residential alarm wiring

| Looking for infomation on wiring magnetic switches on window and door
jams. I have one wire with a red and a green running from my alarm
pannel past two windows and one double sliding door. The switches
have two wires comming off of them.
The switches are secured, I am not sure how to hook the wires to the
switches or the pannel.

Check the manual for the alarm system. Some are wired parallel, some
series, and there are other 'tricks' to detect wiring cuts, etc. Most
alarms can be configured for the type of wiring used.

eg sometimes you need to add a resistor somewhere.
