Description
Secure your home with this Somfy Home Alarm Set. The set consists of a Somfy Outdoor Camera and a base station with 3 magnetic contacts, 2 remotes, a motion sensor, and a siren. Place the magnetic sensor near windows and doors and place the motion sensor in a logical place in the room. The motion sensor doesn't detect pets of up to 25kg, which is useful when you have a dog or cat. When the magnetic contacts or sensor detect something, you'll receive a notification via the smartphone app. With the camera, you can view what's going on right away. On top of that, you'll hear an audio signal of 90dB at the location itself right away as well. The alarm system can be expanded to 50 sensors.

A very easy to configure smart alarm. According to the manual and my online research the batteries that are on the devices last for a whole lot of time (about 1,5 year) so that means that you set it and forget it for a long time. It works greatly and you can remotely enable/disable the alarm with the key-fob/remote (when near the alarm) or from your phone completely remotely. I was a bit sad that it doesn't work fully with Google's Nest Secure to use the smoke detectors as extra sirens and/or to activate the Nest Cameras.
The cameras can be activated via the IFTTT interface in between the two.
The alarm works smoothly and it doesn't create false alarms when my cat walks around the apartment.
