[How-Do-I] Add a Delay After a MS14A Triggers?

[danfly]

How can I set a short (15 second) delay between the time motion is sensed and when an alarm is activated?

What are you trying to trigger and through what RF receiving module? I don't believe that is any delay on detection just delay for transmitting an off after motion is no longer detected.

I would like to operate a fire bell or siren plugged into the TM751. When motion is detected the bell or siren goes off, but I need provision to enter the room to turn the system off without the alarm going off. Thanks.

Hey danfly,

Lets assume that your trigger ON for the Motion Sensor is A4  (motion sensed - A4 ON)
And the Module (Siren, Light) that you want activated from the Motion Sensor Trigger is A6.

Create a Macro for A4 ON - When Macro is triggered by Motion Sensor (A4 ON)
Delay 15 seconds
A6 ON
Delay xxx seconds (duration of light or siren being on)
A6 OFF

See if that might work

Thanks, I'm no rocket scientist but I guess I will need to get into the Macro. Sounds like it will work.
