Re: Wire gauge...

DSC manual states 22-18 gauge for keybus wiring. That's sized for voltage drop on the worst case keypad distance which I believe is 1000ft, for a matter of inches inside the cabinet, pretty much anything is going to work. hint - if you are really concerned about wire gauge on a long run or to somet...

Re: 3rd Party Local API - Beta Testers/Contributers Wanted

Sorry I should have been more clear. I wouldn't trust using the programming TPI through a proxy, I would connect to it directly. If something is maintaining a full time TPI connection though (eg a vera) given the one connection limit there is no other way you can really do it. What would be best wo...

Re: 3rd Party Local API - Beta Testers/Contributers Wanted

Besides going into master mode... what would I then need to send to add/remove/list users? Would this be the same as I would send if i were at the keypad. So I should consult the dsc manual? yes - but right now I am waiting on a beta firmware from envisacor that opens up some of the blocked respons...

Re: Alarming on power loss?

Hehe - I guess I am not the only one with tamper switches in my utility junction boxes. If you want to leave your panel on ups and battery just get a 12 wall power supply, plug in raw power, get a 12v automotive relay and wire the coil across the wall supply and use the contacts of the relay for a z...

Re: 3rd Party Local API - Beta Testers/Contributers Wanted

Yeah personally I wouldn't focus too much on the proxy feature, I wouldn't trust it to do any programming ala DLS. I will give this a look in the next day or two, thanks for your efforts! Why wouldn't you trust programming this way ? - DLS does essentially the same thing through a serial port - You...

Re: 3rd Party Local API - Beta Testers/Contributers Wanted

I did some more work on mine last night and ran into something I never really thought of before - according to the worksheets for the 5020 panel I can put a zone in any combination of the 8 partitions I wish, ok fair enough there might be applications for that but it would be weird, but does anyone ...
