drvnbysound: I though of that but I was going to inquire if anyone had written a rule that would shut off the siren momentarily to hear the message, then resume. I will have SP12F's at the keypads.

I actually want to mount them in the ceiling, each behind a metal grill. One siren on each level of the home. Trying to produce the maximum amount of noise to upset any intruder.

Great answer RAL, thanks. Should I wire the 3) sirens in series or parallel? Do you think the ELK SS30's will be louder (better) than piezo sirens?

Could someone advise me on the best and proper way to install three Elk SS30 Sirens (30W, 1.1A) on an existing M1. There is currently three SP12F 12 watt speakers connected to OUT 1 that need to remain connected. Thanks

DEL, Thanks for the reply I'm unclear what a bootstrap program is, but this system had not been worked on or manipulated in at least 6 mos. prior to this happening.

I have a two year old M1G system. Recently, the firmware on the M1XRF2H receiver will be mysteriously erased about every 24 Hrs. This renders the receiver useless but no trouble codes are issued by the system. The controller, receiver, and RP software all have the latest updates. Has anyone...

Greetings, Is it possible to configure my M1G to announce the zone location of the intrusion (twice), before setting off the loud siren? I have connected two SP12F speakers to output 1 and installed behind both keypads. Currently, a siren noise is heard from both SP12F speakers when a zone is...
