Texecom64 troublesome wireless PIR

[nong]

Hi

DIY install (i know)

I have a PIR that is sometimes detected on the walk test and sometimes not and it never seems to activate when the alarm is armed.

Can I delete this zone and relearn it or do i need to do them all again ?

Do I need to put the jumper to commission mode again to do this?

Not sure the best place to start

Many thanks

I'm not sure what you mean to be honest but I can only say it is in the entrance point and set as exit 1 with a timed arming mode
which may be the issue

No other devices in the entry/exit point, maybe I should use a door contact instead?

Thanks

It is never a good idea to have a PIR as entry device and even worse to have a wireless PIR on one.

however it set on e/e and timed exit is fine.

The wirelesss pir sleeps for 3 minutes after activation (AUTO) mode.
when the entry is started it would have to time pout before it cause an alarm, but probably wont activate if you have come into the house within a few minutes of leaving it.

I think l will change it to a door switch instead rather than a pir and troubleshoot,

Thanks for the info
