The Internal Alarm Siren on The Lyric Alarm System

In this video, Jarrett from Alarm Grid talks about the internal siren used with the Honeywell Lyric Security System. The Lyric has an internal sounder rated at 85 dB. This activates during intrusion and life-safety alarms. You can also add an extra siren if you need further emergency sound coverage.

The Lyric uses its internal sounder to alert building occupants to emergencies. It is designed to let people inside the building know that there is a serious situation and that they need to evacuate the premises immediately. The siren produces sounds of up to 85 dB. This is loud enough to alert everyone in a smaller home or business. However, larger buildings and establishments may require something louder.

The good thing about the Lyric Siren is that it works along with the rest of the system, and no special programming is needed. It is good for alerting individuals if you have the system set up and want to make sure that everyone is alerted to emergencies. But users in larger buildings might want something louder to ensure that everyone is alerted to a break-in or a life-safety event. Fortunately, there are louder sirens available in these situations. An easy option is to add a Z-Wave siren, such as the Qolsys IQ Siren. You will need to set up special scenes for the siren to function properly, but it is still a relatively easy way to increase the volume of your security system.

You might also consider adding a hardwired siren, but this is usually only needed for users requiring the loudest of sirens. Often, users in industrial or commercial enviroments will add hardwired sirens to get their systems loud enough for everyone to hear about an emergency. The Honeywell Lyric Security System can easily support a siren by using a compatible Z-Wave relay such as a FortrezZ MIMOlite device.
