BernieA Posted June 15, 2024 Share Posted June 15, 2024 I am replacing an existing old bell box with a Reson 8 bell box 8EP420. My alarm panel is a Optima G4. They are connected via a 4 core cable. The existing panel wiring is as follows: Panel Bell box Strobe+ (no connection) A link between T and A Strobe- (yellow) A (blk) SCB D (red)Bell+ B (blue) Bell- The Reson8 install guide only shows a 5 wire system: Panel Bell box Strobe- Stb- B (Bell-) Trig- A- Hold off - D (Bell+) Hold off + T- Rtn - I cant work out how I should wire the Reson8 from this. Any Alarm installers able to offer advice?
