Title: Missing Buzzers in panels!
Post by: BarryC on February 10, 2010, 08:53:17 PM

I have just taken over a few new sites from an engineer that has moved on.

The majority of the panels are missing buzzers. There is a mixture of conv / add panels from different manufactors

Soldering a buzzer back on the PCBs seem to be a lot of hassle & want to avoid causing anymore damage to the panels.

Was thinking about wiring 2 buzzers through fire & fault relays on the panel. Have to make sure that the buzzer can be silenced in a fault condition ( easy done on an add.).

Any thoughts or inputs would be great.

Obviously they were cut as if in reception during maintenance it was getting on everyone's nerves , which I can sympathise with .
You need to put back as was , as the lads have commented on , I for one would use a push fit connector fitting so you can disable it as you require , then ensure the buzzer is working when you finish .
