To play Bosch Smart Home alarm system signal tones and/or sirens via Echo devices, these must be set up in the Alexa app. This requires an installed Amazon Echo device.

To do this, go to the Alexa app and navigate to "Devices"  "Alarm system"  "Security sounds on the Echo". Activate "Entry and Exit Delays" and "Sirens" and select the devices on which the alarm sounds should be played.

All Amazon Echo devices can be used to play the alarm sounds. Output devices from other providers do not support this function.
