DSC PowerSeries Arming Methods & Shortcuts

[@wizz747]

Wow, THANK YOU so much! I had no idea of all these Arming methods!

Thanks for explaining the benefits of each feature and not just how to use them.

That's a somewhat unusual one.. My guess though is that your frequency clock is set wrong. In the US it should be 60hz and in other areas it's 50hz. The clock keeps time based electrical frequency. I don't know what location this is off hand, but it's in international settings.

Can you make a video of connecting the siren on pgm’ as well? will it be the same for both dsc power series and dsc neo? Thank u.

[@AlarmSystemStore]

We will add this to our list. It would be the same. It would have to be a very low current siren however because even on PGM2 you are limited to 200ma. Typically you would only put a piezo or strobe perhaps.

Can you explain how to set a function key for night arm on a PowerSeries alarm? I can't seem to figure out the right setting.

Keypad function keys are assigned under keypad programming and are explained fairly well in the keypad manuals for reference. Unfortunately, though, night arming is not an available function for the regular PowerSeries Alarm System that you mentioned. The PowerSeries NEO system does allow a night arm function key, however so if your system is a NEO you will set the function key as definition 09 in keypad programming.

Can you make a video on how to add a delay to a motion PIR sensor? ie. When the system is armed in Away Mode, when the PIR sensor trips, it gives 30 seconds to enter the access code to deactivate the alarm. EDIT: I've figured it out. We need to program the attribute as delay zone.

Sir, my DSC power series clock time gets behind 4 hours automatically every 24 hours. How to solve this problem?
