Hi,

I've setup some zones in night mode, I can arm to night mode (by keypad) okay but the PIR that I've set the "EntryDelayInNightMode" response against doesn't seem to initiate the entry delay beeps (i.e. to remind me to disable night mode when I walk past that PIR in the morning).  Am I missing something?  Do I need to change the PIR type to have the "Entry door" flag set too and then make the response disable the Entry mode for that PIR in Away mode?

Any thoughts/suggestions? I had this same setup working without trouble at my old house but I don't have the old config. I don't recall doing anything special.

Thanks

Entry Delay in Night Mode Response should start the entry delay if triggred in Night mode
You do not need to have Entry delay zone type assigned to it otherwise the response is not needed

Send the cclx file to support@cytech.biz for testing

Hi, I've sorted it now.

It suddenly dawned on me this morning what the issue was. My PIR was set to PIRAway. However, even though I don't want it to cause an Alarm in NightMode, I do need to set it to PIRAwayNight so that the EntryDelayInNight response actually initiates the entry delay timer.

Its good that you figured it out

If you set it to PIR Away, the PIR will not cause an alarm at all in Night mode

If you set to PIR Night Away with the Entry Delay in Night Mode Response then this starts an entry delay, so you get more security in night mode
