Description

Alarm Grid's LYNX-WEXT is the wired version of the LYNX-EXT. This kit comes with all of the pieces needed to make a wired siren compatible with any of the LYNX Touch security systems. This unit comes with a metal cabinet enclosure, a wired relay, a transformer, a battery and a power supply - everything that is needed beside the wired siren itself. You can also add a cam lock to secure the cabinet.

While the 5800WAVE is a perfectly adequate siren for most wireless applications, adding a wired siren gives an installer a few more options, not to mention the ability to put it outdoors. While the alternative kit includes a wireless relay, adding a bit of versatility and avoiding the need to run a wire back to the panel, those for whom the convenience is expensive, this wired kit fits the bill.

To have wired sensors work with your Lynx system, you'll want to get the 5800c2w for this: https://www.alarmgrid.com/products/honeywell-5800c2w
Can we add other wired sensors to this kit?
You will not need to use the GND on the 1361-GT.
Is the GND terminal of the 1361-GT used for this installation?
We actually have a FAQ about doing this setup: https://www.alarmgrid.com/faq/can-i-use-the-lynx-wext-with-my-qolsys-iq-panel-2 As long as you set up your siren as described here, you should be good to go.
No, I'm afraid it won't. See this article on how to add a wired siren to a Lyric panel. https://www.alarmgrid.com/faq/how-do-i-add-a-wired-siren-to-a-honeywell-lyric-alarm-system
I used this with an IQ2 panel. If I need to reboot, like when installing a software update, the siren goes off.
I plan to use this kit with an L5100 panel. Will this kit also work with a Lyric if I decide to upgrade in the future?
Yes, the LYNX-WEXT includes a 1.2A power supply and the WAVE2EX siren draws up to 110mA each so you can hook up 2 (and more) of those sirens in parallel to a single LYNX-WEXT setup.
I currently have the L7000 and plan to hook up 2 external sirens. Am I able to wire 2 - WAVE2EX to the LYNX-WEXT?
