An alarm can never be too loud, but more effective prevention comes from good sensors guarding the outer most perimeter (doors and windows/skylights) with Break glass and shock detection on their own alarm zones. I'd include a GSM digital auto-communicator, so you and/or the police can be notified of any potential perimeter intrusions, especially in remote locations. PS. 360 degree ceiling mounted Microwave and Doppler based detectors prove allot more accurate and less prone to false alarms in typically hotter environments than traditional PIR sensors.

The motion sensor is one of those 360 ones glass brake sensors and shock detectors kinda are something that I don’t trust for false alarms I do get notified if the system goes off but it does not call anyone else as that would also be issues with false alarms

I wanted to let you know that many Fire Alarm Systems such as the Fire lite that you have installed. You would use a RED color Strobe and this would be a General Alarm to First Due Units. A General Alarm is considered Heat Detectors, Pull Stations, Smoke Detectors. Also there is a green color strobe that is used on systems that is a Waterflow alarm if you have a sprinkler or standpipe system. A Blue Strobe would only be for Security System to let the Police Offers know which structure is having the alarm. John

Loving the security system! I have a question for you. Is it okay to mount vibrating horns and bells on the same wall area or demo board as a fire alarm control panel? I've seen other people do that and I am doing that as well. Will the vibration from mechanical horns or bells damage the panel or any other electronic devices on the system? Because I've heard that vibration is bad for electronics and fire alarm control panels. Thanks for your help!

Hi! My house has a dsc system what can power 3 sirens perfectly fine on 1 bell circuit. it’s not a neo it’s some power series.

I had to get a relay because the security panel does not put enough power out to power both sirens so I have to power the separate siren off its own power supply and the relay is just triggering it to come on otherwise it would always be on

how does the fire alarm tie into the security system? do the trouble and alarm circuits wire into a zone or are there dedicated inputs?

@nics-systems-electric

My systems aren’t connected together. The only purpose of that would be if the security system is monitoring the fire alarm system to report to the alarm company in that case, you would have zones from the security system, going into relays on the fire alarm panel for alarm supervisory trouble sometimes only alarm.
