McP Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Hi The way my company does it is to fit a relay in the RIO usually a small AB relay. You put a permant 12v positve on to the relay and wire your negative return from the SAB into the negative terminal of relay. That way relay is always energized and if SAB is opened the relay will change state. Then wire resitors in to N/C connections with wires going to zone. Hope this helps.

Scott Thats the way i would do it. BUT. If its not a smart rio you will find the output wont give enough current to trigger a bell. If its a normal RIO set the bell in SCB mode and it will work fine.
