Can you use 2nd generation contact sensors with a 1st generation system
Hello @Dud69 ,
YES! You can mix both 1st and 2nd generation devices! Here is a quote from a online link to the Ring Support article page:
- "_ Are Ring Alarm 1st gen and 2nd gen devices compatible?" _
"Yes, all Ring Alarm security devices are compatible with every Base Station. You can mix and match 1st and 2nd generation Ring Alarm Contact Sensors, Motion Detectors, Range Extenders, Keypads and third-party devices with any Ring Alarm Base Station. These devices are designed to work together.
If you’ve started with a 1st generation Ring Alarm kit, you can add 2nd generation devices to your Alarm Base Station. If you buy a new 2nd gen Alarm Kit, you can add both 1st gen and 2nd gen devices to your Alarm Base Station."
