I completely replaced my ADT Pulse System with a Ring Alarm (retrofit kit as well). You CANNOT program the alarm to auto arm/disarm. This is particularly frustrating with a family. I cannot rely on my teenage son to set the alarm when he gets home at night.... Nor can I rely on my 5 year old to turn the alarm off at 7am when he lets the dogs out. It's already gone off 3 mornings.... of course waking everyone up. A simply "Arm Home" at 11:30pm and "Disarm" at 6am is all I need. As I told customer service...... I was able to set my VCR to start and stop at a certain time... IN 1982! Needless to say, I will NOT be getting professional monitoring and I'm reconsidering a different system all together. If the "engineers" can't figure out 4 lines of code, this might help them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QWahoNWA1s https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_recorder_scheduling_code Will be looking for a refund, FP
