Hi , Have a DSC 832 Security System That supports a 12vdc System Sensor Model# 2100ts Smoke Detector Alarm. It currently uses the 2 wire method of detection, black wire on PGM2, and the red wire on Aux. + . The detectors are are in series, + - input from DSC to detector + - out to the next detector. The last detector has an EOL 2.2K resistor on the + - out terminals. (note there are only two 12vdc detectors in this circuit) FYI -- The house has both the 120v smoke detection and 12vdc Smoke Detection these are separate systems.
Question ... I have a 4 wire 12vdc System Sensor smoke detector model #2412th and can put it on its own wire in the furnace room downstairs or just continue the existing loop. This detector is set up with an R64 E.O.L. Powered from input terminal 1 neg. and 2 pos. . One of its brown output wires go to Aux. contact #5 n.o. and the other to a 2.2k resistor then to Aux. contact #6 com. How do I install the 4 wire detector and connect it to the DSC 832 PC5010 system above? This detector would have to be on a 24 hour monitor in the DSC not just when armed, and I have read that it may need to be programmed to monitor the device.
Thanks in advance, Mike (Master Electrician - Lacking security system knowledge)
