With Alarm-Triggered Warning Sounds, your compatible cameras will now play audio deterrents alongside the panel's alarm. Camera-based warning sounds deter further intrusion if the camera is far from the panel and increase awareness of the emergency.
You can choose to play warning sounds on all or just specific compatible cameras when the system is in alarm. Simply select your desired cameras when setting up the new rule.
When the system or cameras are alarming, the Manual Triggered Warning Sounds settings will be accessible on the Live View page of affected cameras. This allows you to turn off the warning sounds separately from the panel's alarm. You can access this from both Single Camera and Multi-Camera views.
