Hi
Wire as follows

strb - >>>>>> Internal Bell -
ext ->>>>>>>External Bell -
ext+ >>>>>>> External Bell +,
bho,>>>>>>>> Tamper - (Right hand terminal with hammer symbol)
TR >>>>>>>>>Tamper Ret (Left hand terminal with hammer symbol). This will be in series with a 4K7 resistor.

You may need to default and add the keypad then.

How would i go about defaulting the keypad im new to this im only 15 but love alarms and cctv so this is my first system i got

Sorry, just realised it's a CS250 there's no factory link on these. You would need an installer to flash this panel if you want to get a new keypad online.
Is the original keypad still connected or available?

Hold down for 10-15 seconds and see if you get any reaction.
