Will the alarm be triggered by rolling over, i.e. have you experienced false alarm issues?

if the person lifts up to turn, it will go off, but normally shuts right off. I have not experienced false alarms. This was very beneficial to us.

As long as weight stays on the pad it won't trigger the alarm. The pad is the width of a hospital/twin bed so the person should always be on it when rolling side to side. I have had an occasion when the alarm has randomly gone off when the person is not even in bed - but I can't be positive it wasn't one of our pets triggering it.

No not really,you just have to be careful in listening for it. The alarm is not "soft" but it isn't necessarily load either.

My mother was not able to roll over, but the akarm doesn't go off until you lift up off if it. No false alarms, it worked very well for us.

The sensor is proximity based. There is generally an inch of movement allowed before the alarm will trigger. You can also fudge the sensor about an inch to get the alarm to trigger immediately if desired. The flexibility allows the sensor to be mounted backwards or offset for unusual mounting locations.

I think so - that was actually the problem I was having. It stopped me from moving so much that I woke up when I would have otherwise subconsciously turned over. But that no doubt depends on what kind of sleeper you are. I think it'll certainly stop you from rolling over :-)

I had no problems with false alarms. I suppose if it was on a door that was very loose in its frame or a gate that might sway in the wind, it is possible. For a typical home/apartment type door, there should be no problem. The only issue I had was not being able to turn it off, without triggering it briefly.

I don't use the alarm but did have some trouble with the time staying set. This seems to have been resolved with the latest update.

It is supposed to stop. For any reason the item is in slight motion, of course the alarm will continue to sound. Also, the battery can be going dead and will continue to go-off until completely dead. Check battery for voltage capacity. Otherwise item could be defective.

I tried to do the same thing with the same app and found it to be unreliable. Sometimes nothing would happen when the alarm was scheduled to activate. It may be the tune in app itself, as I've had some startup issues with it.

Yes, it happens. Depending on how you adjust it, any event that shakes the device will make it sound. Good thing is it stops by itself, as soon as the shaking ends. It isn't the kind of alarm that sets off and goes on and on. It is a very simple mechanism that works exactly like an electronically amplified church bell. As soon as the little metal hammer stops touching the side walls, the sound stops.You can turn sensitivity down, but that could make you miss smaller vibrations from real quakes.

I didn't see anything in the manual that it would provide an alert. No failure yet, so I can't say from personal experience.

Yes. This is function is called Virtual Leash. Alarm can be sounded when either the leash is broken or connected.

Yes. The alarm is triggered when a sensor changes state. So if you leave it open and don't touch it, it will not trigger the alarm

Yes it does...! And a very loud one at that, also some of swan door and window sensors have individual alarms that you may set so that you will know where the breaking in is coming from by setting those alarm sensors to activate as it is opening or being broken in to from.... I hope this covers any other questions on these well made alarms for the DIY'ers ... Be safe....!

No. The window alarms have a 3-switch slide button on the left hand side of the larger unit. The up position switches it off and the middle and lower positions are two different types of alarms.

You should be fine ..... put the cover on then activate the alarm It work with motion or a jolt to the bike.I have the same alarm on both my bikes.

In order for it to call out if an alarm is tripped you have to have it connected to a landline. Once it connected though, you can program it to call a cellphone. (I've had a few false alarms and got calls on my cell). Hope this helps!

I havent tried to set it up to send me a text, but if you have the phone apprunning in the background it will alarm when motion is triggered.

No - install on the wall and when turned on with fob it's alarm is motion activated.We used it to alert us when dad was getting out of bed. He had Alzheimer's.
