I have an Autopage rs750lcd and it has worked perfectly for over a year. I recently purchased a dual stage perimeter sensor and want to add it to my alarm. The problem is that my Autopage dosen't seem to have auxilliary inputs. Could I connect the dual stage peimeter sensor to my existing daul stage shock sensor using blocking diodes? If so how can I determine which wire to use for the pre-warning trigger and which for the alarm trigger? I am also planning to add a glass break sensor, can this be piggybacked (again using blocking diodes) with the pin switch trigger? The perimeter sensor has 12v+ trigger but I'm not sure about the shock sensor. Both have four wire hookup and I assume two of these are 12+ and 12v-

grog what your wanting to do is very possible but the install can be very complicated to do correctly and not damage your equipment my suggestion would be to consult with a shop with a good installer they can put an eyeball on it and take the correct steps to install

This will help you. The outputs are (-) trigger so you will not short anything out by attepting this yourself:

Outstanding Velocity Motors, That's exactly what I was looking for. Does anyone know about piggybacking the glass break sensor to the pin switch? How would I connect the perimeter sensor to a window roll up module to roll up my windows on pre-warn?

Why do you want to piggyback the glass break to the pin switch ? If you want to activate the window module with the 1st stage of the radar sensor, you will need a relay to isolate the sensor from the module and this will also act as a (-) signal booster because the activation signal of the radar signal would not be strong enough to activate a window roll up module. As well, you need to find a module that is pulse activated and not 6 second latched or constant. This is very important if you want this to work properly.

Use this diagram for the relay from the radar sensor to the window module's activation wire.

agreed

Or replace the factory shock sensor with a glass/shock sensor combo.
