Gabe: Hey everybody.
This is Gabe at Security Baron.
Today, we're unboxing the Ring Alarm Wireless Home Security System.
[music]
Gabe: The Ring System Wireless Home Security and you can attach it to a lot of other products
like the Ring Video Doorbell.
Of course, use it through the app.
Let's go in and look at what the system looks like.
[background sounds only]
Gabe: First things first, how do you open the box?
There we go.
Not what I expected.
Check that out.
It's got that base here.
It's the side.
This is the base station for the Ring Alarm System.
Got the introductory packet.
Let's not forget the base station, a lot of pieces.
We'll get all these pieces out first.
I like that.
A little motion detector action, a keypad, should be a contact sensor
and the range extender.
Our adapters, another adapter here, and the motion detector install kit and the keypad
install kit.
Here are all the components that come with the Ring Alarm Wireless Home Security System.
There are other elements that you can add in but this is everything that comes in that
box.
Before we do anything, it's always good to look at the directions.
See what you have inside.
Love having the decals for the windows.
Your Getting Started guide, your warranties, and your How to Mount the System.
Put that aside, for now, window decal.
From my left to right, we've got the base station, a pairing button so you can pair
it to the wireless keypad, your reset.
You can hardwire it with an Ethernet cable to your Internet.
You've got a USB space here.
I'm assuming you can do various options with that.
The adapter we have here will go there.
You're going to want to think about where you put this.
This is the base station.
It's pretty simple.
It's got an interesting design.
Your speaker is a different color, it comes off as grey whereas the rest of the base station
is white which is interesting.
I don't know exactly what it looks like.
It's an interesting design.
Here, we've got our contact sensor which we'll show you when we set this up, how to put it
together.
We've got the adapter for the base station.
You've got your motion detector, a QR code to help set it up within the app, so they
can all work in conjunction.
White, pretty basic plastic and this is the wireless keypad.
I like it because you've got your QR code.
Most people like touch screens but I'm a fan of analog.
It works fine.
You have some illustrations on this one for your quick buttons so you can know, "OK, I'm
home," or "I'm away," and "Cancel."
It's good to have some of these things.
You can hit quickly and know what's going on and set it.
You've got your motion detector install kit, your keypad install kit.
Go and open those up, got your screws for your keypad.
You've got motion detector install kit, mounting bracket, mounting tape, anchors and mounting
screws.
All available there.
This is for this, and this is for this.
Finally, you've got the range extender so that you can extend the range on your products.
Also in a basic white.
I feel like I'm missing something here.
What am I missing?
That's this.
Of course, contact sensor install kit.
Your contact sensor, very important piece, put this here.
There you go.
I was like, "This is weird.
Your contact sensor's going to need two parts."
You put on your door or window.
The magnet lets you know when something's opened.
Here we go.
We got the other side of the magnet with the mounting bracket, mounting spacer, mounting
tape, anchors and mounting screws.
Now you can use this which is a great segue into the next point which is setting up the
Ring Alarm.
You're going to want to go and read through your guide.
The first thing you're going to do is download the app.
You'll take your phone.
Go into your app store for whatever type of device you have, Android or iPhone.
Download the app, and then you'll start to connect the pieces.
Set up the WiFi.
You're going to want to put your base station in a centralized location.
You're going to put your contact sensor either above a door or window, so you know when it's
being opened.
Put your motion detector in a corner so that it can see the motion going on in any given
room.
Your keypad, you're going to want to place wherever you're coming in out of your home
so that you can set it when you're going away and let it know that you're back home.
You want to put your range extender wherever you want to extend your range.
That's how you set up the Ring Alarm Wireless Home Security System.
Now that we've seen everything that comes with the Ring Alarm Wireless Home Security
System and how to set it up, I'm excited to see how well it performs.
Not only on its own but with some of the other components that let you make a robust, comprehensive
home security system.
