How SOS Alarm works with eGate Controller Pro 5

SOS Siren Alarm 

The SOS Siren plugs into the ECP5’s Siren port (3.5 mm jack). No app pairing needed for the speaker — just plug it in. 

Features: 

• Arm Mode: When activated, any gate opening triggers the siren + push notification to all users 

• Long-distance app-controlled: Turn alarm on/off via Wi-Fi from anywhere in the world 

• Gate open alert: Get notified when the gate is opened 

Remote Trigger Sources: 

1. Remote Controller — Button D (See Section 9.1)

Lost remote? Remove it from the list — it can no longer control your gate. 

All remote actions are logged in History with the remote’s name. 

2. Home Switch — Button C (See Section 9.2)

9.3 Wireless Close Switch 

CLOSE SWITCH REQUIREMENT 

The Wireless Close Switch only works when using Eden Robot Brand Mode, or when an eGate Wireless Outdoor Sensor is paired with the ECP5 (See Section 9.5). 

Designed for the garage/car porch. Two dedicated buttons: 

• Button 1: Close Gate Only 

• Button 2: Open Alarm Only 

To pair: Subdevice tab → Select “Close Switch” card → Press “Add Device” → Press any button on the switch. 

Multi-Gate Mode ON and OFF functions remain the same for the Close Switch. 

Heartbeat Beep Setting 

The ECP5 has a heartbeat buzzer that beeps every ~10 seconds to confirm the device is alive. This sound can be turned off: 

1. Open Smart Life App → ECP5 device → Subdevice tab. 

2. Select the “Siren” card. 

3. Toggle “Heartbeat Beep” OFF to silence the periodic beeping. 

Note: Turning off the heartbeat beep does not affect the siren alarm or pairing mode buzzer — it only silences the periodic heartbeat sound.
