these outputs, supervised sirens may be connected with a total consumption of 300 mA.
The installation and connection procedures are as follows:
1. Install the cable connecting any polarized siren (or with a corresponding diode) as
required (without exceeding 300 mA).
2. Place a 4K7 / ¼ W end-of-line resistance in last siren.
3. Connect the circuit to the control unit through the terminals on the main board
identified as SND1+ and SND1-.
