    BHO minus to hold off minus
    BHO plus EXT bell plus
    External bell minus to trigger minus
    Strobe minus to strobe minus
    Return with 4KZ resistor in bell in line to return in panel.

    Only bit I don't understand here is

    Return with 4KZ resistor in bell in line to return in panel.


    I have the 4KZ resistor but cant understand what this last bit means

    Thank you Altor 👌

    Thank you Altor ��

    Put return cable into panel return.
    Then in the bell put one leg of 4K7 resistor in T, other leg will be joined with the cable that goes to tamper return, in series.

    Glad you got it sorted :D

    You will need a HKC keypad to use with the HKC system.
    New touchpad keypad can be got in suppliers now.

    Many thanks for your help, I'm on the North Louth/Armagh border, could you suggest a supplier? Also want to install inside bell, HKC needed as well? Also want to cover 3 doors with wireless door contacts, would appreciate your recommendation

    Have a look here on the suppliers list.
    Internal bells can be made by different manufactures so you would need to see what they supply. HKC do their own Internal bell.
    RF Inertia/contacts have a vibration sensor and a contact built in. Using a contact only on the door means it will only activate the alarm when its open.
