Suggestions wanted for Motion Detector delay/time-out



Hello & thanks in advance for your suggestions...


Briefly, I've got a CCTV on my front door.  I also have a motion
detector that 'dings' when someone is in my yard & approaching my front
door.  http://www.smarthome.com/7135as.html

The problem is that there's no chime delay (?) setting w/ the motion
detector -- meaning, the receivers 'ding' everytime the motion detector
is triggered.  You can imagine how annoying this can be when someone
stands on my walkway, mows the lawn, etc.  It goes off and off and
off...

I'd like to find a way to turn off the receivers for a period of time
(i.e. 1-3 minutes) before they'll chime again.  Does anyone know of a
product that I can use to solve my problem?  The receivers simply plug
into an outlet.  Other visitor announcement systems have too short of a
range to work, so I'm stuck w/ my existing system.



Thanks again...I'm grateful.
