Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: Version:1.1.8 Build 250715 Rel.66713n

I have a Tapo C460 that doesn't have expected behaviour when the anti-theft alarm is triggered. 

 

When anti-theft is enabled in settings and is triggered, I get a notification in the app but the camera itself doesn't sound any audible siren/alarm. 

 

Why is there no sound?

Hi, 
For the reported phenomenon, please confirm the following information for further analysis.
  1. Did you check the camera's alarm immediately after receiving the anti-theft notification? If not, we recommend approaching the camera to trigger the anti-theft alarm and then checking if the camera sounds an alarm.

 

  2. Is the camera's Alarm feature enabled? If not, try enabling it, and check if the camera sounds an alarm when it detects events.
      How to configure the Alarm feature for Tapo Cameras on the Tapo app 

 

Best Regards

No I didn't check it immediately. I waited to see if it would alarm. Also yes it is enabled.

Hi,
Thank you for your tests and patience.
By the way, if the Alarm feature is enabled, does the camera alarm when it detects events?
Best Regards
