User questions & answers

Question:	I have a gen 1 ring alarm. are the new gen 2 components compatible with a gen 1 base station
Answer:	Yes. All Alarm sensors are dually compatible with both generations of Ring Alarm.
Question:	What if you have a cat in the house
Answer:	You can change the sensitively setting depending on what set up you have. On the motion sensor I lowered the sensitivity since I also have a cat. Didn't want her setting it off all the time
Question:	Will this pick up my dog at night
Answer:	If you are home, motion sensors are disabled. If you are away, you can lower the sensitivity of the motion sensors so that it will not pick up your pets.

User questions & answers

Question:	Any way I can download and read the installation/ user manual before I place an order
Answer:	Since the link provide doesn't link you to manual I will https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000813843-Download-the-Ring-Alarm-Security-Basics-Manual
Question:	Can you add additional sensors after initial installation
Answer:	Problem is you accept the risk of using Ring Alarms devices not Ring. If you get a false alarm you get the bill not ring. So there QC for overpriced sensors is bad logic. You should be able to use your sensor and accept it at your own risk. Z-Wave already has standard to help with this type of issue. I am bummed because I already have high quality hidden z-wave sensor all over my house and do not want to use these huge sensors RING provides. So yes if you already have a system stay with it and ask for a better price or check out https://www.amazon.com/abode-Essentials-Starter-Compatible-Google/dp/B0793N1V54. it actually will work with all of your equipment. good luck I hope Ring changes this policy
Question:	Is it smash proof? (i.e. will still send an alarm activation if the keypad is smashed
Answer:	Yes. The alarm signal is sent through the main hub. You can smash the keypad all you want and as long as the hub is safe then it will still send the alarm activation signal.
Question:	How much is the service for professional monitoring
Answer:	Professional monitoring service from Ring is $10/month or $100/annually. This includes camera recording for 60 days for as many cameras you put on your account and also included monitoring for smoke/fire and water if you buy those additional sensors. You still have to inform your local municipality about the monitoring service and possibly pay them either a one time or yearly registration fee (your township may call it something else) which is separate from the Ring services. Both the alarm system and cameras can be enabled to record when the alarm is tripped if you don't know about that by the way. They also incorporated the panic button into the Ring app on the iPhones now too. At $279 w/ the free Echo dot its a steal. I got mine when it was not on sale for $329.00 and no Echo dot.

User questions & answers

Question:	How many zones can you hook up to this system
Answer:	You can wire up to 8 zones with one Retrofit Alarm Kit. If you have more than 8 zones, you can add additional Retrofit Alarm Kit devices to the same Ring Alarm. We encourage those who are interested in the Retrofit Alarm Kit to visit the following Ring.com help links which will be provided below: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360032456492-Welcome-to-the-Ring-Retrofit-Alarm-Kit https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035340111
Question:	Will this work if internet connection is cut or lost
Answer:	No. It connects to the Ring base station which must be connected to the internet. If you subscribe to the premium monitoring service and your internet service is lost, the base station will attempt to connect to the internet via cell service (AT&T) until your local internet service comes back. If you're like I am where there is no AT&T tower nearby the cell service won't work.
Question:	Will this work with an existing adt system with 2 motion sensors, 3 door sensors, all hard wired? can i get info. very interested. thanks
Answer:	I could get ring to work with my existing door, motion and glass break sensors. However for the powered sensors (motion and glass break) I used the old alarm system to power them and Ring Retrofit to monitor them. Might not work with all sensors, but it worked with mine. It would be nice if the Ring Retrofit had and option to provide power, but at least the workaround was not that hard.
Question:	If I have existing wired motion sensors, will this work
Answer:	The Retrofit Alarm Kit is designed for two-wire zones (contact sensors). Four-wire zones are used for security devices that require a constant source of power (motion detectors). If you want to add any four-wire zones to the Retrofit Alarm Kit, you’ll need an appropriate power source, as this device is not designed to supply power to zones. Please keep in mind that your power source will also require a reliable battery backup. If the power goes out, the zone will no longer be monitored. Without a battery backup, the zone will appear open and will trigger a false alarm every time the power goes out.

User questions & answers

Question:	What 12 volt adapter is used to allow ring keypad in location of existing keypad so you don't have to plug ring keypad into an outlet? make and model
Answer:	It will alert monitoring and they will call you before sending the police. But you have to hold the button for 3 seconds to get it to work. I put mine on the backside of my night stand to keep someone from hitting it by mistake.
Question:	Says "*does not work with existing third party keypads." so will it work with wired honeywell system & keypad? confused on what we'd need
Answer:	Yes - the Ring Alarm will sound no matter whether you are monitored or not
Question:	Is there a way to attach 12v power supply to let it power motion sensors? If so, how
Answer:	This will sound your siren and alert the alarm monitoring station who will call you to see if you need the police. On normal alarm systems panic buttons are true duress signals and the monitoring station will notify the police directly to be dispatched.
Question:	What are the other parts to this offer? There is no list
Answer:	Unfortunately this is not yet a feature allowed for the ring alarm. You can turn down the volume of the keypad(s) and base station. This will allow it to sound silently when contact sensors (doors, windows) are tripped but not for the panic button. I personally tested it with the volumes down and with professional monitoring turned off, when that button is pressed it will sound the alarm regardless. Same for the keypads (X+✓ being pressed simultaneously)

Arlo Smart Home Indoor/ Outdoor HD Security Camera

The Arlo camera is a 100 Percent Wire-Free, completely wireless, HD smart home security camera – so you can get exactly the shot you need – inside or out. The Arlo camera is weather-resistant and includes motion detection, night vision, and apps. It can capture clips and send you alerts whether you’re at home or away for round-the-clock peace of mind.

