Front door requires bypass if open

I assume you mean device setting? It is set to main door. If it is open when I try to arm the alarm, as I leave, I’m told I have to bypass it (or I need to close the door to begin the countdown). Once the alarm finishes arming the sensor remains bypassed, even though the door is now closed. As I said I have the door open while getting ready to leave and sometimes my kids are outside. I’m not going to shut the door on my children just so I can arm the alarm. My wired alarm has no issue with this scenario.

Of course I could just wait until I’m outside and use my phone, in which case why bother with a keypad?

It is daft I cannot start the arming process with the door already open, but can with it closed and then open and close it without affecting arming.
