Hi,
Fitted a Yale premium alarm kit at the weekend (well ran out of light before fitting the decoy box!), felt very pleased with ourselves.
I have a question about the "entry" device. If the entry device has been activated, if you then activate a burglar device before you reach the control panel to disarm, will the full burglar alarm then go off, even though you are in the 20sec countdown?
Reason being that with no mains socket in the hall and no wiring/electrical knowledge, we fitted the control panel just inside the lounge. The front door is the entry device, but the PIR in the lounge will usually be activated when taking a step into the lounge to disarm the panel.
At the moment I have made the lounge PIR also an entry device to avoid sounding the siren (did not think to test this until after a sociable hour!), but ideally I would like to make it a home omit device.
Can I do this without setting off the siren every time I set foot in the lounge to disarm the system?
(I guess keyfobs would solve the problem but with being burgled we are watching the pennies at the moment!)
Thanks very much helpful people!
