_Exactly_ the same as the wiring diagram! Rather than stripping away an arbitrary part of the power supply's input leads, I thought it was neater to twist the secondary positive ins with the main dc input and tighten them all into the main positive dc input terminal. The negatives from the sirens and buzzers I did likewise with the main dc negative input. But I can't think of any reason that wouldn't be fine. The circuits wouldn't be triggered until the mosfets change states...
During the day I double checked that nothing's come loose, but it seemed fine. And it seemed to be okay when I checked (numerous times) yesterday.
Oh nooo. I didn't look closely enough at the power supply I purchased! I've been sent the wrong one - it's 12V but only 2A, it should have been 3A! Could it be possible its enough to power the KC868-A16 but not enough to change the state of the mosfets? I'd need 2.5A or over wouldn't I? ?
