I don't know where you can buy more sensors. I returned my security system because I couldn't even program it, I was very unsatisfied with this product.

Yes. The motion sensors can be paired with a door or window in a room. They won't sound the alarm unless both the door or window and the motion sensor is triggered. Pets & people can move through the motion sensor's view without triggering the alarm until the door or window is opened. Then both are triggered and alarm sounds.

Sorry. Don't buy it. It consumed batteries (costly) and after a while the sensor is not functional anymore as expected. Better buy one with foot mechanism. It will last longer. Hope that helps.

I can see your point about turning it off. I have a cheaper unit that I keep in my shop. Thinking about upgrading. I just turn the sensor toward the wall when I'm working out there so the alarm will not be sounding constantly all day when I'm out cleaning or working. Kind of like telling the guard "don't shoot! It's me! Just take the afternoon off"! I just have to turn it back around when I lock up. Form a habit like pulling your keys out of the door after you lock the lock. It's just habit.

thieves can easily break windows without sending a large enough shock wave to set off the alarm. (usually they use porcelain pieces 1/4th inch spark plug fragments) To protect your self from that, grab a 508D proximity sensor. It will warn if they get too close (and notify you) and if they reach in the alarm goes off. Look it up. Its about 25.00 .

Can you explain your process a little more detailed? I'm not sure I follow you on the means of a door sensor.

They give you many rooms to choose from (e.g., Office, Master bed room, kitchen, living room, etc.). I've had mine for many years, so they may have added extra options since I purchased these. You might want to call First Alert if there is something specific you need. I LOVE them and recommend them to everyone. If an alarm goes off, it's good to know where the fire or carbon monoxide is and not have to guess (like with typical alarms that just make noise, but don't talk).

Yeah, it's built to do that. There is a 'home' and an 'away' mode. You just assign which triggers you want to be active for each one. For mine I have doors and windows only when we're at home and when we are out the away setting will trigger the alarm with doors windows and the motion detectors.

I needed a more adjustable alarm. It sits unused on a shelf. I have an in line monitor that was five times the price that interfaces with a computer and adjusts o2 levels

When the magnetic connection between the two parts of this sensor is broken, your alarm system will register an open condition. I guess if the window or door is struck in such a way that would cause the sensor parts to move enough to break the magnetic contact it might trigger the alarm. However, I think they were only meant to register open or closed.

I lined it up, opened the door. When the alarm went off, I took the backing off and stuck it permanently. It works perfectly. Someone opened my door one night and I heard the alarm from upstairs. The intruder left promptly. Also, it alerts when children leave or enter the house, or leave the door open.

It's run off of a frequency. For example, our garage door won't open or close whenever we have it on. I don't see why you couldn't buy an extra door alarm and have it attach to the same monitor in your room, but I don't know that they sell it like that. Good luck.

Yes the alarm has 2 setting Home where only doors and windows are activated but motion sensors are inactive and you also have arm away where now beside doors and windows but also motion sensors are activated.

Yes, Have added several to my system and they work well with long battery life and good range. Very good peremeter security alarm system.

Yes, very easy installation same as your door/window sensors. Follow instructions with your system manual if unsure. Then call your security monitoring company to confirm addition.

I think it handles a combination of up to 16 device on four channels so you can do any reasonable combination you want for up to 4 areas. However, if you want alert mode for some areas and alarms mode for other you will need two base units but if the buy a combo pack it is not much more then a sensor alone so the cost increase is minimal. You can buy the sensors separately as well so you can have a pretty flexible system for not a lot if money.
