I have Arlo security system with the trial for safe and secure plan.

 

When a smoke detector alarm is detected by the base station or by a sensor, is it possible to alert emergency responders? 

 

The "rules" for standby mode when a smoke detector is detected only show the option for a notification. 

 

It looks like absolutely nothing can trigger an "emergency" in standby mode.

 

I tested this and set off a smoke detector in standby mode and all I got was a notification. No emergency response.

 

So is it possible to have smoke detectors trigger an emergency response in standby mode? 

 

Sadly this is a deal breaker for me If not.

Hi @bicarbon 

 

At this time, Emergency Response Panic as an action in Standby is not supported.  I will provide this info to the appropriate team for future consideration. Thank you for the feedback.
