I have a maxtrix 50.5x and both the shock and 508D pause before they are triggered again.

Maybe this is normal but when I trigger the warn away for my shock sensor and the alarm beeps there is a pause before I get another trigger warning even if I keep taping the vehicle.

This is the same for my 508D, If I arm the alarm and wait a few seconds and walk over to the car I get a warn away triggger siren sound, but only one even though I am still moving arround the same area. After about 9 seconds it will trigger again with a warning sound.

Why woudn't the trigger warning sound keep going off if I am within the warning proximity zone without the pause?

Same with my shock sensor.

I might be answering my own question here but based on the diagrams of how to hook up the 508D I found on the site, the place I bought it from said to hook it through the shock sensor, and they told me the wrong wires to hook up it seems.

I am assuming that is why I am only getting one motion pulse trigger (and on channel 1) because the shock sensor gives one trigger per shock pulse hit and because they are linked together the 508D is doing the same thing.

Am I right for thinking this?

Yes, also look at page 32 on instal guide, note that outer zone triggers for 12 sec. at a time.

The warn away is designed to let people know you have an alarm, without annoying the people near the vehicle.  Why would you want the warn away to coninue going off?  Once the warn away cycles once it has done its job and there would be no point in immediately repeating the warn away chirps.

The important thing here is that if you trigger the warn away and then hit the car hard the alarm should immediately go in to full alarm mode.  If you see the same delay before it goes in to full alarm I would be much more worried.

I don't want it to go off constantly but it will only chirp once and I can walk arround my  vehicle almost 2 times before it goes chips again.

I also have missed the page on the remote because it only sends one signal that makes my remote make only one trigger sound. Ususally when I am in a loud area.

Is there a way to get the remote to to page multiple times based on a trigger like it does on the full alarm?

Why would you want the alarm to page you on the warn away?

If you are that worried about it switch the warn away trigger to the full alarm trigger.

The point of the warn away is to encourage people to not mess with your car.  If the warn away is triggered there is a 99.99999% chance there is no damage to your car.  If the system is set up properly you should only be worried about an impact or violation that sets off the full alarm.

You have to allow the sensor time to "settle down" after you arm the system.  Arm it, wait 30 seconds and then walk up to the car, i will warn away.  And if you keep walking around close in the radar sensors field, it will "see" that and consider that some of the "enviroment".  So, step back a few feet, wait 5 seconds and walk back up to it again.  That would be a better way of testing it.   I've seen people test tem by walking up to the car and start waving their hands up and down continously, and think it's going to keep going off.  Thats now how thw radar sensor "sees" things.

The Impact sensor is kinda the same.  Strike the vehicle,  then wait 3-4 seconds and bump it again.    The system should page you ONCE each time the warn away is triggered.

The reason I want the warning to go off more frequently is that my car is shown at car shows and people especially kids love to get close and touch.

I would just like to have the warn away sense more frequenly because there are lots of people arround and it would help keep those pesky people from putting there finger prints all over the vehicle and messing up the time it took to make the car look really good.

Is this is possible?

I would doubt that it would be possible to make it do what you want it to do, as that delay is in the programming of the unit and is there for a purpose.

You may be able to adjust the sensitivity of the prox sensor so that it will set the alarm off if you get too close to the vehicle.  That way, if someone is approaching the vehicle they will get the warn away, if they continue to get closer it will just set the alarm off.

Of  course at car shows I can't imagine you'll make any friends that way!
