Klaxon Master Blaster

[Oli_me]

Hi, I know it's a long shot and a bit vague, but does anyone know how to wire in a klaxon master blaster to a texecom premier elite 12/24? the main part that i'm struggling with is which terminals to connect the wires to the panel, and how to program it to work. Someone said that I need to wire the positive into one of the digi outs!?

 

 

Thank you in advance for your help

Why would you think its a long shot? I suspect that most on here would know how to do it

Been done before, though tricky. Below is a simplified version of the more popular interface sold by Bentley, suitable for home production;

Long shot because I was let down by the person who installed the alarm, and guess I don't feel lucky that I'll get it sorted online  fingers crossed though

Thank you for your reply. I don't follow the attached pic, not sure we're on about the same thing!?

Give it 240 and wire the relay to the bell output. Or Give Texecom a call

Both products are under Texecom now

I've got it connected to the 240, and on the master blaster side black to negative and red to positive. there is a wire already connected to the "bell" terminal and didn't was to over load it. plus why would someone say it needs to be connected to the digi outputs?

Ah, you can't beat one of those good old fashioned tube valve interfaces...

That's unfortunate, have you tried to contact another engineer?

It's not quite as simple as sticking wires in terminals...

 

Lets start with the fact a PE12 and PE24 are two different panels so wire program differently, also we don't know what model Klaxon you have there are different types.

Then even with the correct kit you will need to go into the engineers menu which any reputable installer will have his own code so you wouldn't be able to access.

Follow this with locating an output that can handle the current from the blaster, would have to check spec sheets for panel and blaster.

When in engineering menu you would need to set an output (all should sink negative on the small Texe panels) to follow the bell with a reduced trigger time so not annoy the neighbours or burn the blaster out.

What you mean handle current ? On the texes don't they have something that can switch a relay as standard ? 

[sixwheeledbeast]

Who said anything about a relay being supplied? That would be additional kit if required.

Only PE88 upwards have an onboard volt free relay which can switch upto 3A.
