How It Works

Smart devices like this siren open up endless possibilities for customizing alerts and rules in your home. Play custom audio files or choose from the built-in sound library for personalized automations. Trigger both sound alarms and LED alerts based on sensors or other smart conditions.

Siren Alarm

Small but mighty, this siren delivers up to 90 dB of sound. Preloaded with basic alerts, it also lets you upload your own MP3 or WAV files for fully personalized notifications. From serious alarms to playful reminders, like a generated K-pop “Close it or no Roblox” tune for an open porch screen, you can make sure your message is heard loud and clear while your smart home runs itself.

Sound Notifications

Play standard security alerts like “Garage door left open,” or create your own custom reminders and chimes for any scenario. This device works like a private, secure voice assistant, helping you stay organized with gentle prompts such as “Laundry is ready for the dryer” or “Time for your evening meds.”

Keep things discreet with soft chimes for important events triggered by your smart home, or use it as a doorbell when a connected camera or Z-Wave motion sensor detects someone outside. And the best part? It does all of this without you ever needing to check your phone.

Visual Alerts

The siren’s LED indicator is fully programmable, letting you choose any color to flash or stay solid based on the conditions you define. Pair these visual alerts with sound or use them on their own for quiet reminders, like mail still waiting in the box or a dishwasher that needs unloading. When triggered by Z-Wave sensor data, the LED gives you an instant, at-a-glance update on what needs attention without ever opening the app.

Hardware Features

Experience a Siren & Chime that’s engineered with precision and designed to feel right at home in any space. It’s powerful enough to serve as a smart alarm and compact enough to leave the other outlet free.

PRODUCT FUNCTIONALITY QUESTIONS

Does the ZSE50 have energy or power monitoring?

  • No

What security level does the ZSE50 pair to my controller or hub with?

  • The highest level of security the Siren & Chime supports is S2 Authenticated.

Will the ZSE50 act as a signal repeater for other Z-Wave devices in my network?

  • Yes. Your Z-Wave hub decides which devices to use to reach other Z-Wave devices. Any non-battery powered Z-Wave device will act as a signal repeater; it would be up to your hub whether or not it will be used in a communication route.

Will the ZSE50 still act as a signal repeater during a power outage when it is running on battery?

  • No. As per Z-Wave protocol, battery powered devices do not act as signal repeaters. When the ZSE50 switches to battery, it will send the AC main disconnected report to alert for the outage, and will no longer be a signal repeating device.

Is the back-up battery in the ZSE50 replaceable?

  • No, the battery in the Siren is built-in and cannot be replaced. The battery automatically recharges when the siren is plugged in and it cannot be removed or replaced.

Does the ZSE50 provide power outage notifications when switching from mains to battery power?

  • Yes. The ZSE50 supports AC main disconnected and AC main re-connected in the same manner as the ZAC38 Range Extender.

How long will the back-up battery in the ZSE50 last for?

  • Depending on the network traffic and how many signals the device relays, you can expect approximately 12 hours of battery life on the siren from a full charge. The battery is 400mAh.

Z-WAVE QUESTIONS

Do I need a Z-Wave hub to buy this device?

  • Yes. To use the siren and chime features as well as control the device remotely and access the advanced features, you would need a Z-Wave hub. The ZSE50 communicates via Z-Wave and would require a hub to allow you to control it remotely.
  • To control any of our Z-Wave devices remotely through your smart phone, you’ll need a compatible Z-Wave hub. These devices require a central controller that communicates with them and sends commands. Once you have a controller, you would download that controller’s dedicated app on your phone and control your connected devices through that app. 

Is the ZSE50 Siren & Chime compatible with my hub?

Will the ZSE50 work with my alarm panel?

  • Alarm panels like Alarm.com will typically only support single switches, door locks, select thermostats, and any authorized items on their list. We would recommend reaching out to your alarm panel company to verify compatibility and to get the latest on any device integrations they may be working on. 
  • It would be up to your alarm panel to integrate the device, as it follows Z-Wave protocol and has been Z-Wave certified. There is nothing we can change on our end to have the device be recognized correctly; Alarm.com would have to support the integration. Read more about alarm panel compatibility here.

Can I connect the ZSE50 directly to my Amazon Alexa, Google Home, or other smart speaker?

  • No. Smart speakers like Alexa or Google are not equipped with a Z-Wave chip and are not Z-Wave gateway controllers.
  • Without a compatible Z-Wave hub, no Z-Wave products will function correctly with Alexa or Google alone. 

Where do I find all of my device’s advanced settings?

How do I add the extender to my Z-Wave hub?

How can I tell what firmware my ZSE50 is running on?

  • The firmware that your device is shipped with should be printed on the back of the device where the model specifications are. If your hub supports and properly integrates the device, you should also see the firmware listed in your Z-Wave interface.

How do I update the firmware of my ZSE50?

How long does the update take? How do I know when it’s finished?

  • Firmware updates should usually take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes depending on connection quality and how much information needs to actually be updated on a given device.
    • If it is taking longer than that, please try to bring the hub / controller closer to the device that is being updated.

Where can I find the history of changes and firmware updates for the ZSE50?

What series Z-Wave chip does the ZSE50 use?

  • The ZSE50 uses an 800 series Z-Wave chip
