Outdoor siren and flashlight

To deter burglars and alert the neighbourhood, we
UK
recommend connecting a siren and a flashlight to the
alarm centre.
Note that these alarm devices should be mounted as high
as possible (e.g. at roof height) and the cables should not
be visible. Outdoor acoustic alarms can be a disturbance
to the neighbourhood. Observe country-specific
regulations. We recommend a maximum alarm duration of
three minutes. A visual alarm (flashlight) remains active
until it is acknowledged manually.
In addition to a siren and flashlight, we recommend
connecting the tamper contact of the combination
signalling device to the tamper input of the alarm centre. If
the siren housing is opened or the connection broken, the
interrupted tamper contact triggers a tamper alarm.
Connection example:

Connecting a signalling device with its own power
supply
The functioning principle of this alarm signalling
combination is based on a permanent power supply of the
siren and a rechargeable battery integrated in the siren
housing.
At a transistor output of the alarm centre, either a bias for
the siren is applied that is removed in the event of an
alarm (or is cut in the event of tampering), or the alarm
centre issues a trigger signal on alarm via the transistor
output that activates the siren and the flashlight.
The alarm duration of the siren is set on the signalling
equipment direct. Here too, the flashlight remains active
until it is acknowledged manually. For correct installation,
please read the installation instructions of the signalling
device with own power supply.
