Have you seen the manuals that come with a Lexus? They're like 200 pages! Why would I read a 200 page manual for a vehicle we're only going to have for 24 hours? :laugh:

I don't understand why this would ruin your night. I've had similar things happen and appreciated that the system worked. I would have gone to sleep like normal.

You don't have to read the whole manual. However, instead of just pushing buttons, you could grab the manual, review the index, look up that specific button, and read about it.
User manuals aren't meant for cover-to-cover reading

Last summer I was walking through the neighborhood and stopped and talked to some people. Husband was outside, wife was in cooking. She was making something that set off the fire alarm. About 30 seconds later the phone rings - it was ADT asking if they needed the fire department.
Husband says "no, my wife just burnt something on the stove it's fine".
About 5 minutes go by and we hear sirens. They got closer. Then closer. Sure enough the full fire squad shows up at the door asking where the fire was.
The homeowners were not happy with ADT that night
It's both cool and scary how "connected" we are now to response crews.
