Extend the maximum duration of the alarm

I would be great if the maximum duration of sounding the alarm on the base station could be extended further then the maximum of 5 minutes. I case of an emergency, you really want to sound the alarm for a longer period, so the neighbourhood is alarmed.

Related, I would also like to set the minumum alarm duration to values shorter than a minute. Like a couple seconds.

5mins off 100db is more than enough time to get your neighboors attention... Anymore would become a nuisance.

JaeMelo, it all depends on where you live. Not everybody lives in the city or suburbs (thank goodness).
