HKC Point ID Inertia Sensor with Multiple Heads?

    Does anyone know if I can wire multiple inertia sensor heads in series into the HKC Point ID Inertia Sensor? That is use the existing sensor head and add a few ordinary sensor heads in series for the Point ID to analyse?
    Thanks

    On the point ID sensors there are inputs to wire sensors out of.
    Alarm and tamper terminals.

    Thanks Altor
    The ID inertia sensor has terminals marked "contact" and "tamper" on the PCB. I am guessing that the "contact" refers to magnetic reed switches?
    and not necessarily inertia heads?
    or do you think that I can wire the heads in here?

    I was thinking of just adding inertia heads in series with the existing head?

    Thanks again

    Sorry internet went down as I was replying.
    The id sensors have analyzed inputs to take inertia sensors.

    Wire it as Altor suggested, if you start wiring in inertia sensors in series with the existing one in the unit then you are creating problems for yourself.

    Thanks Altor/Kub
    Sounds good.
    So just to be clear I will wire the inertia heads into the contacts terminals in the ID Sensor. I will try that and see how it goes.
    Help much appreciated.
