Can I use a second base station to use as another siren?

I have received 2 systems which means I have 2 base stations. First system is up and running.

Question, can I set up the 2nd base station to use only was an additional siren?

@andrewburk Sorry but its one base per system, however, one system can support mutliple sirens. I don't remember the max but I think its 4.  SS support will know for sure, use the online chat, call 

SS, please note I did not find the answer to this in the help center.

Hi @andrewburk ,


The Base Station is the brain of the security system. You could even think of it as the system, and all the components report to it. So unfortunately no, you can only have one Base Station per system.

However, as the Captain notes, you might be looking for the Wireless Siren. It can relay countdown chirps, entry chimes, and of course the full alarm siren (at a much louder 105dB). You can learn about it here.
