Motion Detector Behavior while Exit/Entry Delay is in Progress

Hi, I have a question on Motion Detector and alarm system behavior while Exit/Entry delay is in progress.1. As I understand, a motion detector alert is ignored by the system after it is armed AND exit delay is in progress - the assumption being that the people exiting may be causing the alert. After the motion detector's dwell time AND the exit delay completes (whichever is longer - since the exit delay may be 60 seconds and the Gen 1 motion detector dwell time is 180 seconds), the next motion detector alert is recognized by the system. This is the case regardless of whether the motion detector's placement is Entryway or Room. Is this correct?2. Using the above example, if the exit delay is 60s and a Gen 1 motion detector is triggered on the way out, given its dwell time of 180 seconds, there are 120 seconds without the motion detector protecting - since its dwell time has to complete before it can send the next alert. Is this correct? 3. If an Entry delay is triggered, by a contact sensor - by opening a door to enter a home, and while going towards the keypad to disarm the system, a motion detector is triggered, then will the alarm sound if the motion detector's placement is Room or, because an Entry delay is already in progress, the system ignores the motion detector because an Entry delay is in progress - similar to the exit delay? OR because the motion detector's placement is Room, the alarm sounds right away, even though an entry delay is in progress, activated by a contact sensor?4. If the system is armed and a motion detector with Entryway placement is triggered, will the system initiate an Entry delay before sounding an alarm EVEN though all the doors have contact sensors and none of the contact sensors have been activated?Thanks.
