means to continue and arm the system if a sensor cannot be armed.
Like you could leave a window open if it has a sensor on it and you can arm it while the sensor/window is open
@@BukuiZhao could you cancel the alarm when it says the bypassing thing
@@H3LP_M3_OFF1C1AL yes
Why did alarm goes off if it is disarmed
does this have battery option or have to run on power?
Yes, this can run on battery for about 6 months before you need to plug in it again. You can also have it plugged in all the time.
@@BukuiZhao thank you.. thats quick. appreciate it. Love the fact that it runs on battery. cool!

The keypad does communicate with the base station using Z wave. It's not wired into anything except for power, although you can use it on battery.
And also, you cannot remove the batteries from the keypad.
Yes, they both communicate but also send the signal to the app. When you take action on the app then it will send the signal to the keypad and the base station.
@@Trafficlightsiosandmore Yes but the keypad only has Z wave. The app sends a signal to the base station only
1:44 Di- disarmed.
Looks like a glitch.
@@BukuiZhaoI know
I need one!🤣
1:44 di- disarmed
That happened because it received two signals, an alarm cleared and a disarm. It doesn't happen if it's already disarmed
That delay timer is way too long. Can the time be set shorter
Yes it can but I don't feel it's too long. The minimum it can be set to is 30 seconds but I think that is too short
