Hi all, I’m looking for a 230v wired powered doorbell chime and loud alarm siren, in one device. Unfortunately the Aeon Labs Siren 6 is not supported by Athom, and people who used it don’t seem too enthousiaster about it. Does anyone has a good alternative? Looking forward to your replies. Pim ---

Just to correct from my experience I guess it is supported, I wouldn’t have bought it otherwise. It was part of the Aeotec devices and I installed it very smoothly. May be I am lucky then 😜 But now it is not the strongest (112dB) but still it hurts the ears and works well ! ---

You have some outdoor wireless sirens, solar powered with battery or cable. POPP For instance z-wave. But you have a few good ones. ---

Hi, when you messaged me about the fact that the Siren 6 is supported by Athom, I bought it. Unfortunately the installation did’nt work, we tried another Homey and another Siren 6. That dit not work eather. There seems to be a fault in the software. Shame! I brought it back to the store… ---

Hi Depeej, I am sorry to hear about this but I could guarantee there was no issue at my side installing the Siren 6 device with Aeotec Application. very strange outcome for you … I am using it for multi purpose usages doorbell and Alarm at the same time and it is quite cool. Any other Athom user experience ? ---

@Depeej it might be that there is a new batch of devices with new device ID’s which are not being recognized yet by the app. I’ve had that before with a Fibaro motion sensor, but we can’t be sure as the Athom developed apps are not available any more on Github… @Arvlux, just wondering, if is it possible with the Siren to select which sound is played in a flow? Or would you do change the sound on device level? ---

Yeah but latest versions aren’t available any more afaik. In the appstore the current version is: 2.1.1 vs 2.0.18 on github. ---

Hi Paul, Yes You could select the sound in the flow which is indeed much more flexible… Illustration below ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/6/16cf6bb54f1a5499d281c7dda6c022e7342707d4.jpeg) ---

Hi! I’ve just tried to add a Doorbell 6 to my Homey, without success. Couple of times I managed to add it as a standard Zwave device, but no real success. Any idea? ---

They actually are the same. Only difference is the doorbell button. Which is 433 MHz. We tried to include the siren 6 and the doorbell. Both not succeeded. ---

Being able to select which sound is played it awesome! I’m adding it to my wishlist for when it works again. 🙂 @Depeej, I would suggest submitting a support request as the Aeotec app is developed/managed by Athom. > **[Submit a support request](https://support.athom.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015784034-Submit-a-support-request)** > > If you are encountering problems and need support, you can request support via our support desk. > Make sure you provide as much information as possible, this will help the support team troubleshoot ... ---

I added a Siren 6, however was not able to add Doorbell 6. I’ll connect the ring button later. ---

Does it work on homey? Haven’t seen an update yet… the button is 433 MHz. Why would you like to connect that to Homey? [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/looking-for-a-z-wave-siren-and-doorbell-chime/26163.md?page=2)
