Need to get a few of these for my office. Also, I only have a 4 conductor cable availible; do I have to wire the glass and motion together and use the other 2 conductors for power or can I wire it like:

Blk - Common/Neg Power

Red - Positive Power

Grn - Glassbreak

Yellow - Motion

It is an Elk M1 panel.
 
That will work and DSC make a dual unit that works well, its a Bravo but I can't remember what number.

In your case, the easiest way, in addition to the method listed, is to jump the EOLR from the other side of the relay to the negative.

Never was a fan of the DSC units personally.
 
I used to recommend the DSC BV500GB which is probably the one gizzmo referred to. I have been kinda irked by one that has falsed on me twice already (once on motion zone and just today on glass). And thanks to NextAlarm not following directions police were dispatched both times resulting in a false on record. You could probably tie the 2 commons and neg power together on Elk and get by with the 4 wires but I used 22/6 anyway and have all my power on a secondary Altronix supply.
