Thanks, Steve. After reading the manual info, my understanding is that the default factory setting requires you to manually activate the alarm if you want to, for example, make things uncomfortable for an intruder. Is that correct?

Tenn53,

By default, the siren is not enabled within the rules for your cameras. The Siren can be triggered by motion detection (this must be enabled within the rules for each desired camera) or manually through the "Turn Siren On" button on the devices screen.

Thanks, James. Default no siren is definitely a safer way to go. Our Arlo Pro system has only been up and running for about three days, but so far it has exceeded expectations. And it was fairly easy to set up, as well.
