How does the fire alarm detection work?

You can be alerted remotely in the event that your smoke detector sounds.

When detection is activated, the microphone integrated in the Somfy One / One+ runs continuously. The camera intelligently analyzes the fire alarm’s sound, allowing it to report this event to notify the user of the alert.

 

Procedure

Fire alarm detection requires using a Somfy One / One+

In order for the fire alarm detection to work properly, the shutter must be open, regardless of the current arming mode (armed, disarmed or night mode).

Please note that in all cases, your privacy will be respected: if the shutter is closed, the microphone is off, and therefore there is no audio recognition.

Warning: when the device sound is off (speaker icon with strikethrough), fire alarm detection is not possible.

 

3 setting levels are available :

  • “Always” : whatever the state of your system (Motion detection activated or deactivated), if the shutter is open and the camera sound is on, you will be notified in case of fire alarm. .
  • “Never” : you will never be notified in case of fire alarm, as this functionality is inactivated. 
  • “If detection is activated” : in case of fire alarm, you will be notified if motion detection is activated.
