What is a battery tamper and mounting tamper?
The Alarm.com Flex IO™ sensor has two tamper switches-a battery tamper and a mounting tamper.
The following table outlines how each tamper is triggered, resolved, and what LEDs flash locally to report it.
Tamper type | How it's triggered | How to resolve | LED report |
---|---|---|---|
Battery tamper | Triggers anytime the battery door is open | The battery door must be fully screwed down | 1 red blink every 2 seconds |
Mounting tamper |
Triggers if the device is moved from its mounted location Note: The tamper is located on the back of the device |
The tamper button must be fully pressed (until a clicking sound is heard) |
Alternating red and yellow blinks |
Alarm.com Flex IO™ sensor tampers can be enabled/disabled during the Flex DIY Wizard Installation process. For more information, see Alarm.com Flex IO™ sensor - Installation Guide.
