Pulling Multiple Battery Tabs While Trying to Set Up Alarm Devices

Devices that come in your Ring Alarm Kit are pre-paired and ready to set up with the included Base Station. As soon as you power on one of the devices, it will start communicating with the Base Station. The Base Station will look for the device and, when it finds it, will begin pairing.

While pairing a device, the Base Station stops looking for other devices. If multiple Alarm devices have their battery tabs removed and power on at the same time, they will conflict with each other and the Base Station won't be able to add them automatically.

If multiple devices were powered on at the same time, follow the instructions below for each individual device to pair it with your Alarm Base Station:
