I ACCIDENTIALLY SET MY ALARM OFF BUT THE ALARM COMPANY DID NOT CALL ME, WHY?
Typically this is becuase you may have turned it off before the delay went off. Most alarms have any were to a 30 second to 1 minute delay before the security company calls or police are dispatched. Many people want the delay in case they run out of the house and forget something and open the door. We don't recommend have no delay for this reason. No delay would be typically for when you set you alarm to night mode.
