Hi, I just purchased a Deltabell X for use with my alarm panel pro but I’m having issues getting it working. I’ve seen the other posts on the deltabell but I’ve had no luck.
I wired the 12v+ to 12+, 12v- to Aux- and strobe/bell to Alarm -. When 12v is conncted the alarm has a blinking led to show it’s live. When i try to activate the siren from the Konnected panel in home aasistant nothing happens but every few activations when the button is switched off i get a brief strobe and siren.
Im also having issues with the panel losi g connection after a few goes and a vlue flashing led coming on. Disconnecting the bell and restarting the alarm panel pro resolves this. I have constant 7ish volts across strobe/bell and 12v+. Panel is powered by POE+.
Just wanted to follow up on this. i hooked up a battery to the deltabell instead of the konnected panel and as soon as i ground either the strobe or the siren with a jumper wire they activate.
I hooked back up to my panel with just 12v, did the same test by grounding out the strobe and it worked fine. im wondering if I have a setup issue or something with the panel. As soon as I hook up the strobe or siren to the Alarm output the red led illuninates. When i press the button in home assistant the red led blinks.
I’m also wondering if it’s possible to use the Alarm output to trigger a relay to stop the output always seeing the constant voltage across the strobe which the deltabell seems to have.
@nate is there anything you can think of? Thank you
That’s exactly how i have it wired. The issue seems to be that the deltabell has constant 10v at the strobe. As soon as I connect the strobe to the Konnected panel the red led illuninates. When i activate the Alarm output the red led blinks. When I deactivate the Alarm i get a brief blue led.
If I jump strobe or bell to +12v they work as normal.
I have a similar issue with this sounder in that my STB connection is causing the Konnected board to light the red LED at the ALARM2 output where it’s connected.
It does work though and the only thing I can think of with yours is that the sounder wont work if the tamper was activated when it powered up. If you tape the tamper switch closed and disconnect the power, does it then work?..
