Default Adding reverse buzzer

I tried to search but didn't find anything. I just recently finished up my gas to electric swap. Went with an dcx600 controller and D&D motor with the PDS rocker FNR on dash Anyone have instructions/diagram on adding a reverse buzzer? I know most people want to remove there but for safety I would like to add one. Thanks in advance

Chris

Connect the beeper's + terminal to B+ from the battery pack.
On DCS and PDS carts, it is attached to the solenoid's battery side main terminal, but anyplace that has Battery pack positive voltage at all times will work.

Connect the beeper's - terminal to Pin-3 on the DCX controller.

I'm with you Chris, I like having the beeper too. I just wrapped it some electrical tape so it isn't so obnoxiously loud.

I think I will locate mine where I can easily get to it. I wonder if anyone has done anything different that the factory buzzer?

DCX controllers don't use beep codes, so you can use just about any Sonalert that can take the system voltage.
IE: different beep patterns and some have volume controls.

I took the backup alarm off mine, since I use it for hunting. I'm planning on using the negative output from the controller to signal a relay to supply power to LED reverse lights.....

Better check the amp draw for the LED reverse lights and ask Alltrax if the beeper port can handle it.
The beeper is a very low current device (0.050A or less), so the driver is most likely pretty lightweight and if you take it out, that might take out the entire controller.

I don't know if it will or won't, just suggesting that you check out the specs on the beeper port before connecting something to it that it wasn't designed for.
