A friend of mine had an alarm system fitted - an Infinite Prime with 5 PIR's and a door sensor.
Since it was fitted he has had problems with false alarms from the south facing rear of his house. When recalled the engineer never suggested a Dual PIR but scratched his head and just played with the programmer.
He has got over the problem with blinds and me re-activating (I'm the neighbour) during the evening if he's away.
The programmer has been interfered with so much that he is unsure what zone is what.
Trying to help I read the manual and performed a "walk test" and found only 4 active zones and tested them and documented each one and told him of the one not programmed.
The thing I find puzzling and would like an answer to is how sensitive should they be. On testing them I found that I could dance around for ages in front of them without activation yet could trigger them if standing still and only moving slightly.
Could someone explain if that is the norm. Thanks
