Is it possible to hook this up to a smart outlet that switches on when an alarm sensor is triggered and turns on the switch (turning on the siren)?

It has two types of siren's, a warble and a constant. They operate off of 12volts so as long as your sensor will put out the 12v's it will soundthe siren. I've had customers apply this to entry doors for instance so they can here when someone comes in their shop or yard's.

Absolutely! I hooked it up to a motion sensor light. However you need two things: 1. get a toggle switch to shut off the alarm because it will turn on until the motion sensor warms up. 2. you need to get a dc/ac adaptor so you can plug it into the house current. I made two and they work great.

Suppose that you could...you would need a transformer to change the voltage down to 12v (I think, or it may be 24v). But as long as you use that, I would think it would work.

The alarm is designed to be plugged into your wall like any other appliance. If you have a bit of electrical knowledge you could hard wire it. I simply plugged mine in since I had an open receptacle. Hope this helps.

Yes as mentioned in the other replies. The siren goes under the hood and is connected directly to your battery with a positive (red) and negative (black) wire. The sensor plugs into your car's 12 volt outlet. The sensor has to be on to charge. To enable the sensor unplugged the senor unless power is removed from your outlet when the key is turned off. The LED will go out, this means the sensor is armed, but not the system. To enable the alarm system press the button on the remote and you will here 2 beeps for armed and one beep for unarmed. There is also a variable setting on the sensor to adjust sensitivity. The sensor is a wireless device that communicates to the siren under the hood. Yes as mentioned in the other replies.

I never try that but if you know how to connect it, it should. I assume you use the motion sensor as a power switch.

Neither. It's 12VDC and doesn't have a jack for a wall adapter. You have to direct wire it to a 12VDC source. But that shouldn't be a problem because you have to wire the sensor wires back to an alarm panel anyway. So you can just use a standard two-pair alarm cable for both power and sensing. If you just want a standalone CO detector, there are numerous simpler and less expensive devices at most home improvement stores.

This will work pretty much universally. But, it is not plug and play. You will need to individually tap each wire. There are a lot of sites that provide model specific diagrams for adding alarm systems.

Not a professional but when my brother hooked ours up to the original unit it worked fine with the old siren and now the new one so when the siren went off during entry it blasted at both end of the house. I see no reason why it wouldn't work only on the panic side button but I would assume if its hooked up properly it should work either way. Thanks

This is a car or house alarm system siren. I bought it to go outside my house in addition to the inside siren to make sure my neighbors hear my alarm going off. It hooks up to the bell connection on the wiring panel, along with and on top of the inside siren wires. It is powered by the system which I believe is 12vdc. You could use this siren for other purposes using 12v but do not use a regular speaker in the place of this siren for an alarm system. I am told it will fry your alarm system. I hope this helps to answer your question.

The sensor you are referring to is actually the switch itself. If you require an alarm, you may have to buy one and integrate it to the float switch wiring to provide the additional functionality.

Yes !but actually what you would do it's simply don't connect it, but to turn it on and off you would have to cut the power to the outlet used to plug it !

There is an internal battery that allows the alarm to operate for some time. The siren in the base unit will sound, but not sirens plugged into wall sockets. I have mine plugged into a UPS, and know it will operate at least 24 hours. It worked fine for me during the last power outage.

Yes but you need it connected to your alarm provider as it doesn't have its own interface to the internet.

You can, but I not sure why. These are hardwired detectors designed to sound an alarm tone on all compatible detectors on that circuit. Seems you might be as well off with a battery operated detector.

This is a DUhhhhh question!!!! Of course you can!!! You don't have to get creative until you try to integrate it into an security panel, Because of the current draw, you need to get the security panel to trip a relay, capable of safely carrying the current draw of the siren. any sort of switch capable of handling 12VDC @ 500ma. should be fine ... A wall light switch will work just fine .For a nicer looking switch try an automotive store and they will even sell you the switch attached to a stylish switch panel.

Yes, the receiver (base unit) is in the house and has a selector switch to set the unit to a constant beep, to a siren or to OFF when a sensor is tripped! You in effect are not turning the sensors off, you are turning off the "monitoring" of the sensors.

I have no idea.... its 12 volt dc. if your system puts out 12 volt dc on line to siren it will work. just test it with a tester.
