🔔 Ring Keypad v2 Sounds SCRIPT, zwaveJS

Noblewolf · January 27, 2024, 3:10pm

Use your Ring Keypad v2 built-in sounds!

The ring keypad has multiple built-in sounds that you can trigger. This is a script blueprint. It does not have a built-in trigger. Save the blueprint script with your choice of sound and volume then trigger it in another automation

Thank you @ImSorryButWho for documenting all of these sound options: HomeAssistantNotes/RingKeypadV2.md at 5baf421ce1e8737e34710f6c643456af09a480b0 · ImSorryButWho/HomeAssistantNotes · GitHub

Feedback Please

Keypad Version
- I only have a Ring keypad v2. If you try this with the v1 and it works let me know
Zwave Integration
- I currently use ZwaveJS. If you try this with ZwaveJS UI (would 99% probably work) or ZwavetoMQTT and it works please let me know.
- To test this remove the integration: zwave_js to allow the device selector to find your ring keypad in a non ZwaveJS integration.
Multiple keypads?
- This may work with more than one keypad in the same blueprint, but I only have 1 keypad. If you want to test this change multiple: false to multiple: true. If it works let me know and I’ll update the blueprint!

Thanks for sharing this - just installed - new to me Alarmo - Ring Keypad 2 / Zooz 700 - ZwaveJS integration - working great ! - this is alot easier to call as a script than a device / entity with parameters that you have to decode. (pick sound / set volume and away you go)

Noblewolf · March 4, 2024, 3:13pm

I’m glad it works for you! I got my keypad and saw this blueprint was missing. I definatly did not want to do the manual script either as UI interactions are always better and more confident.

Amc51 · March 23, 2024, 5:05pm

This works great with 2 Ring Keypads after editing the yaml to multiple: true

Noblewolf · March 24, 2024, 7:06pm

Good to hear. I’ll modify the blueprint to multiple: true

blueharford · September 30, 2024, 9:53pm

I test run the script and it’s not making any noise. Have any ideas?

blueharford · September 30, 2024, 10:04pm

Have you seen this?

Noblewolf · October 1, 2024, 7:25pm

Hi @blueharford I just checked and I haven’t seen that error on the past several runs. Mine has been working normally. I’m on the most currrent update of Zwave JS UI.

That error makes me think that your keypad doesn’t have the capability? What is the model of your keypad? Also, do any of the sound/volume combinations work?

blueharford · October 1, 2024, 7:37pm

Hey thanks for testing it out, I ended up removing and readding the keypad to my zwave network and it then started working. Which is weird. Maybe the first pairing missed some data?

Noblewolf · October 2, 2024, 8:35pm

Glad to know it is working again!

G2740 · October 13, 2024, 7:59pm

Thank you! Worked for me. Much easier to change sounds. I think my V2 defaults to Police siren, but still if I want another sound this makes it very easy to change sounds, volume.

Just a note that the link inside the blueprint that says “If you like this etc”. doesn’t seem to work. Or maybe its just me, .

paulcusick3 · April 1, 2025, 12:19am

Anyone know the fastest way to stop the Police, Fire or CO2? I arm and disarm. Is there a better way?

G2740 · May 20, 2025, 6:46pm

Idea: Add Parameter edits and perhaps More Keypad Controls to Blueprint?

Hi @NobleWolf,

Your Ring Keypad v2 Sounds blueprint is fantastic—I’m using it with two keypads and Alarmo, and the multiple-keypad support is a great!

I was thinking it could be even better if it controlled more keypad settings, like toggling the motion-activated key lights (e.g., the proximity detection setting toggle) or other features like button beeps or LED modes, timers etc.

I know proximity motion lights can be turned on & off via ZWaveJS (like Parameter 15), but it’d be awesome to do this and more from the blueprint script without manually clicking Configure in Zwave JS.

(Note: “A reboot “might” be needed for some Z-Wave changes to stick.” ie; Parameter 15 seems to need it)

Is it possible to edit these kinds of parameters directly in your blueprint for all firmware versions (say, 1.18 or 1.20)?

If so, adding them could make this a one-stop shop for keypad tweaks.

Just a community idea—curious what you think! Thanks for the great work, and props to the community.

Cheers,
A Community Member

Hi there @G2740 thanks for the ideas. I’m not sure how often those configuration changes would be done to necessitate a script. Did you have any scenarios?

Personally, I prioritize stability above all in my home automation so I’m wary to change the blueprint for small use cases.

patchrick84 · July 10, 2025, 1:31am

Thanks for this, @Noblewolf! I just started setting up Alarmo after letting my Ring subscription expire (because the price flippin’ doubled!) and I’d like everything to be as similar as possible for the ol’ WAF. The less I have to teach/she has to learn, the better! And I always found the keypad sounds to be pleasant, so I’m glad there’s an easy way to get them to play with your blueprint.

t3chguy · July 28, 2025, 3:40pm

I found that property 21 can be used to start a “Water Detected” call out which also flashes digits 1,3,7,9 and can be stopped with a property 21 + property_key 1 with value 0 (though it does read out “Water Detected” once more when doing so)

Property 20 also reads out “Low Temperature detected”

starmanj · November 10, 2025, 12:20am

This is great, it works great, but I tested the police sound and I cannot get it to stop. How do you turn it off? The reset button in the back works but there has to be a better way?

_Richard · November 10, 2025, 2:41am

Changing the arm state of the keypad will stop the sound.

starmanj · November 10, 2025, 3:43am

That’s the problem. I’m using it as a virgin keypad with no programming. Therefore, there is no arm and disarmed state. I’m using the buttons to trigger actions in Home Assistant.

hatchattack25 · December 2, 2025, 7:31pm

any solution to this?
