Toplok ADT bell box

Can any one help me with identifying a few of these terminals on this old ADT box.

PID and anti drill.

Also does the tube markings mean i can have an extra xenon tube for an inside flash if someone were to get inside the box?

It's an old ADT box, pre merger between Thorn and Modern when they went with the Elmdene Rapier for their HS applications. Batt shows 1993 so well before the 1997 (ish) merger.

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

Am i correct in saying that this is a toplok bell box or did toplok only make the circuitry?

Dont suppose you know what the PID terminals do?

The pid connections are for connection to a pid(point interface device) bit like a galaxy rio ,used on very old ADT focus panels which were way ahead of their time back in the day

My folks garage still has one of the original Adt Focus bell boxes up. Still happily ringing away 24 years later
