Hi all

I am adding an extra internal siren to a Networkx NX4DAS home alarm system.

I was planning to run the cable to the existing internal siren but wondering if I need to connect in in series or parallel?

Or should I be wiring to the alarm panel?

Thanks

parallel, makes little to no difference if you run it from existing siren or directly from alarm panel
