I remember learning how to do that back in April of last year when I first started collecting fire alarms I had trouble at first, but when I tried on another, DC power supply, it worked, and I was really amazed how I hooked up my first fire alarm and pull station and got it to work. I was using the notifier NBG 10 duel action and a wheelock RSS 24MCW i’ll never forget that day how I hooked up my first fire alarm without a panel or being mounted onto the wall and got it to work

I use a 24VDC adapter to wire up fire alarms individually (e.g. doing alarm reviews). Not only it will work with pull stations, but it can work with conventional smoke and heat detectors and even key switches!

Yes you could wire pull stations but you need a panel for annunciators to operate. Did you mean alarms perhaps? Because yes you probably could have a whole string of pulls and notification appliances

You know, with the BG 12, you actually don't need to flip the switch back up to reset it. When you close the pull station when resetting it without flipping the switch up manually, it will automatically flip the switch up.
