IQ Panel 4: Siren silenced immediately? (before entering user code)

While testing the system, I noticed that the alarm siren automatically silenced after 15 seconds, even with the screen showing the red ALARM screen. I had not yet entered my user code.

Later I tried reducing the Dialer Delay from 15s to “0” (after unchecking “SIA Limits”), and upon testing, found that the alarm siren silenced almost immediately (again, pre-user-code).

I did notice a small icon at the bottom of the screen which indicated “SIREN SILENCED”.

Shouldn’t the siren continue to blare, until the user code is entered and accepted?

Thanks.

I believe it’s either one of 2 things might need to change panel siren time in settings to longer or it also does this when 2 way voice is trying to connect

This is normal with 2-way voice. The siren must shut off for two way voice calls, it will start back up after completion if the system is not disarmed.

Thank you both so much for the help!
This makes a lot of sense- I did enable 2-way voice, but didn’t make the connection with the siren behavior.

Many thanks.
