How do I turn this unit to the vibrate only mode? The alarm scared my kid to death.

If you open your unit to the battery compartment, you will find a three way switch. This switch allows you to change the mode from alarm and vibrate to alarm only or vibrate only.

Open the case like you are replacing the batteries and there is a black sliding switch. I think there are three settings. Slide it to the desired setting and you should be good. Good luck.

I don't think you can. Mine stopped working completely after a month or so but only ever had the loud alarm mode.

You take off the back, where the battery is. There is a switch that you can push to vibrate only.

Open the battery cover and remove the batteries behind them you will see a small switch there are three settings v , va or a

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

This is just the vibration sensor. It needs to be connected to an alarmsystem.

I have not yet tried this, but have you tried using the vibrate feature without the prongs screwed in? And if not try it. If that does not work then I would try to pry the shock buttons out of the remote so they can't be accidentally pressed. Hope these suggestions help :)

You can turn it off on the remote receiver. There is a switch that can change the alert tone or turn the receiver off.

Do not use the alarm, but when it does go off it is like a buzz. Will wake you up if close.

This particular unit is vibrate and sound only. We got it because we did not want the shock capability.

Yes, it can be put in vibrate only mode. I love it because it vibrates even through my ipod arm band and I can feel it while doing intense interval training.

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.

Turn the unit off and then turn it back on with a single press. Holding down the button for two seconds when turning it on puts it in silent mode. A single short press will not put it in silent mode.

The same thing is happening to me....I just purchased this yesterday and can't seem to get the alarm to work either. What was your solution??

Ours does vibrate so it sounds like it's not working correctly. I would suggest trying new batteries. I think when our batteries died the vibrating stopped first.

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.

I returned this alarm, and I think it's for the same reason you're posting your question: I couldn't turn off the alarm - when triggered - and get it to work in a silent mode. I don't think I could position it so my cat wouldn't set it off, and yet work as intended.

There is a little black button beside the battery compartment, behind the stand. I think I had that problem once and hit it by mistake probably trying to take the battery out to stop the alarm, but then found it in the directions.

Same here....the alarm is way too sensitive......I ended up pulling the battery and using the lock without the alarm
