RE: CBus programming

Kevin,

I don't current have HomeVision. It was something I was trying not
to get into, however it might end up being something I need to get the
functionality I require. I need to do some reading up.

Not sure who the alarm manufacture is, however I have been lead to
believe that I can get the system to activate some contacts based on the
current state. The idea is for the alarm status to be available to C-Bus,
we
would not be using C-Bus to give status to the alarm.
