Model: Tapo C420  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

It would be useful to be able to start the alarm of the camera from smart action or automation as well. is it possible? For example, when I send the hub the command to sound (for example because a door has been opened) it would be useful to make the cameras sound as well. Is it possible? 

I already use "privacy mode" to turn off the camera but it's not my need. I have several camera in the garden, I need that the cameras are already on and the alarm rings only in some condition. 

Another way can by the automatization of the home/away scenario.

 

When I leave home I only want to click a button and all the smart actions run tu turn on the door checking and so on. Is it possible?

 

Thanks a lot!

Hi,
Currently, some of the Tapo Cameras support the Play Sound action on the Smart Action feature, and you can set the camera to alarm via the Shortcut or Automation entries.
However, the Tapo C420 does not support the Play Sound action now, and it may support this action via firmware updates in the future. It's recommended to keep your camera up to date.
Best Regards
