When does the barking dog/alarm shut off? Automatically when intruder is out of range?

Yes, also when there is no motion, if intruder stands still within range it will stop.
1817432
Yes, but it depends on proximity. Also if you set the sensitivity too high it can trigger based on ambient factors or vibrations in the floor.

The barking was intermittent for hours, with no humans setting it off. I assumed it might have been reacting to a tree branch but regardless, it was useless to me. I adjusted the sensitivity dial but could not find a "sweet spot". When I turned the sensitivity down, it would not bark at all, even when I stood 3 feet from it.

Yes it does. Also, remember, 1 dog will growl and bark and as the intruder gets nearer both dogs start barking at a louder and meaner bark. It takes a while to get it set. I had set it in 1 place by the back door and each time I walked into the kitchen it would set it off. I changed it's position and using the microwave set it off. Now, just the dishwashing machine sets it off. But you just have to work at getting it in the right place and setting the sensitivity level. Once you get it set right, it will be well worth it.

The barking stops as soon as there is no motion detected. There is capability to manually set it. The setting remain when power is turnoff and then on. I use a WeMo switch to remotely turn in on and off. However this works only if you do not install batteries. Hope this helps.

Yes. Remove the cover from your Pitboss and locate the box containing four small toggle switches on the left side under the battery compartment. Move switch number 1 to the down position. Now turn your unit off, then power back on to reset. Your audible alarm is now off.

No, not really. When the infrared transmitter detects movement...the receiver sounds. But if you, the person who set the alarm system up initially, knows this (as you obviously do) it is no big deal. The thing chimes and you say "Oh yeah, cool. My alarm works." But I think I understand why you ask, because if you have a true siren-type of alarm, you need a delay of a few seconds to turn the bloody thing off because you don't want to hear it triggered. After all, it is "you" entering the alarmed site and not an intruder. But this 1Byone system is more for when you are home or in your garage and you wish to know that somebody else is within range of the transmitter and they set it off (not you). Kind of like when your dog barks at a person approaching. There is no "delay" so to speak, but you thank your dog at any rate because he/she warned you of said interloper (or whomever...could be an in-law:). But no, to answer the question, no delay feature. If it detects, it beeps. Low or High setting. Still a good system though. I've become accustomed to the chimes as it has detected my movement on the order of 100 to 1, me vs. ?

The low battery alert on these smoke detectors is a small beep. However, when they sound off due to a fire or test of the alarm, they are very loud and repeating. Of course, that's a good thing as you want both you and your dog to be running from the alarm and out of the house. They are truly the best smoke detectors we've ever owned.

If I unplug the unit, the alarm goes activates. If I plug it back in, the alarm goes off. Hope this helps.

I set mine to silent. I can be set to an annoying pinging alarm, a 'dog barking' or a message which you record.

If the sensor is triggered, it goes off for about 15 to 20 seconds, then it stops on its own until it is triggered again. There is a mute button on the back of the control box, so if you want to cancel the alarm sound sooner you can...

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

No. If chime is turned on, the control panel will beep. If the alarm is armed then the siren will go off. But the contact itself makes no sound.

Hi! No, unless that door was never opened. The alarm would go off anytime you closed the door, so unless you're just protecting that door and not using it--I wouldn't buy it for that purpose.

It shuts off automatic when it is not on the base and there is no blue tooth signal but I don't know the time

It seems to only be activated by the dog closest to the collar. I've barked loudly right next to my dog and it has not gone off. But it has gone off without anyone including my dog barking, so it is a little unpredictable.

If the room is right next door, yes you could hear the alarm. Yes, the alarm goes off until you turn off the unit.

I lined it up, opened the door. When the alarm went off, I took the backing off and stuck it permanently. It works perfectly. Someone opened my door one night and I heard the alarm from upstairs. The intruder left promptly. Also, it alerts when children leave or enter the house, or leave the door open.

Yes, your dog would definitely set off this alarm. Very sensitive, which is what I wanted.

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)

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.
