Outdoor camera siren continues once alarm is turned off
Background:
I mistakenly triggered a false alarm by closing a window when the alarm was on. Evidently instead of the motion sensor detecting "closed" (which shouldn't trigger alarm) it instead saw "closed/open/closed" which triggered the alarm. This is a separate issue which I need to resolve. Most likely by adjusting the positioning of the sensor components.
Question:
Once I turned the alarm off, the base unit siren stopped but several of the outdoor cameras continued to emit the siren sound for several minutes. I was just on one side of the house so I don't know if all the cameras sirens were active. It being 5am I was most concerned with stopping the noise. I could not find a way to do this via app etc., so I had no choice but to wait it out. Over several minutes the siren noise diminished an eventually stopped altogether. It was similar to a capacitor being depleted of electricity.
Has anyone else encountered this situation and if so did they discover a way to remedy it?
Thanks in advance!
