kensplace Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 I want to swap to a galaxy 500, I have had the bellbox working with a galaxy 16+ before, but not wired up the 500 yet. Wirewise I have the following 5 wires going to the bellbox, unfortunatley some scrote nicked our ladders from the back yard so I can't get up to the bell box to check any connections, or even remove battery from it etc.... 1 - Strobe - 2 - SCB T 3 - SCB A 4 - BELL B- 5 - BELL D+ Im assuming from some old scribbled notes of the old panel that was there ages ago Wire 1 Strobe Minus is the strobe trigger Wire 2 SCB T is -Ve Tamper Return Wire 3 SCB A is 0V Wire 4 Bell B MINUS is the Bell Trigger Wire 5 Bell D PLUS is +12V Supply for bellbox Question is, how does this wire up to the galaxy 500? The Bell output obviously to the no 4 wire (Bell trigger), another output for the strobe (if I use it) +12v and 0v do they just wire up to any 12v supply in the panel? What about the tamper return? Where on the galaxy does that connect? I notice there is a pair of tamper return connections on the board, but there is only one wire for tamper coming from the bellbox.. Does it go into a input, or wire into that pair somehow? My head is just not working at the moment, cant think at all! Also, could the bell box be ran from a rio, if so again how would the tamper be connected - and is it fine to do that (may not need to, just exploring options)
james.wilson Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 yes you can use a rio but you need to wire the tamper return into a zone. You can use a relay for this or wire as the manual says for -ve zones. On the panel where you have the loop, one side is ho- the other is the tamper input. securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
hpotter Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Out of interest what's the max current a rio can supply. I take it that if you can run a bell (& strobe) off a rio they can deliver a fair amount, & what if it's at the end of the chain of rio's, or if 100m from panel etc? Just getting my head around it all, not knocking etc.
