In most cases the answer should be in parallel at the last sensor. However
that assumes that you will generate a trouble on open and alarm on short. If
you were trying to be too clever by half, you could program certain panels
to have the alarm triggers reversed and wire it a number of funny ways. You
would be shot on site by the next technician that serviced the account
however. Some panels use zone doubling that can be equally as irritating to
service if done incorrectly.
