Auto Theft Prevention/Adjusting sensitivity of Chapman Dealer Installed

Question
Hi,

I have a 2008 Toyota Corolla. It has a Chapman Alarm installed by the dealer. How do I adjust the sensitivity of the alarm. I want the alarm to sound(and kill the engine) if the door is opened. Right now, I can open the door, and it only sounds when I close the door.

Answer
Look under the dash for a shock sensor.
It would have a blinking red and green light possibly.
There is also an inset wheel to turn counter clock
wise to turn down, clock wise to turn up.

That's what I have on it.

PS. The door trigger wires should be attached on this alarm.
I would have a tech finish the job if it were me.
