5/ Fitting a door bell
The STORM AXS Strikemaster Keypad will support a door / call bell. This can be activated by the bottom
left key on the Strikemaster keypad, there is no need to supply and fit a separate bell push button.
The bell connection terminal (No 8) is an open collector gate. The bell should be connected to the
Strikemaster keypad via a relay. The coil on the relay should be connected to the positive supply connection
terminal (No 2) and the bell connection terminal (No 8).
When the bell key is pressed a transistor linked to terminal 8 will be driven low. This will allow current from
the supply to be drawn across the relay's coil which in turn will close the relay in the same way as a
conventional bell push will operate.
Use a latching relay rated to operate at 60mA, up to 12V dc.
