Default backup siren install?'s

How do I install my backup siren w/ internal batt.? Red(+) black (-) but what do i do with the other 2 wires, white (+) trigger and blue (-) trigger? Do I splice them into my current siren wire. my current siren wires are 2 gray wires stuck together. Thanks.

true, but once you reconnect to the battery the back up siren will go back to off mode. is there any way into making the siren sound and quirp until you hit a hidden switch or insert the key located on the back of the siren? that way once they disconnect the battery the back up siren will sound and chirp even if they reconnect the battery back on.

Most alarms go off when power is reconnected.
