Cancer Research UK it is. Nice one.

Yeah I think it'll put it to 20. 10 is fine for me but perhaps not for the less nimble members of the household. You've been very helpful - thanks. If you would like to nominate a charity (either here or on PM) I will make a donation.

Any other tests I should do?

Right. So I did the codes as discussed. I then set the alarm and waited for it to arm. I then opened the door - double beeps almost immediately then it started the siren. I think this has worked

Ok - let's give it a go

Ok - change entry time to 10 secs This will be: Prog - eng code - Prog - 1 - 4 - 0 - 1 - reset- reset- reset- reset I think, agreed?

I think thats about the size of it yes.

Single beep. Zone 1 light on

Haha - yeah ok Page 16. So Engineer code - 1 (for alarm test) - 6 (for walk test) Then what am I looking for

Sure - how do I do that?

Ok - so went outside - waited 1 min Came back in - single beep starts when I open the door. It's been going for 1 min now. This is what I think the problem is. That single beep just keeps going, it never sets the alarm off.

Doing that now, give me a couple mins

Yeah - so after the double beep if I wander into the hallway the PIR on the stairs sees me and sets it off (siren noise starts, if i don't enter the code quickly the whole thing kicks off) Definitely set

After entering the code the single beep goes for 20 secs then followed by double beep for 10 secs

Sorry - realise I didn't directly answer. Let me do that now

If i just arm the system i get the single beep, then the double beep. Then it's armed. All good My issue is, if I then open the door, the single beep starts, but the alarm doesn't go off - it just keeps the single beep going for ages

Ok - when setting for nightime I do the following: alarm code - omit - 6 - set - set this disables the upstairs detector and arms the system do you want me to do this, or do the same but without quick set, ie alarm code - omit - 6 - wait for double beeps to end

I do have a stopwatch There are other people in the house, but they are controllable ;)

Yeah - I thought that is how it should work. I actually haven't messed with it at all, just for fear of mucking it all up! And yes, I am free to take a look at it now

Thanks for the reply. To summarise, I would like the alarm to go off after the door is opened and the disarm code is not entered after a defined period of time. Essentially this covers the scenario where someone forces the door and obtains entry to the house this way.
