I cant tell which side of hse there has been movement...bought two of the same...HOW to get separate sensors that don't activate both alarms..????

Just one of these sucks. Two suck twice as much.They are good at detecting movement though. They detect cars pulling in the driveway, people walking up the driveway, animals as small as squirrels in my driveway or in the neighbor's yard, and tree leaves moving in the slightest of breezes. I think they can detect ghosts too. I look out the window after the alarm sounds and there is no one there.

Just get 2 of these it's cheaper...http://www.amazon.com/INSTEON-Wireless-Open-Close-Sensor/dp/B003IHTZEY/ref=pd_sim_hi_8

Yes it does. Be sure to mark each sensor in the booklet so you will know which sensor went off. The monitoring company can tell you which station also. They will call you if a battery becomes disconnected and tell you which sensor to check, this happened to me. Also, don't install a motion sensor between the entry door and the keypad unless you plan on using the keyfob soon as you enter, this happened to me.

It is important to adjust the sensitivity on the unit. I would turn the adjustment until it alarms and then back off about half turn. That way it is pretty sensitive.

These are a little more confusing than the original units. The red and black still go to the + and - terminals (power). The remaining two wires are the output from the device which actually trips the alarm panel. The reason for the extra terminals is to maintain supervision of the device which puts the alarm zone into trouble when the sensor reaches the end of its life. You connect the wires to the NO and C and do not use the NC terminal (these are the three terminals on the other side of the detector). Next you put a short wire jumper between the C terminal where the alarm wire is and the NO terminal next to the power connection. Finally you will have to splice a short piece of wire to one end of the resistor and connect the wire to the NO terminal with the alarm wire and the other end of the resistor to the C terminal by the power connection. If everything is correct the alarm zone should ready ready and not in trouble. After placing your account on test, press and hold the test button for about 10 seconds. You will hear it beep a few times and then you will hear a click. At this point it should set off the alarm. Good luck!

You don't. I returned this tstat because when I received it, I found the circuit board didn't have a floor sensor spot. It is often shown with radiant floors, on Amazon, something which I gave Amazon feedback about, but Amazon basically told me that if people buy the two together, even if it is wrong, their system will group it. The way this one checks temp is by an air temp sensor built into the unit, so your floor can get baking hot, before it really does much to the air, which means while it CAN work, it CANNOT work well or efficiently for radiant. Options include ones like Sunstat which makes a digital and a analog version. I have the digital, and it works great. Secondly...when installing a floor sensor (before you set your tiles), install 2 spaced several feet apart. Run both wire leads to the thermostat, label one as backup, and don't connect it, and use the other. If you ever have to replace a tile and accidentally cut the sensor wire, it is useless...and having a backup sensor already run, makes switching the wiring a MUCH cheaper and faster solution, than breaking up a row of tiles in order to lay a new sensor under the tile again. I got a second sensor wire for around 10 bucks, and (knock on wood) have not needed to use it. Also, if your sensor wire comes from the manufacturer with a short or break in it, because of the time you wait for the floor to cure before activating it, you won't find out about a problem until after you have done all the work...then having a problem can be pretty frustrating.

The sensors might be dirty or perhaps the unit is too close to a vent or air source. I took the front panel off of mine and blew on the sensor then relocated it slightly. It hasn't happened since.

Both sensors are the same part number. You either replaced the wrong sensor, both are bad, or you have an electrical issue.

I have one installed in my upper level. I did have a freeze issue in the basement which stopped my heat. The alarm did go off and call but I wish I would have had one in the lower level to prevent some damage. If you find an answer please let me know as I too am considering having two on the same phone line. Will that work?

email the company and tell them what is happening.I had to do it with ours. we also were having problems with intermittent alarm going off when there is no movement with cameras. the company has been great in helping us and repaired and or replaced them. that is the only thing I could tell you to do. but overall I did not think that there would be so much wrong. return the whole thing if you can.

The sensors don't matter, just match your old remote.Pay attention to the frequency of the remote. There are different frequencies for different doors even though the remotes look the same on the outside. Check the back of the remote or the door opener.

I bought only the sensor. I'm on my second sensor now I got about a years use out of the first one.

We have 2 (our house by code will need 9 total alarms but this issue has us paused on ordering more). Both had multiple false alarms within the first 30 days. We returned each (separately) and were sent new units. Neither has false alarmed and it's been almost a year since the first one (we got them right when they came out).

yes. I have 2 openers side by side and I had the same issue. I called lift master several times. Finally I got someone that was knowledgable enough to help me. he said that if the openers are too close together this problem occurs. He suggested moving one so that they are about 18" apart. The other option is to turn off the sensor on one.

You may need to put a padding btw one side of the sensor to make it even. Both parts must be really close.

Take the sensor you removed and install it on the opposite side. If light goes out that was the bad sensor. If still on you possibly have a bad harness.

I had to replace one a few years ago. I believe I reset it so many times that the reset failed to function properly. I read Hippie Bob's suggestion and wish I had tried that before I discarded the original sensor. Good luck .
