Hi
I have a question. Let say I got 8 sensors. but I am willing to remove sensor from zone # 7
If I just remove the batteries from sensor, the console will start blinking after 4 hours saying it has not report. You will not be able to arm the alarm with remotes unless you go to the console and hit BYPASS and zone etc.
If i am going to completely remove that sensor, How can I unregister it so the console wouldnt expect anything more from that zone/sensor? How can I clear/erase the console memorized sensor?
Thanks.

alexr40: The only way to completely remove a sensor is to reset the console and re-install everthing except the unwanted sensor. Unfortunately there is no way of just removing one.
To reset:
1) Unplug console from AC power.
2) Remove +9V battery
3) Wait a few seconds
4) Re-insert battery
5) Plug console back into AC power.
Re-Install:
1) Sensors
2) Remotes
3) Voice message
4) Phone numbers

You might want to just box up the sensor (if it's a window/door sensor tape it together) and put it near the console. Later at an appropriate time you can do the reinstallation. (from the file: "I meant to do that!")
