86 - constant fused +12v

85 - (-) trigger from alarm

30 - output to whatever you are trying to activate

87 - either constant fused +12v or ground depending on what you want the output to be.

I got a window module sitting around that ive been wanting to install. It requires 500mA ground when armed, this means that I would do..

86 - constant fused +12v

85 - 200mA trigger from alarm

30 - 500mA wire to window module

87 - ?????

If you have a window module all you have to do is hook up the window module's trigger wire to the alarms's AUX output wire. Hook up the power and the ground and the appropriate wires for up or down.

there is the problem. My alarm doesn't have any 500mA outputs. They are all 200mA. Its a stupid CompuSTAR from like 3 years ago. The instructions from that told me specifically that all outputs are 200mA.

update: Figured it out.

86 = +12v constant

85 = 200mA trigger from alarm

30 = 500mA input of window module

87 = ground.

Does the unit allow you to program the AUX channel from pulsed to constant ?
