Sure, I could do.
Currently none of the garage is alarmed.
The pir that has been false triggering is part of the camera
in there, which triggers its control box to switch to that
specific video feed.
I've not tapped into this trigger for the comfort.

To be totally honest I'm only just refitting the comfort (we
have had pretty major building work which involved removing
nearly all existing wiring) and previously it was only
installed with a bare minimum set up. Therefore no complex
scripts yet.

Just thought I'd ask as I've been using 8 core BT cable
for the sensors (solid unscreened) and remember the
instructions for the comfort keypads said to use screened
cable...

certainly does.
Thanks Frank.

Cheers,
