Hi Guys,

I recently installed Ademco vista 20p in my house. I got everything working except for the motion detector. The motion detector works fine if I change its zone type to 03 (perimeter). But if I set it to 04(interior follower) it doesn't sound the alarm. I know its hooked up properly and the LEDs blink when I move around. But for some reason, it doesn't sound the alarm when its zone type is set to 04.

Any idea what could be wrong?

Thanks for your time,
Sundeep
