Just a little further detail on my alarm notification installation…
The schematic on my septic (posted above) shows block Terminal-5 and block Terminal-Neutral designated for a remote alarm installation. This circuit will close when the Floyd Bell Alarm is energized and is what I used to wire PAM-1 relay.
From the relay I connected the Yellow/Normally Closed wire, and the Blue Common wire to the contact sensor.
The contact sensor pairs with a Yolink hub that resides in the mechanical room in my lower level of the house.
While I’m fully invested in the Smartthings universe, with about 40 paired devices, I’m quite satisfied with Yolink. I became interested in Yolink primarily for their water leak sensor, which run about $17 on Amazon. I have 10 of these throughout the house and have been totally reliable. Yolink claims their devices have a range of 1/4 mile, so it is a particularly good fit for remote site monitoring.
I believe this configuration would work equally well with a Z-wave or Zigbee sensor.
