the book says to enter install menu. Hit 1 for install. Enter zone and press clear.
But the zone won't clear.
Since I have dogs now I want to clear out the one motion I have, but it won't clear.
Any ideas.

A suggestion.
Now that you have FINALLY got your panel working with HomeGenie and have this problem maybe it could be a good time to reset your panel and re enrol your sensors and remotes with your panel. HomeGenie will be able to automatically pick up the RF codes from these during the process and assign each sensor it's technology name in HomeGenie.

After selecting the Clear option. Did the display turn to the Clear Zone choice of 1 Yes or 2 No?
-
Yes. And when pressing one it stated.
Zone 2 Out
Zone 2 is not out however. B:( B:(
-
Not sure it if it makes a difference.
Did you back all the way out to the main display after the change and then see if it still has that zone in use?
-
Yup.
Did it a couple different ways. Backing out, not backing out, clearing multiple times, etc.
Just won't clear for some reason.
I hate to redo all my zones, but it is looking like that is the only way to fix this.
Ugh......X10. lol

Nothing to do with X10. Usually to do with the user. Resetting gives you all the extra goodies that people like me have spent the time figuring out. No go and do a bit of work :'

Agreed. I just can't figure out what it was and it was driving me nuts. My hesitance was only due to I didn't want to lose my sensors rf codes. I thought when I reset the system would generate new ones. I was wrong.
Everything works great now. I can have a (mostly) decent alarm system working again!
Thanks,

The new RF codes are generated by the individual sensors themselves. When you use their setting an RF code sequence built in to them.
Glad it is working for you again.

Did anyone from this topic come up with an answer for LostDog88 and clearing the sensor?
