1. Using the RED wire, connect the
positive (+) terminal of the Local Alarm
to P9-pin3 (Alarm Out) of the
Controller.
The Central Alarm (Figure 13.4) is located in its
own enclosure and contains its own Power
Supply, a Tone board, a Relay board and three
terminal strips.
2. Using the BLACK wire, connect the
negative (-) terminal of the Local Alarm
to P9-pin6 (Ground) of the Controller.
NOTE: If you are using composite
cable, the WHITE 22-gauge wire from
the composite, will connect to the RED
22-gauge wire from the Local Alarm
inside the junction box. The BLACK
wire from the Local Alarm can tie to the
common ground BLACK 22-gauge wire
from the composite.
One of the terminal strips is used for the factory
installed AC power cord. Another terminal strip
is used for connecting speakers to the central
alarm. A third terminal strip connects to the
various alarm tones offered by the tone board.
