I added my Doorbell G410 to HomeKit and get a security system (see screenshot).
Now I want e.g. that I change the ringtone for the different scenes.
My goal is to turn the doorbell silent (volume to 0% or play a silent mp3.file) when it is night.
The trigger should be in Apple Home.

@anfrage_satzung_5x It sounds like you’re looking to customize your G410 doorbell’s behavior within Apple HomeKit. While the reference information doesn’t directly address muting the doorbell via a security system in Apple Home, here’s a potential approach based on the capabilities of the G410 and HomeKit integration:
-
HomeKit Automation: You can set up an automation in the Apple Home app to achieve your goal. Create a scene that triggers at night, which can either lower the volume of the doorbell or play a silent mp3 file if that’s an available option in your setup.
-
Custom Ringtone Upload: If your goal includes playing a silent mp3 file, you might need to explore the function of custom ringtone uploads. To update ringtones, generally, you would navigate to the Aqara Home app, select the G410 device settings, and upload your desired ringtone there. However, integrating this with HomeKit scenes might require additional configuration.
-
Automation Example: For setting the volume to 0% or changing the ringtone at night, you might create an automation where the condition is the time of day (e.g., after sunset), and the action involves adjusting the doorbell settings.
If these options don’t seem to fully address your needs, please feel free to engage the community for additional insights or creative solutions.

@anfrage_satzung_5x It sounds like you’re looking to create a smart automation in Apple Home to adjust your G410 doorbell’s ringtone—specifically silencing it at night. That’s a great idea for a more personalized home experience!
After checking the available information, we don’t currently have details on setting up ringtone or volume adjustments via Apple Home for the G410. The G410 does support automation actions like stopping the ringtone or using custom ringtones (), but these are typically managed through the Aqara Home app.

However, the current reference information we have doesn’t cover details about controlling the doorbell’s ringtone or volume specifically through Apple Home’s security system or scenes.
