I have a Hikvision DS-7616NXI-I2/16P/4S NVR which I would like to notify me of any events (e.g. intrusions/line crossings) via an external chime. I'd want this to be particularly loud as I find the NVR's internal chime isn't sufficient.
What is the neatest/simplest way to set this up? Is there an all-in-one 12v transformer and bell which is the go-to for many alarm installers? Would it be wise/necessary to separate the NVR's alarm output from a 12v supply with a relay to protect the NVR from over-current?
Additionally, it would be handy to also have a secondary wireless chime in another location. What options could I explore for setting this up? Is a wireless doorbell the go-to here? Again, I'd prefer a neater all-in-one-box on the chime end.
