Activate alarm with PIR and KeyFob

Hello,


I have a zwave PIR sensor near the door and I manage the Alarm system with keyfobs. They work great but I have a litle problem. When I try to activate the alarm when Im going out of home the PIR sensor is activated and I cant Arm the house with the keyfob. I need to bypass the Zone and then I can Arm the house.


There is a way to Arm the house with one of the Zones not ready? I can permanent bypass the zone but this means than the sensor will not trigger the Alarm. Also I dont want to be bypassing the Zone each time I need to Arm the house.


Thank you in advance.

Yup, go to the zone settings of the PIR >> scroll down >> exit and entry zone on. (and change the entry/exit time if you want to).

Exit zone is only when you already Armed house no?


I thing I dint explain well sorry. I have tried whit exit and entry zone but not works.


My problem is when the PIR sensor is in state MOTION and then I try to Arm the house with the keyfob, the Zone is in state Not ready and dont allow me to Arm house. I need to wait out of the house 4 min till PIR return to state NO_MOTION for Arm house with my keyfob :(


Or also I can log to my phone app, bypass the PIR Sensor and then Arm the house.


P.S: How do you change entry/exit time? I can select them but not manage it.

Aah, ok


@ > Edit partion you can edit the entry exit time.


But got this idea:

- Put the arm state of the PIR on ANY (edit zone > 3th pull down)


Or remove the PIR from the alarm panel and the use the rule creator to trigger the alarm.

Thank for the idea, I have changed exit time to 260 seconds and changedthe arm state of the PIR on ANY.


Now seems to work fine :)
