did the system set after 30 seconds, 1 minute or still waiting?

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

sorry but if you wish to have free help from an installer then please follow instruction and advise on what happens.

If I go in half cocked, I could be lucky or or could miss something, your choice?

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

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

secureiam · 2 Jul 2020

the last 10 seconds is to warn you that the system is close to setting.

okay after the double beep it sets?

you need to go out for this one unless there is no PIR that can pick you up near the entry door

advise

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

secureiam · 2 Jul 2020

okay so far normal.

okay need to set the alarm and go outside, use the stop watch to indicate that its set, ie 40 seconds after starting it

before you walk in restart the stop watch, entry tones should have started, and by the time it gets to 40 seconds it should have set off, avoid the PIR

Doing that now, give me a couple mins

opge · 2 Jul 2020

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.

secureiam · 2 Jul 2020

okay, can you do a walk test from the panel

secureiam · 2 Jul 2020

only interested in the door for now

opge · 2 Jul 2020

Sure - how do I do that?

secureiam · 2 Jul 2020

its in the manual, you have to do some of the work
