Introduction

The YoLink Siren Alarm is a smart audible/visible alarm device with both a very loud (100 – 110dB) siren and four multi-color LED lights. The Siren Alarm can be controlled from your phone using the YoLink app, by automation settings (for example, when a door or window is opened), and by other devices using YoLink Control (see page 15). It can also be controlled by the button on the front (for example, as a panic alarm). The device may be powered by USB power using the included USB cord and power adapter/power supply) or by battery power (two AA batteries, not included). The device can operate during a power outage on battery power (duration may vary based on condition of batteries).

Note: unit must be powered-up on USB power, regardless of if batteries are installed – see page 23 for more information

• When Siren Alarm configured in the Alarm Strategy settings, enabled devices alert settings can automatically activate the siren (see Alarm Strategy on page 13)
• If it is unclear what caused the siren to activate, see the History page on the app for details about what device activated the siren
• If configured via the Alarm Duration settings in the app, the siren will silence automatically
• Additional device collaboration may be available. YoLink products are continuously being improved, with new features and capabilities being added at any time.Check our website for up-to-date information on our entire product line

Automation (Set Up Rules For “If This Then Do That”)
The most popular use for our YoLink Siren Alarm is to activate the alarm automatically in the response to events such as door has been opened, motion has been detected; water leak has been detected, etc. Generally, you have two options for this:

• Option 1. Configure an Automation in the app. Settings you make in the app will “tell” the siren alarm to activate alarm once an event occurred. In automation terms, this would be written out “IF an event occurred such as “door is opened”, “motion is detected”, “water leak is detected”, etc, THEN activate alarm.” This is a simple process in our app, and if this is your first time with a smart device and with automation, we will explain it clearly in this section
• Option 2. Utilize YoLink Control to “pair” one or more door sensors/motion sensors/water leak sensors to the siren alarm, so that the siren alarm is activated as soon as a door is opened, a motion is detected, a water leak is detected, etc. Yolink Control is a unique device-to-device protocol that allows for this to work, without internet and even without power. YoLink Control is explained on.

About YoLink Control

YoLink Control is our unique device-to-device control technology. Using YoLink Control, YoLink devices can be controlled without the Hub or an internet connection. (Use of Yolink Control is optional; you can use the Automation feature in the app OR use YoLink Control, but Yolink Control offers the benefit of operation without the Hub or internet connection.) One device controls another, directly. A device that sends out commands is called the controller. A device that receives the commands is called the responder. Examples of a controller are a Water Leak Sensor, while examples of a responder are a YoLink Siren Alarm or a YoLink Plug Mini The YoLink Siren Alarm can only work as the responder of YoLink Control

Pairing

To configure your Water Leak Sensor as a controller, Press and hold the SET button for 5-10 seconds until the LED quickly blinks green, then, release the button

• To configure a Siren Alarm as the responder, Press and hold the SET button for 5-10 seconds until the LED quickly blinks green, then, release the button
• Upon pairing, the LED will stop blinking (this may happen after only blinking two or three times)

Operation

• When the Water Leak Sensor detects water, the Siren Alarm will now immediately activate alarm. The Siren Alarm will remain activated until silenced via the app or using the SET button of controller; the restoral of the Water Leak Sensor to normal (no water detected) does not silence the siren alarm
• More advanced sequences, controlling multiple outputs (e.g. activate siren alarm when the door is left open) are available via the YoLink app

Diagram of YoLink Control of other devices act as a Controller

Unpairing

1. At the Water Leak Sensor (controller), press and hold the SET button for 10-15 seconds until the LED quickly blinks green, then red, then, release the button.
2. At the YoLink Siren Alarm (responder), press and hold the SET button for 10-15 seconds, until the LED quickly blinks green, then red, then, release the button
3. Upon un-pairing, either the Water Leak Sensor LED or the Outdoor Siren Controller LED will stop blinking and turn off
4. The Siren Alarm will no longer respond to the Water Leak Sensor
