How to trigger siren on the chime

[Rossygstar]

Hi How do you trigger the siren on the chime? I want to trigger it as and when I feel the need to without it being triggered by the cameras in a rule?

That's not how it's designed. The Pro base siren can be triggered manually but not the chime.

It says on the box for the chime that it can be an 80db siren. Does it activate with the siren on the base station?

Hi @Parrhouse,

As jguerdat mentions, to manually trigger the siren, you can do this through the Arlo Pro Base Station. Arlo Chime can be set up as a siren when your camera gets triggered from motion/audio (depending on your rules). You can read more here on how to set up your Arlo Chime as a siren (when camera gets triggered): How do I set up Arlo Chime as a siren?
