    KNX/EIB KNX alarm to siren connections

    Hi all.

    I have a Gira KNX alarm system and I need help connecting it to a Elmdene Rapier 6000 external siren.

    You can check both the Gira connections and the Elmdene connections on the photos.


    This is how I connected them:


    Elmdene - Gira

    1 (H+) - 12v/ 0,1A (I have doubts on this)
    2 (H-) - 12v/ 0,1A GND (I have doubts on this)
    3 (RTN) - don't know where to connect
    4 (-ST) - Blitz (-)
    5 (-R) - ASIR (-)


    When I connect like this everything works, but:

    - Don't know where to connect the tamper return (RTN)
    - The light strobe is very dimm (you almost can't tell it's strobing)


    so,
    Am I connecting the + and - to the wrong place?
    Where shall I connect RTN?
    The siren is rated 250ma and the strobe 150ma. The Gira external 12v makes reference to only 100ma power. Can it be a low power issue?
    I still haven't cut the engineer link on the siren (makes siren act for 5 seconds max.). Does it have anything to do with it?


    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

      Hi MikeMelga,

      i think that these systems don't work together. Because the Gira-System give power seperately for siren and strobe at the Connectors 12V(+)/Blitz(-) and 12V(+)/ASIR(-). The connector 12V / 0,1A doesn't have enough Power (100mA) The other 12V+ connectors (Blitz,ASIR,ISIR) does have together 1,6A.
      In relation to RTN try this:
      GiraX2 Elmdene
      Sabo -> RTN(8)
      GND -> RTN/SEL(6)
      It's to trigger an alarm if someone cut the cable or open the siren.

      I hope i could help a little bit, maybe you can connect siren and strobe without using the elmdene-elektronic.
      If your problem is already solved, please tell me how.

      Greets and good luck ;-)
