installer_dale Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 (edited) On my garden office I fitted a PSU200XP off which I have an external bell box, door contact, PIR's, fire and keypad. Also a small extension speaker so I can hear chimes from the house doors. A short run is usually ok to share cables with speaker, but not on a long run and especially not with keypads as you'll get network errors. Edited August 14, 2017 by installer_dale Quote
Cluel3ss Posted August 15, 2017 Author Posted August 15, 2017 Ahh good point, hadn't thought about if it didn't have a battery then with a broken wire it won't work. Presumably that'll be the same if someone cuts the cable ...although the main alarm siren should go off. Hmm more food for thought. Unfortunately I can't use a speaker output as the pad i'm using there is the LCDP, the LCDLP will be used in the house. Quote
al-yeti Posted August 15, 2017 Posted August 15, 2017 Circles , just whack a sounder in the spares of the Pir , it will work fine Quote
Cluel3ss Posted August 17, 2017 Author Posted August 17, 2017 Yep, ordered and will put it next to PIR. I'll update with how i get on with it. Quote
Cluel3ss Posted August 22, 2017 Author Posted August 22, 2017 So i've wired it up, but now i'm not sure how to wire it up to the alarm panel. The wiring standard i've followed is the linked sound and flash as attached. On my panel i'm using EOL for the sensors so i'm not using the tamper circuit. I think i'm supposed to connect it to the bell block, so +ve to 12v and -ve to 0v, is that correct? Also do I wire the tamper wires to Tamp, and 0V? Quote
al-yeti Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 So linked sound option Generally +12v to +12v Gnd to an output that switches from 12v to ground, bell output or another pgm 1 Quote
Cluel3ss Posted August 29, 2017 Author Posted August 29, 2017 Thanks i'll look at it properly hopefully this weekend. Quote
Cluel3ss Posted September 11, 2017 Author Posted September 11, 2017 Just a quick update... both PIR and internal sounder are working. The sounder is very loud and makes the room uncomfortable to hang around in. Thank you all especially al-yeti! Quote
