    Hi,

    Looking for some help with this one if you can. My alarm went off today an hour after I set it and left the house.When I checked the log later on it said the alarm was caused by "Entry Delay" on the front door. What does this mean and how do I sort it. Its a HKC 1070 panel and the front door is a wired inertia/MC sensor about a year old.

    Ta.

    You either have a faulty sensor/contact or someone may have banged on the door or put something heavy through your letter box.
    Could someone you know with a key have opened the door then closed it again when they heard the keypad beeping?

    Ta for the reply. Nobody has a key and nothing on the floor from the letter box. If somebody banged the door would it not just come up as a normal "alarm" on the keypad. I've never seen this entry delay thing before.

    the front door is set up as an entry exit zone. normally its a magnetic contact on that zone so when the door opens it initiates the entry procedure. but because yours is a inertia sensor, something may have banged the door, opening the circuit and started the entry procedure

    Ok yeah, that makes sense. Cheers.
