The Horn Output provides 12VDC to power bells, piezo sirens, self-contained sirens, and siren drivers (do not connect speakers to the Horn Output). Sounders can draw up to 1 amp MAXIMUM, split between the Interior and Exterior Horn Outputs - (See Specifications for UL Ratings). Use a relay connected to an auxiliary power supply if higher current draw is required.
