How do I change a zone from instant to timed. Accenta G4?
I have just fitted an Accenta G4 alarm. All works fine but I am having problems changing zone 2 (upstairs hallway) from instant to timed. Have follwed instruction in manual but still doesn't work. Can anyone help?
Manual seems straightforward. Set up programme 2 with the pir as final with a timed exit and entry. All other detectors as instant alarm but the front door also as entry/exit. This allows other authourised users to come in at silly o`clock.

Are you setting it up as a "Prog 2" suite, whereby zones take on different characteristics on the "Prog 2" setting?
If so, it is essential that the setting mode is programmed or the rest of the programme will not work.
Alarm Expert is so right about the number of mistakes in the engineers manual - very poor attention to detail by the manufacturer.

There is many mistakes in the G4 manual, and flaws in the software!!
Are you trying to make it Timed (first zone on entry)? or Time Inhibit (ingnors you on entry)?
