CAM8 CCTV

["Stainton-James, Mark (London)" <stainmar@xxxxxxx>]

I have got a CAM8 4 Camera CCTV system, and am now looking a trying to
find
a way to remotely change the mode.  What I would like to happen is
when I
turn the alarm on the system automatically goes to AWAY mode, when the
system is disarmed it then goes to SCAN mode.

I already generate an X10 command for the alarm changing status, so I
think
there are 2 options I have - 

1st I think there are discrete IR codes that can be sent via a
hardwired
lead into the back of the system (from the description I think this is
how
the remote CAM25 control panel works) If I go down this route does
anyone
have any recommendations of IR hardware that works well with Homeseer ?

Secondly I 'think' I read in the manual you could change the mode of
the
system with a 12v pulse on one of the connectors on the back + power
flash
etc .  Unfortunately I have lost the manual so can not investigate
further
if this cycles through each of the modes, or only does 'home' and
'away'
modes  (I want AWAY and SCAN modes)

As always, any ideas much appreciated, any if anyone has a copy of the
manual that would be fantastic.

Mark
