Problem for GE Security Simon 3 Wireless Home Security System

Motions don't stay active when doors and windows are on too.




By mike_colburn on Jul 12, 2009

Press doors and windows and motions, but motions don't stay active. After I activate both doors and windows and motions, the motions don't stay on. If I press Motions only, then they stay on. It was working fine for awhile, but now it's not.

When I press both buttons, both are lit up. But after the time period to get out of the house, the motions light goes out and they don't stay active.

The system is working as designed. If you arm both doors/windows and motions, but you DON'T exit the premises during the exit delay, the system will "downgrade" its arming to doors/windows only. The assumption is that you haven't actually left the premises and are at risk of creating fale alarms. This behavior can be disabled in System Configuration (though it may require the dealer access code to do it).

Try opening and closing a sensored external door (even if you don't go outside) during the delay after arming doors+motion and see if the motions don't stay active.
