I’ve discovered that my home has what appears to be an audible siren on the upstairs level that is hardwired. It is Honeywell Wave 2. I don’t know how to learn this into the 2gig panel since there is no automatic learn or button to push. I assume that alarm sounds are triggered by a question setting in programming but I don’t know where.
I think this diagram is telling me to hardwire to the 2gig panel…no can do that with finished walls.
After some thinking and studying the closet where my power supply box is, inside the lock box is what appears to be the original honeywell circuit board that I could use for power, however, I am not sure if that would be sufficient without any physical connection to the 2gig panel unless it can be wired to the switch?
It would have to be physically wired to the 2GIG panel. If you used the old panel’s 4-conductor keypad wire to power the 2GIG panel, a trick I’ve seen used is to use 2 of those conductors (red and black) to power the 2GIG panel and the other 2 (yellow and green) to connect (in the old metal box) to the wires that go to the siren. Otherwise you might consider moving the wired siren to a location that you can physically wire to control panel. Or you might want to use a wireless siren instead.
