Motion sensors programming
Posted May 14th, 2011 by jalar
Can the motion sensors be programmed separately? From my reading it appears that when you are in "home" mode that all motion sensors are turned off. If you want to protect a shed/car garage or an used guest room, can they be programmed to remain on during "home" mode?

I mounted the center of the motion sensor exactly 5 feet from the floor and in a corner for the best possible chance of detection.
I am wondering if I can make 1 of the two entry sensors and the single Passive Infrared sensor instantly trigger the alarm since if either of those is tripped, there is definite a break-in.
I want to be able to have a delay only on the main door sensor to give me a chance to disarm the system.
I apologize profusely if this has been covered elsewhere and if I just didn't see it.

Thanks for all the helpful posts! Unfortunately, you cannot currently set an entry delay time for specific sensors, just for the entire system. You would have to lower the entry delay to about 1-5 seconds and really utilize your keychain remote for disarming the main door. Instant trigger for specific sensors will be available on the new Base Station!

I keep seeing references to a new Base Station. Is there an ETA for when that will be available?
If I buy the system now, will there be any trade in option, or discount? Will the new base station work with all current keypads, sensors, sirens?
I really want to get the SimpliSafe System, but really want some of the new features like instant alarm on some sensors.
Thanks,
