Guest dunglass Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 Hope someone will be good enough to help. I am replacing an old corroded bell box with a new siren type with strobe. However, the wiring in the Alarm Panel has the following connections: Strobe +, Strobe -, Bell -, Bell +, T & A The Bell Box has the following connections: +12v, 0v, TAM 0v, NEG Trig, STR Neg If anyone can advise how I should connect the two I would be very grateful.
cdosrun Posted January 29, 2006 Posted January 29, 2006 [Hi, at a guess, I would connect as follows: Bell + - +12v Bell - - 0v Strobe - - STR Neg T - TAM 0v A - NEG Trig anyone else?

It wires this way. bell + to +12v strobe - to STR neg bell - to NEG trig T to TAM 0v A to 0v You don't need a connection from strobe + to the bell box since it has already got a +ve supply from the bell + Regards Bellman Service Engineer and all round nice bloke ) The views above are mine and NOT those of my employer.

Guest dunglass Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Weekend!!If you are going to be a proper DIY Alarm Engineer, you ought to fix it within 4 hours of either the wife or Bellman telling you how to do it Fair point that - I should have asked her first since women are always right. Bellman was of course spot on and it works great (shame about the missus). I'm not trying to over-complicate things, but.... should it be simple to wire in 2 identical bell boxes (one front, one rear) ??
bellman Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 I see I post the correction of the first post and Chris gets all the thanks??Pete Great minds think alike and all that Pete, and to be fair when I started to write my reply there was only the reply from cdosrun. You must have far nimbler fingers than me Pete Regards Bellman Service Engineer and all round nice bloke ) The views above are mine and NOT those of my employer.
