I am having trouble with my Honeywell Motion detectors (5890PI Wireless PIR Motion Detector). During test mode (on panel, not detector), these motion detectors only work speratically, but most of the time they are not detecting movement at all. I have Pulse Count set to off, because I don't have any pets in the house and want the motion detector to trigger as soon as it detects any motion and not after a couple of pulses. Anyone else had this problem, and if so, how did you resolve it?

There is a time delay between transmitting a wireless signal to control to save on battery life
