Can dog barking setting-off glass breakage sensors
I have heard that it may be possible for an indoor barking dog to set-off glass breakage sensors.
Is there any way to set the system so that we can turn-off either an individual or all glass breakage sensors without affecting other sensors (door/window, motion, camera, etc.), and then be able to turn the glass breakage sensor(s) back on when we choose to do so?
THANKS for your help!

With the 24.99 interactive plan you can selectively shut off the glass break sensors, but based on my personal experience and those I know, wouldn't bother. Others? What's your experience?

However, I have a problem with the way SS does business. They release products and don't announce them. Poor or no equipment manuals. Terrible forum format. No CRC center and antiquated phone system. They do put out a decent product and are basically honest if not somewhat inept - I had to call twice to get my refund credited on my return -BUT they gave me a months free monitoring, without me asking, for my troubles. SS2 works flawlessly for me so I'm not inclined to change. When or if the time comes that I need to change, hopefully the new systems that are out now (Ring, Abode) will have matured and I will make my decision then.

I only set off the glass break sensor once. I dropped my electronic cigarette - the back came off and it dropped hard on my desk and made a very loud and sharp "metallicky" ping. All of a sudden the alarm went off and I thought someone broke in and ran to get my piece, monitoring called right away and I'm on high alert but all was in order -- and then I saw it was the glass break....lol

Our Golden does this-if he barks loudly right up against the glass (like barking at a squirrel) it sets off the sensor. We have two sensors downstairs and this happens to both. Best guess is that he is vibrating the glass and creating a pressure wave detected by the sensor.
