Problem for GE Security Simon 3 Wireless Home Security System

Goes off even when disarmed!

The motion sensors trip even when the Simon 3 is disarmed. Now its beeping 3 times every so often.

Same Problem

Dec 29, 2008

-   I have added a motion sensor to my Simon 3 and the chime voice is definitely off.

However even after disarming the system using my access code, if I pass in front of the motion detector it trips the alarm, even though the status tells me the system is disarmed.

The only way to keep the motion detector from tripping the alarm is to delete it, which is what I have done until I can hopefully get a solution.

Any suggestions from anyone as to what I might be doing wrong when adding the sensor. I follow the instructions in the manual.

Thanks.

This is from page 19 of the Simon3 manual found here:
http://www.safemart.com/manuals/simon3.pdf

It appears you have the "CHIME on Motion" enabled. Follow the Option 41 steps to disable it.

Option 41 - Voice Chime
The panel will verbally announce which chime sensor has been tripped if the chime
feature is on.
Add enables chime voice.
1. Open panel cover. Panel announces, Use numbered keys to enter ID.
2. Enter Access Code using the numbered keys. Panel announces, Please select from
Start Menu.
3. Press Add from the Start menu. Panel announces, Select from main menu
4. Press Option #. Panel announces, Option 1, press again for next option or done to
select.
5. Press 41. Panel announces, Option 41, press again for next option or done to
select
6. Press DONE. Panel announces, Option 41 is on.
Delete disables chime voice. The panel will not announce which chime sensor has
been tripped but will still chime 2 times for doors and 3 times for motion sensors when
a given sensor is tripped.
1. Open panel cover. Panel announces, Use numbered keys to enter ID.
2. Enter Access Code using the numbered keys. Panel announces, Please select from
Start Menu.
3. Press Delete from the Start menu. Panel announces, Select from main menu
4. Press Option #. Panel announces, Option 1, press again for next option or done to
select.
5. Press 41. Panel announces, Option 41, press again for next option or done to
delete
6. Press DONE. Panel announces, Option 41 deleted.
