Elmdene Int600s & Gardtec 872

[DamienGiles]

Hello,

Wiring up the Int Sounder and before I "play" I'm wondering if someone could clarify?

The alarm is all setup, PIRs etc are working and we've completed a "test" period for the false alarms,

After a month of no false alarms, we think it's fault free.

I'm hooking up the internal sounder but the install guide for the sounder is vague.

It's got 5 connections (ignoring the 2 for the internal battery).

H+ & H- are 0v and 12V Cntrl Panel which are fine.

R- - 0v activates sounder

M- 0v activates buzzer

RTN - Tamper Return

These three I'm not 100% sure of. I know the RTN goes into the SAB TMP on the Panel.

I think the R- goes into the Bell Hold on the panel.

But I'm not sure where the M- goes on the panel? Is that the SPKR on the Panel?

Thanks

R- is a switched negative input, if you connect it to Bell Hold it will sound continuously.

It should be connected to the switched - bell output on the panel, I can't remember how this is labelled with Gardtec stuff but may be S- or similar.

The M terminal is a switched negative which will give a lower volume output for entry exit tones, not sure if your panel has an output which supports that.

I presume you already have an external bell connected to the panel?

If so, you can't connect the tamper return straight into the SAB tamp terminal on the panel.

R- goes to Bell -

You can't connect the M terminal as the speaker output on your panel is designed for a proper loudspeaker, not a voltage driven sounder like your Elmdene.
