I cant get the alarm to stop sounding ! I have taken the battery out and used the default code and it stops the alarm but it is still set.

is the alarm setting on its own when you plug in the battery? It should only activate when you hold down B, maybe you got a defective one or you have a battery that is almost dead. I would try a new battery. I ordered 2 at the time since there so cheap and I got 2 working alarms! only thing i can think that would make them better is if they gave off a electric shock.

I'm not quite sure I understand the question. When you remove the battery, the alarm is turned off, correct? When you replace the battery, the alarm goes off as soon as you move it? One possible solution. Remove the battery and leave it out for about 1/2 hour. The code automatically resets to ABCA. When you plug the battery back in, press the A button and hold until it beeps. Then input your new code within 5 seconds.If you are able to turn off the unit by using the default code, it should not reset again until you press and hold the B button. That's what arms the alarm.

I had the same problem. Drove me nuts. First, I had to return it to amazon. Mine came all the way from China with a custom label on it.Took almost 3 weeks. I recommend that you DO NOT DEAL WITH A COMPANY THAT DOES NOT HAVE STATESIDE INVENTORY. Second, I ordered from another store on Amazon and requested that the alarm be tested before it is shipped and shipped within the US. The new one I got worked fine. They also need to get a person to write the instructions using understandable grammar. It works good and is loud and a cheap deterrent. Besides the alarm I still use square link chain and lots of cable. I have a padlock that has an alarm in it too. I know it is overkill but I still have bike. I had the same problem. Drove me nuts.

Honestly I was disappointed in mine after returning it twice I now just use two u locks and a cable lock because this was a cheap quality waste of time and money! Simply put if you love your bike lock the hell out of it!

Kathi I don' use my alarm but it should be in the instructions. Just wait and someone else who has one will answer. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Just turn it so the zero is facing up. The alarm should stop when you do that

I have had similar issues. My alarm has went off at incorrect times and twice now the alarm did not go off at all. I have since switched to a radio station for the alarm instead of my iTunes. I have not had a problem since.

If (and that's a big IF) you can manage to get it turned on and close the door without setting it off, the only way to turn it off is to open the door and turn it off. The alarm WILL go off.

Know what I will have to look at mine. I simlpy haven't paid attention to that. Now I have a question for you. Do you know how to make it stop beeping all the time when there is nothing wrong? Perhaps the room temp is going outside of the perameters established. hahaha. I'll get back with you asap,Steph

I tried to use without alarm but foind it would not dial without the 9 volt battery installed. I suppose you could disable the speaker or cover it with tape.

On the one page instruction manual it says - "Immediately after inserting the batteries, the desired 4 digit security code must be set, simply press the desired 4 digits on the keypad." Now here is the "Note" following that sentence. "Note: After removing the batteries, press number 4 before installing new ones. The alarm must be re-programmed with your security code each time the batters are removed or replaced." I would say, remove your batteries, press number 4, insert batteries and immediately put in your desired 4 digit security code (the new code). I would think that removing the batteries and re-installing them is like programming it for the first time. If that is true then this is what it says under "Battery Installation" - "after you insert the last of the 4 AA batteries, the alarm will beep very loudly to indicate that the batteries are installed properly. Then immediately press your desired 4-digit code on the pad." If the first instructions doesn't work I'd try what it says under "Battery Installation". FYI - I mounted my units on the wall with the 3M velcro tape that can removed and moved without damaging walls. I wrote the security code on the back with a super fine Sharpie marker. I figure someone trying to break in will not think to remove the unit and look for the code when the alarm is sounding...they'll hopefully be running away :) I hope this helps. If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask. ... Good luck!

I can only speak for the chime setting because we do not use the alarm. If the batteries are running low the chime won't work all the time, its sporadic. With fresh batteries I have had no issues. When the batteries are running low you get a warning, the chime only plays the first portion of the song, then it makes a low battery beep. This will go on for days or weeks until you replace them. The longer you wait the less reliable the chime is with the old batteries being used.

Push the center bottom row button. It should shut of immediately. If not, remove one battery, place it back in and redo your time and alarm times.

Hi, It sounds like you had a power failure or lighting strike to the system. This happened to me and the alarm continued to sound-off. The only way to stop the alarm from ringing is to disconnect it from the main power source. Rotate the entire alarm counter-clockwise until it is unsecured from the base. There is a socket plug connector to the power source. Unplug. If this the only unit in the house that is sounding, it is defective and needs to be replaced.

Its actually the top or first button you use on the remote to set the alarm. Press it until you hear the beep sound. If you want it to be less sensitive press it again until you hear another beep sound. It will sound a little different than the first. I believe you can also press it a third time for even less sensitivety however I've never needed to do a third. Good luck!

it's really hard to say since you didn't give much details it depends on what the message is giving you and also what color the light is I have had that problem but the message said check ink or it gave me an error and all I would do is press and hold the stop button until the alarm light goes off. Sorry I can't help much further without details but try that.

Those are my sentiments exactly. I installed the alarm a little over a year ago and have looked around for something with a louder audible but have been unsuccessful in finding anything that will resolve the weak electronic chime that comes with the system. Maybe if the manufacturer gets enough requests for a louder more distinctive sound they will provide a replacement or at least market a chime that's louder

if you touch the alarm when it's on it will go off and will scare the crap out of the theif before he can turn it off it is very loud. i have placed it to where it can't be seen so there is no chance of anyone turning it off with out alerting me.

The alarm has to be reset each day. Press the alarm 1 button to set it on at night and again in the morning to turn off.

It sounds like there may be an issue with the device. My unit simply shuts off with no alarm whatsoever. You may want to contact the seller for more information and/or an exchange.
