    All it needs to work is permanent power (12vdc) and negative trigger for the bell & strobe. Why wouldn't it work?
    Don't forget a common negative between the panel and power supply. Also save the grief and order a 6 volt sabb.

    thanks for the confirmation Stephen. I agree the 6volt SAB is the ideal & easiest solution.

    Do when you arm the panel the stobe keeps flashing until unset? Do the LEDs not flash side to side? Glad you have it working

    Hi All

    Just an update. Have sabb up and running and all good so far.
    I know a 6v sab was the obvious solution but like I said in original post it was proving hard to source one, also again the hkc box is a clone of the phonewatch box which meant I kept the pw logo by just swapping covers!
    I now have a working external bell albeit with some compromise for a fraction of the cost eircom would have charged.

    Thanks all for your input as it was very much appreciated.

    But it has no tamper ... Therefore it can be tampered with and the alarm rendered useless .. If he hasn't the digi setup

    Once a SAB is powered it will activate if opened.

    It's very easy to disable a tampered bell box. Any installer worth their salt knows this.

    And at that stage the bell is compromised either way, whether tampered or not.

    If its tampered then the internal bells would activate and the panel could dial out ...

    And it will do if someone breaks in after they disconnected the bell.
    The OP is sorted, He wasn't looking for a system to EN50131 grade 2 , he was looking for a working solution & HKC verified what works,
