Anyone mastered the locking of the Cobra alarm from inside with the internal sensors disabled?

Can't get ours to lock without alarming despite seeing the single flash from the dash led.

We have a switch that we use to disable the internal sensor and then we just activate the alarm via the central locking fob.

We know it works having forgotten to switch it off before enabling the the alarm as it makes a hell of a din when you move!

Thanks, this system has a press button on the dash which should do the same, just can't get it to have the doors locked with us inside.

Instruction sheet say Vodaphone 46xx
Looks the same as the Cobra alarms.

On my Cobra if I press the alarm fob to arm and then press the same button again it disables the interior ultrasonic sensor.

If it's like ours (a Corbra with the tiny button thing on the dash), you have to press the button until the little indicator gives a long flash (usually only a second or two), but you must do this within 5 secs of turning the ign OFF.
You then lock with the remote fob button.

The 5 seconds thing foxed us at first.

Thanks Jake - that is how ours is set up - possibly just finger trouble as it was ok the last time we tried it.
If the alarm has been triggered it appears to need a lock and then unlock to get it back into a normal state.
