4. Set up Assisted Monitoring.
What is Assisted Monitoring?
Assisted Monitoring sends automated calls to
you and your emergency contacts whenever
your Ring Alarm detects a security issue and
sounds the alarm. A subscription to Ring
Protect Plus is needed before you can sign
up for Assisted Monitoring. Your subscription
will also give you Cellular Backup in case your
internet goes down.
How do you get Assisted Monitoring?
1. After you add your Base Station, open a
web browser, visit ring.com/protect-plans
and subscribe to the Ring Protect Plus plan.
2. When you’re done, use the Ring app to
set up Assisted Monitoring, then continue
setting up the rest of your Ring Alarm.
What is self monitoring?
If you skip Assisted Monitoring, your Ring
Alarm will be self monitored. In an emergency,
your Alarm will sound, but it won’t signal the
monitoring service, and your emergency
contacts won’t receive automated calls
notifying them about the emergency.
If you choose self monitoring now, you can
go back and sign up for Assisted Monitoring
at any time.
See the chart on page 21 for an in-depth
comparison of Assisted Monitoring vs.
self monitoring.
