Chime on keypad?
I have two keypads. One chimes when any entry sensor is opened, the other does not. How do I set it up to chime as well? I’ve been digging through the settings and can’t find anything to turn on chimes.
Thanks!

I'm 99.9% positive that for Gen 3 systems, neither keypad sound chimes. You should only hear chimes from the base station and wireless sirens if you have any. (I just grabbed both of my keypads and opened the front door and confirmed the noise only comes from the base station.) There are no configuration options for the keypad for chime volume.
I can't speak to the gen 2 system as I never owned one.

Is it possible to add an enhancement to the keypads so they chime for the following use case:
1. System is disarmed
2. Entry sensor is opened
3. All Keypads chime along with the base station.
The previous company I used (for 10 years) had this capability for the keypad to chime. It was a great feature because I live in a 1950's multi story house and can't hear the base station when in the basement or upper level. (If the siren goes off I will definitely hear it in an alarm situation). But I can hear the keypad chime when arming and disarming because I have one keypad in each level. So it would be great to have the chime feature for the use case described above. I think the capability in the hardware is there, it is just a matter of some programming logic and a firmware update. Thanks

Why does my alarm now chirp instead of a high pitch beep?
Does simply safe remotely update the system?
Both key fobs have now died.
When two of our doors are opened with alarm on, it does not sound alarm until we CLOSE the door. What would be causing this to happen, when it never did this before?
