      Hi everyone, I've looked at several threads but didn't find a clear answer so my apologies if I'm asking again.

      I have an NVR with 2 cameras connected and I use the scenes for Home and Away. When I am away I would like the alarm sound from each camera to be on, however through the Scenes the only thing that is triggered is the NVR's buzzer, not the alarm sound of the cameras itself.

      Is it just me or is this not available as a setting?
      If so it seems quite annoying as it is quite a logical feature in my opinion.

      Looking forward to your inputs.
      Best

          @stevenlavigne50_713244953382940 Unfortunately the shortcuts (aka scene mode) only works on the camera itself rather through the NVR. So to make it work connect the cameras through a switch and then access the cameras directly for the shortcuts.

            Thank you for your input but I really don't get it. You are telling me that users spending more money on NVRs to get a better setup can enjoy less features. And I do see the scenes and can configure them, so it might not be such a complex issue to allow control of the siren through NVR instead of controlling the NVR's buzzer. All other features of the scenes work well except for the siren one.

              @stevenlavigne50_713244953382940 If a camera is behind the NVR it can't be independently controlled with shortcuts. It's all or nothing unfortunately.

              So to get the full flexibility put the cameras behind a switch.
