Installing my own security system. Not really an expert at security.

I did not run for wire jumpers from one smoke detector to the next. I just homeran a 4 cond wire from each smoke back to the panel

I'm running short on zones so I want to combine all 5 smokes onto 1 zone. By combining all 12v+ and grounds together and then all supervised wires together to lay down on one of the zone terminals.

Here's what I know so far:

the smokes are a normal open circuit, that short when faulted (unlike glass breaks or motion sensors, which are normally closed)

I will need to put an EOL resistor across the terminals of the zone

This zone will need to be programmed as a smoke so it behaves accordingly

It will not be entirely supervised since the smokes don't feed each other, rather all common together back at the panel. But the system should still go into alarm when/if any of them detect smoke

This is a GE NX8E panel

The panel also has a + terminal to provide power to the smokes. Presumably to be able to reset (power cycle) the detectors when needed?
