I understand I can buy a standalone unit, but the one I have now works off the 12V supplied by the alarm panel and plus it is linked to my alarm panel with the NO/NC contacts with a supervisory resistor. Try Macurco, but all the ones I've used have been 24V. they might have a 12V version though. nate |
