Unless your alarm has a pulsed siren/horn output, and a constant output all you can do is connect them up directly and have them just blast for 30sec., and unless you can program chirps off, every time you arm/disarm the alarm the air horns will blast, nothing is going to **** off your neighbours more then you arming the alarm late at night or even worse, disarming it early in the morning.

So question is, what is the make and model of the alarm?

Also...
Do you want to keep the alarms "stock" siren?
Do you want the air horns to only go off if the alarm is trigged?

Whatever way you want it, it can be wired, once I have more info I can get you something. 94

I'm running an Omega air horn off my alarm.

The way I dealt with the arm/disarm beep is to place a PAC TR7 between the alarm's siren output and the horn relay. The TR7 can be programmed with a time delay function so routine arm/disarm tones don't set the alarm off.

I have the horn go off after 15 secs. and I run it continuously. A second relay can be used off the alarm's light flash output to pulse the horn after the 15 secs.

You can also do this without the PAC TR7 using the alarm's GWA output, but without the time delay. I like the delay incase I set the alarm off accidently - I can disarm it without the horn annoying the neighbors.

EDIT: Unlike the standard alarm sirens, the horns *will* get attention, so it really is advisable to make sure your sensors are adjusted properly and the horns don't blast with the arm/disarm tone. I have set the horns off accidentally and people WILL come out of their house, esp. with the loud, continuous tone. It is not familiar like the 6-tone sirens.
