it is built in in the main box. but opening it i can see the twin wire that goes from mb to speaker but figured i could route this out of the box and into another speaker

This is still a great alarm system, and one I have extended with a wired keypad.. sadly however the pad doesnt pass on the alarm arm/disarm sounds as i had hoped. (see main panel not by front door) has anyone extended the sounder from the main panel to another location using something similar...

would there be a voltage on the earth normally? so wire from FCU to a normal switch, wire to light outside. done

i was hoping i could wire in a switch to the light, or better another FCU (or do they do a double FCU?)

sorry John... what?

not sure i can do that. do you mean wire into what ever is behind that left most one? (where i guess the existing wire comes from to the alarm)

ok, so so sorry, now finally returning to this project. The alarm is fed from the left most switch on the CU, the 10Amp one. This feeds the downstairs and upstairs lighting too.Switch2 by mr rob posted 11 Feb 2018 at 12:17 AM So what do you knowledgeable people think then? safe, practical thing...

a bit off topic, but a quickie this is running a gravity fed system with hot water storage tank. when the water is heating, the rads dont get too hot and the other way round. is this a common feature of this type of system?

ahh many thanks :-)

btw: new user here... so may be dumb question with this setup can i control some hive lights? I cannot see if this hub can help?

thanks. it was needed to span a gap

Hi BG Engineer came to install the Hive v2 (hot water and heating) and to my surprise on the boiler control added a back plate type thing? what is it? is it standard as I didnt see it on the list of items. See pic (from web) its the thing on the wall that the controller plugs into. It caused...

yeah i know... just need to find the right time to test.. and its a right mess/ hard to access area. sorry (but still here)

Without killing each to identify the feed to the FCU /alarm, this is the view I have of the CU..

yes, bernardgreen, that is the use out of it now. allows easier installation etc of the alarm panel at the point of work. yes, PrenticeBoyofDerry, I was looking if I could use whats there, take a wire off the FCU to the light

yeah idea is to keep the alarm panel, running off the FCU and supply the light
