Siren stuck on indefinitely

[Exergon]

When I select a camera and Activate Siren (and drag slider to right), the siren immediately starts and remains on indefinitely until I Deactivate Siren, even though the motion sensor is not triggered. Same thing happens with either camera selected.

Why doesnt the siren wait until motion is detected, and why wont it ever stop?
I restarted the Base and the devices with no change.

Android App version 4.7_28565 (8-3-23) 

Device Firmware 1.070.52.1_35_1bdb65f
Hardware: H10

Base Station Firmware 1.21.1.0_1431_9611cf3
Hardware: VMB5000r5

Thanks

That is what is supposed to happen when you manually activate the Siren.

If you want to enable the Siren when you get a motion alert, then you need set that up in the rules for the camera.
