Pyronix Deltabell Wiring

[padstar]

I have installed the bells for the new alarm system but wont be installing the panel for a few weeks. Before i lose easy access to the bell is the below the correct method of cabling for a hard wired Pyronix Deltabell.

Cheers

I take it by the resistor ....it’s being connected to an enforcer wireless panel ?

Yes it is. I went for wired bells as they will shortly be hard to access. So I hope I will never have to get up to them again if they are wired correctly.

Does that look like its wired correctly in this case as I have a 2nd one to do out the back

As per this
You will need to watch power consumption if second wired bell box fitted. May need auxiliary power supply .

I thought you could add the resistor at the bell box. Looking at that diagram is it best just to run 1 of the cores to the 2nd "T" terminal and put the resistor at the other end in the main panel. Concerned I won't be able to get back up there when the guy comes to wire up the panel

Doesn’t make any difference .... you will still have to put on the battery link anyway ...

Sorry I don't understand. What is this?

Bottom jumper pin will need moving to left when bell is powered up to enable the internal battery

 

[padstar]

So that cant be done now?

Can the resistor be installed at any point in the line ie at the panel end or bell end? I could just run q core to each terminal in the bell then all options will be covered.

If it is difficult to gain access I’d personally disconnect the tamper switch. More hassle than it’s worth imo

How is this done and would that mean I wouldn't need to access it again and can move the battery jumper now?

Oh I get it. Do away with the tamper = no need for the resistor. Good idea. If they want to disconnect the bell before robbing me then I am in trouble.

Can the battery switch now be done while I have access

 

[Bigsosij]

Yes but it will likely drain the battery if your not powering it up for a while

Is that a problem. Will it not recharge when I connect to the main panel?

Why is more hassle ? Lazyness more like...
