2 texecom oddyseys to 2amp power supply?

hi there, i wish to install 2 texecom odysseys to my house front and back, i want them both on sab mode,both odysseys in sab draw 1046ma, so i have bought a 2 amp elmdene power supply, the system is a scantronic 9600 with 7 zones with a speaker and an elmdene internal sounder. there is a cable running to the loft, how would i go about wiring the 2 oddysseys to the power supply, can i use the cable from the panel for the negative link, tamper and triggers, i know this sounds a bit much but i want to give the burglar's a moment they will never forget thanks

Your wiring is incorrect for the tampers.
Read the booklet that comes with the items.

Relay is as per any other, use the source trigger to switch another supply.

hi there very sorry, forgot to ask, so i wire both units to the power supply twisting and connecting the +ve and -ve from each unit to the psu output, also connecting the -ve link from the 0v in the control panel, then twist the single tamper return from the units in the psu to the tamper return on the panel cable, and leave the 12v from the panel to psu disconnected.

also how would i wire the relay for the triggers thanks

Power the sounders from the PSU.
Common the negatives to give the tamper return.
Use a relay to switch the panel trigger to the PSU supply.
Use a relay to switch the strobes.
Use one DP Relay to make life easier.

i did say i have a speaker as well an elmdene internal siren which are both extremely loud in the house, but i would also like to make loud noise outside as well, obviously the panel cannot support the 2 odyys, therefore i have bought a 2 amp power supply, is it just a case of wiring both units to the power supply connecting there +ve and -ve psu output and using the cable from the panel , for the tamper, negative link, and triggers? thanks

pretty much all burglar alarm bellboxes in the world would be useless if people cant hear them from inside. i find that very unlikely

im sure that 2 sounders can be heard from inside, masterblaster is overkill, its outside that will scare them off back or front so how would i wire the 2 oddys to the power supply thanks

According to my info two oddys would draw 1220 ma in alarm and strobe combined.

And sounders outside can often never be heard inside.

What are your intentions?
For an internal noise a master blaster would be the "moment" you are looking for.
