Need help clearing tampered sensors

I have two XHS2-SE sensors that have the "was tampered" warning on them now. One is on a window. Not sure how that got triggered, I think maybe a cat was playing with it and somehow set it off. The second sensor is on a nearby door. That was had a low battery and while replacing it, somehow I triggered the tamper sensor (even though I didn't think I got close to that switch).

Anyway, now I'm stuck with two sensors in the "was tampered" mode, with no way to clear them.

I really wish there was some way to clear this from the touchscreen console. Seems like I'm not alone in this. Getting them cleared out appears to be a pain [Edited: "Language"]. I talked to a Live Agent and their solution was to just send me two new sensors. That seems extremely wasteful. Surely there's another way?

Hello, @JiunweiC if the error will not clear we should also consider scheduling an appointment. That way we can replace the sensors or fix the issue in person as needed.
