Enable chirps on the wireless Arlo Keypad

Please enable the wireless keypad to play chirps when a door sensor detects access. Currently, my hub is located on the second floor, while the keypad is on the first floor. As chirps are only enabled for the hub, I am unable to hear notifications about door/window openings when I'm downstairs. Given that chirps provide immediate alerts about potential breaches, this feature would enhance home security. It's a very simple change that has a potential for drastically improving home security.

Hi @SimplifiedGeek

Thank you for providing this feedback for the wireless keypad. At this time, this is not a currently supported feature.

The keypad will still play an entry delay countdown beeps when the system is armed. I know that is not the feature you were wanting to utilize in your scenario.

I have provided this information to the appropriate team for future consideration. I will keep this thread update with any new info.

Thank you

Same situation here. I came here hoping I could find how to work it, oh well. Hopefully they add the chime to the wireless Keypad soon.

Also, please add the feature request to enable doorbell chime on both wired and wireless keypads. As they already make sounds this seems like a natural use for the keypads to act as a doorbell chime instead of having to purchase a standalone chime separately.
