Hello, I currently have a Honeywell accent G4 alarm panel and I would like to upgrade the connections on my door contacts to EOL. They are currently wired as just standard 2 wires in the door switch for tamper, just wrapped together and clamped with a brass screw and 2 for the alarm zone on both contacts in the switch. I have been watching videos on KZbin on how to install 1k resistors to the door contact but I can’t find anything on how to change the way the wiring is currently wire in the panel on the zone. The tamper in the panel is currently wired as a Aux tamper and all the pir’s and door contact are daisy chained together. I understand that in the door switch’s I will need to disregard one of the alarm cores and one of the tamper cores to install the resistors but what do I do with the disregarded cores from the door contact switch’s in the panel end. When I remove these 2cores from the panel (1 from the zone and 1 from the tamper what do I put in place for the one which will be removed from one side of the zone. As for the tamper I’m not sure are this core will be connected to the Aux tamper with the rest which are daisy chained. Any advice or a diagram in layman terms would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, an Accent G4 cannot use EOL, you are correct in saying it uses a "global" tamper and individual alarm zones which will either be open or close. It doesn't see or recognize resistance changes that an EOL system would use. The panel simple see's an Open Circuit (the door open/ the PIR has seen something) or Closed circuit (the door closed/ the PIR doesn't see anything)
