G4 internal sounder

[Peter’s]

Hi
I have an internal sounder that goes of when the alarm is activated along with the external bell, can I add a second internal sounder ? If so can I just add it to the wires in the Pannal ?

regards

Peter

Yes it’s a speaker probably if your talking about the panel speaker not a sounder….

Hi
I am wanting to fit an additional one of these.

 

[Peter’s]

This is how the panel is wired

That is a soundbomb2 and would connect to the bell trigger output. Not the speaker.
Only thing to be cautious with is the total current consumption when alarm has multiple devices connected to bell output.

Hi thanks for the reply, if I was to get the two siren version for the additional one instead of the four would that be better?

 

[Peter’s]

What damage could it cause please

 

[Handymanjo]

Should be OK as long as you do not pull more than 1amp.
Worst case will blow bell fuse .
What have you got connected to bell output. Add up current consumption of each device connected to bell .

 

[Peter’s]

Thanks I will check I only have the bell box sounder and the additional one

Hi
I have checked the ma consumption and below 1 amp so good, do I connect the additional siren to the bell terminals at the bottom of the board or the sound on the left hand side of the board please?


regards
Peter

Bell terminals at bottom.
Why do you have a link in tamper/ov ?

 

[Peter’s]

I don’t know, the alarm was fit. an electrician . What would this do ?

 

[Handymanjo]

Bell box may not be wired correctly or problem with tamper switch on bell box

 

[Peter’s]

Ok thank you for your help, is the black and red in the bell terminals going to the original internal sound bomb, and do I just connect the r& b on the additional bomb to these so they both activate on trigger?

Red to bell +
Black to bell -
