David,
I love that you "get it", and have such a great sense of humor!
I just thought, you know, you and Alon are both young, virile So-Cal L.A. guys, you're in Newport Beach, he's in 90210, you both have Mercedes'.
You know, come to think of it, it really isn't such a great idea to have you two in cahoots. I don't want to be even remotely responsible for any drag racing on The Sunset Strip!!!
But I really think you need to read this thread:

to fully understand my reference to JCE... He Da MAN!
On the original question, I think you need to find out who the manufacturer of the alarm system is, and get their input. Remember that what we may view as a glitch, the seller may have offered as a "feature".
