Set the Mode to the leave setting. Enter the 4 digit code, close the door (you have 45 seconds to close the door when leaving) When you return and open the door, you have 30 seconds to re enter the code before alarm will go off. Hope this helps.

I like that it goes off. It is in my bedroom. I have a security keypad that won't go off and the light is annoying.

I got a hold of Skylink, they said if the alarm is activated by an intruder the alarm will automatically shut off after 3 minutes. However the alarm will remain activated unless disarmed and will again go off for another three minutes if a door is opened or until you manually disarm the alarm on the keypad

I have not done that , but it makes sense to me, that when the wall mount is active, so is the siren.( it is connected directly by speaker wire), When I forget to disable, it goes off every time. I have to rush to disable, so the neighbors don't call the police ! Good luck, hope this helps. RWM

You have to move it for the alarm to trigger. Opening the door won't do it, but closing it will. You can adjust how sensitive it is, and how long it takes to arm after turning the key. So if you move it, it will start beeping and if you don't disarm it, it will trigger the alarm. Don't know how long the 9V battery lasts, because I just got mine a few weeks ago.

Yes, if it's in timer mode just push override quickly once for temporary off mode. If you want it to stay off permindent then hold down the override till solid circle turns solid in window - then it's Off.Hope this helpsBobby

Yes. Once the one in the basement goes off all nest smoke detectors will go off. The only way to silence the alarm is to go to the detector in the basement and turn it off.

You will disarm basically by pressing 'off' on the keypad followed by your pass cord. Or just press 'off' on the keychain. My system is simple. That's all I know.

no- good question, if you are outside, and want to come in. the alarm will LOUDLY go off, and then once you walk IN the house you can reach to shut it off. IF you are INthe house and want to leave, you can press the bypass button, but you will need to close the door completely in a few seconds, or the alarm will go off. ( example--you can not go out and leave the door open b/c you're coming right back...you MUST close door as soon as you pass through it)

You can program in the time you want it to cook and it will automatically turn off. Nothing that's plugged in is completely safe but I do leave the house while it's cooking. I just love this product!

My is at the entry of my house - also not such a great idea although it will alert you if the power is disconnected from it and there's a battery back up -- a burglar could still have enough time to take off, unplug it, and remove the chip before the system has time to react or sound. I think the best thing to do (and I need to do it myself) is maybe install some screws around it so it cannot be removed from the wall too easily or too quickly. I'm worried if move it far from the entrance or "hide" it -- it will be found anyway as soon as the alarm sounds or I won't have enough time to get to it and turn it off before it sounds. The only issue I see with this alarm is that a burglar w/ half a brain could destroy it before it was time to do anything more than send you text message that the power has been disconnected from it -- but it will also send you that message when there's a power outage.

This device does not have an on off switch. It uses a metal pressure plate that slides in between the door and the frame. You have to maually disarm the device.

You only put it on the door when you're at home (inside), not when you go out. It's useful at night when you go to bed as extra security and aren't expecting anyone to try to come through the door.

You would need to unplug it do de-activate it. The settings remain in the system. I unplug mine when the lawn service is here or if I'm out in the yard working. However, my earlier review would change to a degree. I've bought 4 of the sensors and two of them did not work right or either the base has bad circuits. False alarms, no alarm, etc. Two work really well, the other two have not been satisfactory. It's a pretty good basic system, no sophistication at all. Minimally does the job.

as far as I know it only has a flashing red light on the base unit as well as the phone. if it did have a audible warning i'd certainly disarm it first thing for that would drive me nuts. do you still have the operations manual!

The keypad will seperate from the mounting plate, start at the bottom, it takes a little gentle prying. Turn off base unit, alarm will sound. Unsrew base plate and remount.... I have done it 3 times... I still have a problem with mine, even after a replacement unit, it will arm but not disarm the system. If you have any info, reply.

If you arm it in the away mode, it will have a delay so you can enter and exit. However, if you want it to immediately go off, put the switch on the side of the unit to "stay" and enter your code while the door is still open. Then close the door as you leave, and then it will immediately go off when you enter.