Service is included

F.A.Q

• Keep active locations in the camera's field of view. Your Arlo camera has a 110-degree viewing angle. Position your camera so that the space that you want to monitor is within the camera's field of view.
• Elevate your camera. Mount your Arlo motion-detection camera at least 7 feet (2.1 meters) above the floor and aim it slightly downward for the best sensor performance.
• Ensure that side-to-side traffic crosses Arlo's field of view. Arlo's motion sensor is much more sensitive to side-to-side movement across its field of view than to movement directly toward or away from the camera. The best area for motion detection is 5 feet to 20 feet (1.5 to 6 meters) from the camera position.

How can I extend the range of my Arlo system?

Instead of connecting the Arlo base station directly to your router, you can connect the base station to an Ethernet port on a Wi-Fi range extender or Powerline adapter. This means you can put the Arlo base station farther away from the router or in a central location in your home to get better coverage with your Arlo cameras.

Does motion detection work through glass or windows?

Motion detection does not work through windows reliably. Arlo cameras use motion detection technology that is inhibited by glass, especially windows. Passive infrared, the type of motion detection used by Arlo Wire-Free cameras, detects changes in heat. Most glass used in homes today is insulated, limiting the movement of heat through the glass.

Answer:	I never had CPI or ADT but the Ring has all the features without the cost, and I like to be in control of my security no some remote location.

User questions & answers

Question:	I have a ring doorbell but to put it on vinyl siding would I need a wedge kit
Answer:	Probably. If your vinyl siding slants it will impact the angle of the doorbell. The wedge kit comes with three wedges, you can add as many as you need to get the right angle for the camera.
Question:	Does the wedge kit for the ring video 2020 fit on the no-drill mount - to position ring doorbell without holes in the siding
Answer:	No.
Question:	How far above the bottom of the mounting plate are the attachment holes? (our angled siding is only 4 inches tall
Answer:	I don't have that information. I put mine between to Hardy planks, but I don't know the exact dimensions.
Question:	Does this work with the kit that's included in the Ring Doorbell 2? I need to angle our doorbell to aim a little lower
Answer:	Yes. Works perfectly. I too needed to angle mine lower to only capture motion on my property and not in the street.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this monitor who stole our valet garbage can from our apartment
Answer:	If you point it towards the garage can it can monitor it. If the garbage can was already stolen then no it can not time travel.
Question:	Do you have to get the Ring Protection Plan or will it work without one
Answer:	One day after installing a Ring 2 , Rings notification came up to sign up for a plan. There is no workaround to get access to the Ring devices functions as any attempt leads back to the notification screen. Be aware that ring is useless without the basic plan at $30.55 per device.
Question:	Will it cause videos that upon watching a little girl comes after you
Answer:	🤣🤣🤣 Hope I do not see any little girls with long black hair in their face nor a woman jumping off a cliff when mine is set up.🤣🤣🤣
Question:	Is there a difference between the ring 2 and this ring(2nd gen) doorbell as the ring 2 had many problems
Answer:	Yes. The product names are VERY CONFUSING so pay careful attention. This is the second gen of the RING DOORBELL, the standard, "entry-level" version of the product. It has a built-in battery, which means, in order to recharge the doorbell, you have to take the entire doorbell off. The RING 2 is the upgraded product, which has a "quick switch" battery. I have 2 batts, keep one charged so I can swap them as needed. RING 3 is the upgraded, new version of RING 2. Essentially the same with a couple new features. Hope that helps.
Question:	Lost platinum wedding band in 5 ft of water. Can it be used to locate
Answer:	Only the base of the detector can be submerged. The top of the unit is not water resistant. 5 ft is too deep. I've used my unit in up to 2 feet. There are full water resistant units outhere.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you have 2 ring doorbells on a home? will they operate independently
Answer:	Yes as long as you name them different should work fine
Question:	can you hook the feed to a hard drive
Answer:	I don't believe there is a continuous "feed." The device is activated by motion and/or pushing the button, then recordings are made. If it helps, the videos can be shared with several options. I share it to myself by email then I capture it with software I have for capturing videos on my desktop. Then I save my videos to an external hard drive for backup.
Question:	The echo show5 has no built-in battery? Seems that I need to buy a ggmm es5 battery base to move my echo show around
Answer:	Why are you asking about the Echo Show on a Ring Doorbell 3 product listing? Also, no Echo device has ever been battery powered, seems strange you wouldn't know that. Many third party manufacturers make external battery packs for them, but the reliability of them is questionable.
Question:	What is Pre-Roll on the
Answer:	Hello, The Pre-Roll feature is available on the Ring Video Doorbell 3 Plus. This feature allows you to see an additional four seconds of video before the motion event was even triggered.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will a gen 2 motion work with a gen 1 alarm base station
Answer:	If you have a Ring Alarm (1st Gen), all Ring Alarm (2nd Gen) sensors are dually compatible with the first generation of Ring Alarm, meaning you can switch out or add new sensors to your Base Station to fit your preferences.
Question:	Will this work with generation 1 base station
Answer:	Yes. All Alarm sensors are dually compatible with both generations of Ring Alarm.
Question:	Can it be used outside
Answer:	No. The Ring Alarm Motion Detector is an indoor device, it is not certified for outside conditions.
Question:	is there an option to use a plug-in power supply (instead of batteries that need to be replaced periodically
Answer:	You could get a universal ac/dc adapter ( https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07NM1ZM3V ), turn it to 3V output voltage, cut the cable and connect it to the battery contacts of the sensor. Make sure you get the polarity correct, otherwise you might destroy the detector! I'm pretty certain that Ring will not honor any warranty in this case, so do this at your own risk.
