View Full Version : Reducing proximity alarm bubble?

Have had complaints at work that cars driving through our car park are setting off the prox alarm.

I've had to choose from parking the car far away and out of sight (gypsy camp up the road so no way) or disabling the prox part of the system.

I've settled on that.

Question though. How hard a job is it to reduce the size of the proximity bubble around the car? I'm asssuming I'd need some software etc.

I'm assuming you have a Clifford alarm, if its the same as mine it has a dual zone proximity alarm which bleeps when someone is near your car (zone2) and sounds the allarm if some is in the car (zone1). You can turn off these zones with your remote either just zone2 or both zones. Its fully explain on page 15 of the manual:

Hope this helps.

Oh dear, I am such a numpty. I have the manual at home and read the bit above the relevant section and the bit below it but never the bit about how to reduce it.

Cheers again.

I do this sort of thing all the time. Must be a genetic flaw.

Hmmm, checked my manual once I got home and that section ISN'T in it. All it says is the sensor settings need to be altered by a trained specialist!

I knew I is not stupid.

can be done via computer, need cliffnet software and a cable. also allows you to choose 1 of 15 different siren sound (apparently).
