Have Output 1 Say Violated Zone

[video321]

On my M1G, how can I have output 1 say what zone is violated during an alarm, but not the generic warning voice message?
You know...the one that goes something like "warning...warning, you have violated whatever...whatever...the authorities have been notified leave immediately" or something to that extent :unsure:

Thanks!

Only way I can see around the generic message is to generate a rule for the zone(s) that you specifically want announced, otherwise I see the burg message being played only, from going through all in RP2

I figured that would be the case, but after looking through RP2 myself I thought....it can't be and I have to ask!
I guess I could group sensors as "areas of the house" and have a rule to say which area accordingly. If I do this, would it pause the siren sound on out1 and fire off the rule, then go back to siren or would the rule be played on top of the siren? I was really hoping to have the zone violation repeated every 5 sec. or so that way everyone in the house would know what happened and where.

Does anyone use the standard zone/message voice during an alarm?

I know how to announce what zone is violated when the elk calls you during alarm.
let me try the same for output 1 and I will let you know if it works

Thanks, panamanian.
I figured out a way, but I'm interested to know what it is that you do.

After having a closer look around RP2 I wondered into the "Voice" settings and went under "system alarms" found "burglary message 1" and changed the 1st line of 200ms silence to {blank} and that worked perfectly! Originally I was going under globals-voice and toggeling there; which didn't meet my goals.

under "system alarms" burglary message (vm300) seems to be the default elk message during alarm
I have it as [insert condition] [say number]
that announces what type of alarm and the zone number

under "zone conditions " alarm (vm302) seems to be the default message that you will hear when the elk calls you during alarm
i have it as: alarm [say number]

you will then hear a simple " alarm zone 1" for example when the elk calls you but you won't hear the zone description

you also need a rule
whenever area (x) is armed away
and the burglar alarm in area(x) is active
then dial whoever and announce alarm[vm302]
