I have a python 991 I installed in my vehicle. So far I like it a lot.
The alarm is wired to switches on all the entry points. I also have a glass-break sensor I'm planning on using but its not calibrated yet, and I may add a tilt sensor.
Anyways, at this point, I don't think it's too important for me to have the shock sensor able to trigger the full alarm. I think its main purpose in my system right now is to act as a deterrent, especially if someone is bumping the vehicle to verify that it has a real alarm.
As a result, I was thinking I might bypass the full trigger functionality of the shock sensor, just keeping the warn away function.
The manual tells me how to do the reverse (bypass the warn away but not the full trigger) or bypass both, but not what I want to do.
Is this possible?
Thanks!

Isn't the shock sensor built in? If so forget it.

I believe you are right Howie. If it were separate you could simply cut the trigger wire but in this case it ain't possible...

Yes it's inbuilt, personally I'd forget tilt sensor unless they're now reliable, the glass break is useless I'd go with a carefully adjusted 508d dual-zone proximity detector, or even a single zone.

Someones that doesn't like tilt or glass sensors? Whoa!
That's 2 of us!
(The only thing I like about them is my laughter after I've triggered yet another one!)
I like the proximity detectors though. Mine is a few mW before intrusion but is boosted to 3kW after intrusion.

Never liked too many sensors, they actually trigger each other, the warn away can trip the glass breaker, that's after carefully adjusting each against the other, tilt sensors would go off every minute, whenever I get a "mystery" problem with a Clifford G5 it's the tilt sensor and no I never install them!

Wow, I'm suprised the internal shock sensor can't be configured to be "warn-only". It seems like this would be a very popular option.
By the way,
Is the tilt sensor really that unreliable? Reviews on amazon seem very positive. (I'm talking about the 507M). What if it is set to the less-sensitive 3-degree cutoff?
For that matter, the glass mic also has good reviews, with people saying they don't get any false alarms.
