Re: Ademco 998PI - detects motion but no alarm

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes...you'll need to program that motion detector into the system on
whatever zone you wired it to in the panel. Yes...installer manual and
installer code and keypad that can get into zone programming (the cheap
keypads can only program part of the system, not the zones)... 6139 or 6150
(i think).

| Are you letting the system fully arm?  Yes - waiting for like 20-30

| Thanks for taking time to ask about the problem.
