This is the rear of a BG-12LX on an addressable fire alarm system Please note this pull station is installed so it has wires that your new pull station will not have. First open the pull station and you will notice a white "module" with an LED on the front. Grasp that with two fingers and pull that straight out and throw it away.
Now, turn the pull station over. Notice the set of terminals with screws on the left with the red and black wires? That is the "module" side of the pull station. Now do you notice the two terminals to the right with no screws and two wires (green and white) soldered to them? You want to move the screws from the two terminals on the left to the two screw-less terminals on the right.
There are NO wires to move, and no wires to cut. Completing these two steps converts the pull station from addressable to conventional.
