yes...

yes...

except for the tamper

Looks OK, but take that link out from Ov and the Tamp return when you fit the new box.

thanks for the replies. looks like i have a faulty bell box then. i have connected it up and the siren just sounds continuously and the strobe does not flash, plus entering the code on the panel does not silence it. i will double check the wiring to make sure.

it might be that the tamper switch is not making. double check that first
