I don't want silent arming because that eliminates all chirps including the warn away function chirp.

I did not know it eliminates the warn-away chirps. Does the one-time Silent Arm also eliminate the warn-away?

Reading the manual it appears that when you silently arm by pressing Aux button and then Lock button, it temporarily disables the warn away chirps too. If you permanently disable confirmation chirps in the programming (which is what I did for now), you still get the warn away chirp function as normal.

If anyone has additional thoughts on a piezo or maybe adding a resistor to the arm/disarm wire on the siren that would be great. thanks!

Any ideas or thoughts about adding a resistor to the DEI siren chirp wire to quiet down the chirp? i have no problem cutting the wire but don't know what size resistor I might try.

thanks.

I'm not an audio expert but I think putting voltage to a speaker (even with a resistor) will not produce any thing resembling a chirp.

Ok this is what I'm thinking. The DEI siren has a wire on the outside you can cut which will make the confirmation chirps from that siren louder. If you don't cut that wire, the siren gives off slightly quieter chirps.

I was thinking of cutting that wire and inserting a resistor and solder it back together. The theory being more resistance to current flow or voltage will result in an even quieter arm/disarm chirp which is what I want.

Any idea if this theory will work and if so, what resistor values because I have no idea?

thanks!
