Strobe

[dsiroky]

My External Siren has a separate strobe, which I've hooked up to a voltage output.

Is this the right way to configure?

What's the code I use to activate the strobe (on alarm) and leave it running until the alarm is disarmed?

Depending on how much power the strobe uses, you may need to use a power brick and a relay connected to an output to provide power to the strobe light.

The code should be easy, should be something along the lines of:

ON ANY ALARM TRIPPED
SET My Strobe Output ON

ON ANY ALARM CLEARED
SET MY Strobe Output OFF

Will give this a spin. If it doesn't work off the main board, I'll try draw the power from the optional power supply I've got installed in the can that I use to wire the smart card readers and many of the motion/smoke/CO detectors.
