Constantly Monitored Door
I am trying to set up one door in my house that is constantly monitored - a door in the basement that is rarely used. I would like for it to be an instant trigger that there is a problem, regardless of whether system is off, or armed in home or away. Is this possible (without having to get a second base station)?

@bobhayesphd If I understand your post correctly, the answer is no and using a 2nd base and entry sensor, while it should work, is indeed an expensive way to get it done. I (and many others) have requested this feature from SS for many years. I have three basement windows with entry sensors that have not been opened in 30+ years I want to protect all of the time. Unfottunately, at this point you can only get secret alerts in "off mode". I would think it wouldn't be too much trouble to modify the software to allow arming one or serveral sensors to "armed" in off mode to accomplish this.
Simplisafe, how about a little pixie dust and make a holiday miracle happen? :-)

Hi @bobhayesphd,
Absolutely! You can do this in the app by going to My System > Device Settings. Then, click on the sensor you are referring to. Here you will see a switch to turn Instant Trigger on for only that sensor.
