If Siren 6 has successfully paired to your Z-Wave gateway, the LED on Siren 6 will emit a solid color for 30 seconds, then turn off. If in the case that the Siren 6 failed to pair, LED will continue to blink slowly.With your Siren now working as a part of your smart home, you’ll be able to configure it from your home control software. Please refer to your software’s user guide for precise instructions on configuring Siren to your needs.

Removing your Siren from a Z-Wave network.

Your Siren can be removed from your Z-Wave network at any time. It is always advised that you use your gateway to perform an unpair in order to avoid leaving phantom / failed nodes that become difficult to remove. To do so, follow the steps below:

Press the Action Button 6x times in 2 seconds on your Siren.
If your Siren has been successfully unpaired from your network, its LED will begin to blink slowly which indicates that it is ready to be paired again.

[2-5 seconds], the test siren sound will run, then stop after 5 seconds has passed.
