How do I change my outdoor warning system settings?

Owners, Admins and Limited Admins can change outdoor warning system settings. The steps below are for the web dashboard. In the mobile app, open the unit on the Hardware tab and tap Alert Times.

Editing your outdoor warning system is only available through the web dashboard.

  1. Navigate to the on-site hardware page.
  2. Click Settings under the unit you wish to update.
  3. Under Audible Alert Times, set the days and hours your unit may sound. Outside these times, sirens and PA messages stay silent when a policy is triggered; strobes still activate. Manual tests ignore these times.
  4. Click Save Changes.

Siren tone, how long it sounds, how many times it plays, and the text-to-speech PA message are set per trigger on the Triggers tab, separately for the delay and the all clear. See Setting up Custom Warning System Triggers.
