its not a speaker. If you want spk tones then get a speaker

Wire the original speaker back in place and forget the sound bomb they are rubbish anyway...

@al-yeti - not sure mate.  How can I check?

 

@james.wilson - Your right, but because the alarm panel is wired in the basement, we don't have loud enough sound from keypad to alert us if an intruder managed to break-in.

 

@sixwheeledbeast - The original speaker is still on there too.  Can't I keep both?  They seem to be working fine and the sound-bomb is more than loud enough to wake the whole house up.

the keypad is just that low volume feedback etc

Whenever I connected the black wire to the bell, it continued to beep.

texecom bells have leaky triggers....

 

I must say you have got half pro gear and have no idea how to use it. time to get someone in that does?

@james.wilson What do you suggest mate?

 

@MrHappy Leaky triggers?  What's that and how do I resolve it?

Diode or bleed resistor?

I've got to agree with you and hold my hands up.  Before I bought this alarm system, I thought I'd figure it out pretty quickly, but now I realise that I have bitten off more than I can chew.  I am almost there and majority of alarm system seems to be working fine, but some of the technical stuff I certainly do struggle with.

I'd normally just use separate OP's
