Does the alarm automatically stop sounding after a period of time?

Yes, the alarm will stop sounding after 45 seconds. It will be activated again if it experiences further motion.

Soory, I never test it. Because it is too noise. But if nobody answer, I will test it for you.

Do you mean at the end of the time set? If so, no. Mine beeps for 30 or 60 seconds, when the set time is over.. I don't get any kind of 'reminders'.

Mine lasted about 3 minutes. Alarm sounded and wouldn't shut off. I haven't tried returning it yet.

Unfortunately, the only way to stop the audible alarm is when the timer reaches zero. There is no mute button. The alarm only sounds in the count-down mode. You can't make the alarm beep after a specified amount of time when it's in the "stopwatch" mode.

There will be a few reasons why your alarm may go off. Upon initial set up the system will test itself and check the battery, During this time you may hear the alarm. If everything checks out okay the alarm will stop and the battery will be on charging until needed. During regular operation you may hear the alarm because the system continues to do checks sporadically, about once a week. During a power outage the alarm will sound informing you that the system is on battery backup power. When the power returns the alarm will shut off. If the system finds any trouble such as the battery dying or the battery depleting itself during a power outage the alarm will go off more rapidly. If you receive a constant alarm that means that there is an issue with the battery, or you have overloaded the system with too many devices, which will not allow the unit to function on battery backup power. I hope you find this your question.

No, alarm continues until turned off or battery runs down.Regardless, don't buy them. Bad quality.

So far, the alarm has never gone off for two hours, I have always shut if off manually. I don't believe it will shut off on its own.

The alarm sounds until the dial turns back to zero. So, it does it on it's own. A matter of seconds.

No, you have to press the start/stop button to turn off the alarm. However, the alarm will turns itself off after one minute.

No. I beeps at the end of the time only. BTW, I discovered that it also can act as a stopwatch (i.e., counting up). I don't think there's any alarm in that mode, although I haven't let it go to 99+ minutes to see. (grin)

Yes, it continues to beep for 60 seconds after it goes off. As I said in my review I would not buy this again because it has such a short alarm time. If you step outside or go to the garage for something you may not realize it has gone off for several minutes. The other one I have rings for five minutes and also has a countdown screen which continues to count down so you'll know how long ago it went off. Just my thoughts.

Yes, the unit sounds an audible alarm. If connected to a system, it also causes all other detectors to sounds, the base unit to sound, and alerts the monitoring company (subscription required).

Yes it does but alarm goes off for no reason n sometimes doesn't want to shut off...I don't recommend this particular product. Try another brand..good luck

Timer has to be reset every time. Alarm does eventually stop but after a long while..not sure how long but perhaps a minute or longer. Like the timer

No. There is one short very high pitched beep at the end of the timer period. Hard to hear and only occurs once. Better to use an external timer.

Hi, It sounds like you had a power failure or lighting strike to the system. This happened to me and the alarm continued to sound-off. The only way to stop the alarm from ringing is to disconnect it from the main power source. Rotate the entire alarm counter-clockwise until it is unsecured from the base. There is a socket plug connector to the power source. Unplug. If this the only unit in the house that is sounding, it is defective and needs to be replaced.

Once the alarm is triggered it is on for the duration. The alarm has an auto shut off feature so after it goes off twice it automatically shuts off until you rearm it to prevent draining the battery.
