The item has an alarm clock and hourly chime functions, and also can act as a stopwatch for use.

I cannot answer that question since I haven't tried to fall asleep to music. All I can report is that there are options for the alarm setting.

I looked at the manual and believe all you have to do is turn the sleep timer off. When sounds are on in the continuous mode, you can only use a buzzer as an alarm if you also use the unit as your wake up alarm. If you go to the sound oasis website, you can download the manual. look at page A-10.

Yes! You can put on alarm or chime and shut either one off when you want to.

No, and the alarm is extremely loud. I use the chime it is loud enough to here if my ASD son is entering an area of the home he is not permitted to.

Yes, it's called test mode but works just fine. It's meant to test a sensor but I leave it on all the time to be notified when my kids open a door. It's actually a dual chime like ding...dong. Not ding. I don't have a motion sensor installed though. If you are familiar with programming alarm panels you can configure the motion not to chime when in test mode.

The chime is pretty loud. You can definitely hear it from another room. It chimes only once every time you open the door just to alert you. The alarm though is continuous.

The alarm can be turned on and off from inside. The bell/ chime is probably loud enough to wake you up, but shouldn't be "scary." It reminds me of the sound when you would drive into a full service gas station.

Yes, the slide swich to change from alarm to chime is easy to find location and can be actuated after installing. A curious child may tamper it.

I think the alarm is simple to set, but I use only as a bedside radio, not an alarm clock.

Well, the alarm sounds without phone service, but the system cannot alert you via telephone if you're not home if you don't have it hooked up to a telephone. It's quite a good service, and CONSIDERABLY less expensive than other systems. I had a national alarm company for years and it was thousands of dollars, but this works VERY well.

I don't think there is any chime or buzzer in it. Mine just shuts off Works great!

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.

No it doesn't have a vibrating alarm. In fact, the alarm it does have has a medium-pitch sound that is ideal for a light sleeper who doesn't need drums banging to wake up.

If you had the receiver near you, I'm pretty sure it would wake you. In my case I'm definitely awakened, but that's because of a Shepherd dog who starts barking excitedly when it goes off. She hears it quite well even a few rooms away.
