    Alarm keeps going off for no reason

    I have my alarm set as the following.

    Set Off
    If SWx6_1 CLOSED Then ON

    This is my leak detector. On my dashboard it shows SWx6_1 as OPEN but my alarm keeps coming on. I also get the following text message. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Two things.

    1. Make sure you have these two lines in your email to filter out noise (you can adjust the time but 30 seconds is good for almost everybody)

    Defer 000:30 Then ON
    Defer 000:30 Then OFF

    2. A lot of surfaces can "confuse" the leak sensor (hardwood, concrete, linoleum) and placing a paper towel under the leak sensor can remedy that.

    You add it to the email alarm outlet. This will only have an effect on alarms that are done through the email outlet and will not help any alarms made using the inputs tab.
