I have an Adimax watch and can't set and activate the alarm

I am happy to tell you that THERE IS ANSWER:
In normal time mode press S, hold it, then then press D to activate (or press D again to deactivate) the alarm. You will see the symbol of Bell (above the seconds) appear (when alarm is activated) and the bell symbol will disappear (when the alarm is deactivated). Now if you FIRST press and hold D and then press S it will do the same thing (activate or deactivate the alarm). So D then S, or S then D will do the same thing for activation or deactivation of the alarm. BUT, IF YOU HEAR A BEEP (chime) SOUND when you activate or deactivate the alarm, then you actually ALSO ACTIVATED THE HOURLY CHIME!
BUT if you DO NOT HEAR THE BEEP (chime) when you activate or deactivate the alarm, then the Hourly Chime is OFF!
So (in normal time mode) try it both ways: first holding D and then pressing S, or first holding S and then pressing D (one of these will activate or deactivate the alarm WITHOUT MAKING A BEEP (chime) sound - USE THAT SEQUENCE TO DEACTIVATE THE HOURLY CHIME.
I hope this is helpful!

so performing it again should turn off the alarm]

Setting the Time and Date

To set the time and date on your Aquatech watch, begin by pressing the "Mode" button three times to access the time setting screen. Use the "Lap/Reset" button to set the hour on your watch. Use the "Start/Stop" button to advance the numbers to reach the correct hour. When you've set the hour, use the "Lap/Reset" button to set the minutes, using the "Start/Stop" button to advance to the correct minute. Repeat the procedure to set the seconds, month, date and day of the week on your Aquatech watch.

Setting an Alarm

To set an alarm on your Aquatech watch, begin by pressing the "Mode" button two times to access the alarm setting screen. Use the "Lap/Reset" button to set the hours place, using the "Start/Stop" button to reach the correct hour. Repeat the same procedure to set the minutes for your alarm. When you have finished setting the alarm, activate it by simultaneously holding the "Lap/Reset" and "Start/Stop" buttons until the alarm icon appears. When the alarm sounds, silence it by pressing the "Lap/Reset" button.

Deactivating the Hourly Chime

Many Aquatech watch models feature an automatic hourly chime. This can be inappropriate and inconvenient in many situations. To deactivate the hourly chime on an Aquatech watch, simply press and hold the "Lap/Reset" and "Mode" buttons simultaneously. After you have correctly deactivated the hourly chime, the hourly chime indicator icon will disappear from the watch's main screen.

Start with watch in normal clock mode. press and hold bottom right "lap reset" - alarm time appears. Keeping "lap reset" held, I can then toggle the alarm on and off using top right "start/stop".
Qiu: Circle segment lights up (only a black point in the middle, NO ALARM)
Circle segment with a black section on the above middle point, ALARM ON.

As with many watch manufacture houses novadays watch technology differs from house to house. Tissot is no difference as T-series watches was developed by Tissot itself.
You have to follow the steps one by one as instructed in your watch manual. Probably you will need reset your watch completely, depending what actions you've allready done.
In case if you lost your watch manual, go to www.tissot.ch and find out everything you need.
