Default Automatic Alarm Reset on Skylink

I'm thinking of connecting 3 vibration sensors to a Skylink AA-433
Audio Alarm. The co. tells me it will reset in 3 minutes, but I am
skeptical as the person sounded incompetent and there is nothing in
the manual that suggests this. It only says "can only be armed
disarmed with the remote."
I find it hard to believe that any alarm system doesn't have an
auto reset feature for when you're away. Is this common?
Anybody know this unit? Won't buy until I get definitive info.
Help much appreciated.
Frank

Older alarms had no automatic reset.

Newer alarms can be designed to do anything. I suggest you set it off and
see what happens. Perhaps place the noise making device in a closet under a
pillow or whatever.

The only people who can answer your question are the makers/sellers of
the alarm.

Call again and talk to someone different. Question them on the fact
that there is nothing in the documentation about an auto-reset.

OR

Choose a different alarm system that you can easily confirm has the
features you want.
