Hi,
Sorry if this has already been answered, but I couldn’t find anything.
I recently bought a Yale smart alarm and started to install it today. The door sensors all work fine, when I open the doors it sets the alarm of if it is armed. The PIR sensors though, just rarely seem to detect anything, I can walk around, wave my arms, even climb the ladder and wave in front of it without setting it off. Sometimes this will, but more often than not it won’t. We have the pet PIR sensors as we have cats, but surely they should be more sensitive than that. I did mount them a little higher than in the instructions as our ceilings are about 2.4m high (mounted about 2.3m instead of 1.8-2.1m), but surely that can’t be making them useless? Anyone have any ideas/suggestions about what I could be doing wrong? As far as I am aware it’s not the 1 minute snooze thing as I have been walking around for minutes.
Cheers
