It isn't supported in Indigo 6. It might be supported in Indigo 7, although I am having some difficulties with it which are either firmware issues or mine is malfunctioning.

Aeon Labs doorbell gen5
Set the default doorbell ringtone.
Select a ringtone to play.
Set the repetitions.
Set the volume of ringtone.

I see people doing this elsewhere. I used Action Type Turn On(Light/Appliance Controls) Then selected the doorbell.
I was hoping that when I selected the doorbell, I would see further options propagate. :(
How can I do this with Indigo?

Hello,
Thanks. I was originally a SmartThings user until I switched to Indigo.

A few weeks ago, I finally got rid of the Aeon doorbell and replaced it with a wired button and Aeon dry contact sensor.

Luckily I left the old wires when I switched to wireless doorbells.

The doorbell button closes the contacts between two wires which run down to the basement where I have the dry contact sensor. The sensor generates a Z-wave event in Indigo and I have Indigo flash some lights and set off a siren. I even have Indigo send me an email so I know if someone came to the house while I was away.

This works far better than the Aeon doorbell ever did – no missed presses and no false triggers.

Barry.

Those are all configuration parameters for that module. You'll have to do it with multiple actions: first actions that set the configuration parameters you want (via the action type Z-Wave->Modify Configuration Parameter), then finally an action to turn on the door bell (like you currently have).
