Sorry, but I´m completly new to this forum and I don´t have any experiences with my new Fibaro HC. I tried to configure my smoke alarms in a way, that all smoke alarms make alarm if only one smoke sensor recognizes smoke (or fire). But I didn´t find a way to handle this. I tried it with an association and with a scene. I think the scene the correct way to manage it, but I still don´t know how.

To make it more complicated, I tried to configure another alarm, where only the smoke alarms on the ground floor make alarm, when the smoke sensor of the living room was activated (because I don´t want to wake up the kid on the first floor with the smoke of the fire place in the evening). Awfully I didn´t manage this either.

Could anyone help me with my problem?

There is a very simple and unsatisfying answer to your question. This cannot be done, in any way.

You have to use a separate siren.

    Thanks for your fast reply. But it´s true - I didn´t expect this

    The sound of a single smoke alarm from the first floor is much too quite to wake me up. So there is no other way to use the other smoke sensors as a siren?

    I would have tried to use the alarm of a smoke sensor for a breach of the window sensors too...

    We all expected otherwise, it would be great to even use them as general sirens. Because one is indeed not loud enough, but several would be a good solution.

    I just placed two sirens with a scene that if one of my smoke sensors is breached that the siren will go off.
