Re: [ECS] Security-Interface-A

I don't have any idea.  I use the same system and have sensors in the
car and wife's purse.  I have never had that particular problem.  I have
had the older sensors, before they went as spread spectrum, have
problems for a day or two here and there where the house sensors go not
responding as something is squashing the small single signal that they
report in with.  I can tell this because of watching the LEDs on the
board within the receiver.  I see the LEDs blinking much more than usual
and even some times stay on for a few seconds solid.  Something is
transmitting in the same frequency.  I had more problems when I lived in
the city but less now that I live in the country.  I just live with this
as I have the sensors set as 5 minutes loss like you do and this is much
sooner than the factory settning but it works for this application.
