Connecting Speakers
Note
Install all sirens/speakers
indoors, in a concealed loca-
tion.
The panel provides one siren driver output for intrusion (steady), fire (temporal 3), and auxiliary
(on-off-on-off) alarm sounds. This output trips only for partition 1 alarms.
The output can drive a single 8-ohm speaker or multiple speaker circuit of 8-ohms or higher (as
shown in the following speaker wiring diagrams). Compatible speakers are described under
“Connecting Piezo Sirens”.
15-Watt Speaker (13-060)
For exterior siren applications. Connect the speaker to the panel as shown in Figure 11.
Hardwire Interior Speaker (60-528)
For interior siren applications. Connect the speaker to the panel as shown in Figure 11.
Figure 11. Connecting Interior and Exterior Speakers to the Panel
Connect two units to the panel terminals with speakers in series (16-ohms), as shown in
Figure 12.
Caution
!
To avoid disabling the panel speaker output, do not make speaker connections with the
panel powered up.
Connect only the large speaker to the panel terminals 7 and 8 as shown. The smaller
speaker cannot handle to output of terminals 7 and 8. To avoid damaging the speaker, the
smaller speaker should not be connected to terminals 7 and 8.
