Siren on Ring spotlight cam (battery) #103
Comments
Hello @beklever, |
After messing around with this for the node Ring client, I came to the conclusion the the siren endpoint behaves differently for battery vs wired cameras. For wired cameras (like the floodlight cam), you can turn the siren on/off at any time. For battery cameras, the endpoint only works when the camera is currently live streaming. I think the idea is that you are always watching a live stream when you want to turn the siren on/off. Makes sense in theory, but sucks if you want to automate the siren of a battery cam based on some other sensors. Unfortunately this is a Ring issue and not something that can be fixed from the client end. |
I know this is old but my battery powered spotlight and new battery powered stick up cam are now both activating siren in home assistant |
There hasn't been any activity on this issue recently. This issue has been automatically marked as stale because of that. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. |
Hi there,
I cannot get the siren to work on the spotlight cam. If I use the siren like in the scripts for the floodlight, everything stays silent.
When I use the lights however, the lights turn on. Is there something different between the floodlight and spotlight camera's?
Thanks for any help, love your work!
