All:
I need some guidance with regard to the siren on output 2 of my M1G. Currently I have a speaker attached to output 1 which works as expected. Becuase the house is rather large and the speaker is downstairs, I added an interior siren on the second floor and connected it to output 2.
The siren is a DSC 15w - model SD15W but when connecting it to the system via output 2 I now have a trouble message for output 2 coming through. The M1G is set to voltage on G26 but I still get the error. Additionally when the alarm is tripped the siren does not sound.
From some research it sounds like I might need a resistor on output 2 if the siren iteself does not give enough resistance. However, to my thinking if this was the only problem, the siren would still sound when the alarm is tripped. The DSC siren does have a yelp and steady wiring for which I have no preference. I am currently wired for yelp via the red wire on the siren.
Is DSC not compatable with the M1G? Its just a siren I wouldn't think it would make a difference....
