How to Connect Siemens Sintony IC 60 to Siren

The Siemens Sintony IC 60 is a home security system with connections for four output signals used to connect a variety of accessories. Depending on your home security needs, one or more can be connected to the control unit. This connection is made by using the specified size of American wire gauge (AWG). To complete this process, you must use basic electrical wiring techniques such as cutting and stripping wire.

Instructions

    • 1

      Measure the distance between where the control module is installed and the placement of your siren. Pick 20 AWG wire for distances of 25 to 100 feet or 22 AWG for distances up to 25 feet.

    • 2

      Pull the wire from the spool and cut it with the wire cutters. Lead the wire from the location of the siren to the control box.

    • 3

      Strip 1 inch of insulation from both edges of the wire. Put the wire in the wire stripper notch labeled for the gauge you are using, squeeze the handles, then pull the stripper toward the end of the wire to remove the insulation.

    • 4

      Wrap the bare wire around the connection screws on the siren so the wire hooks on. Use the flathead screwdriver to tighten the connection points and secure the wire.

    • 5

      Locate the four output pins on the IC 60 control module. Connect the wire from the siren to a single output port by twisting the wire around the pin, then tighten it with a screwdriver.
