Hello, to All, and especially Jim Rojas,

Working backwards from entry 51, Jim, I can only fear that you are
correct about NYC requirements.  No, it never occurred to me that the
city would have anything to say about a security system.  I only added
the fire because it was available, I was renovating my home and, I
thought, since I was wiring the house myself anyway...

But let me cross that bridge if I come to it.  I want to do something
else here.

I found this list in a desperate search for answers enumerated in my
original post.  Several here offered help.  Thank you all.  But
especially, I thank, with a bit of reverance thrown in, Mr. Jim Rojas.
I do not know if this is a list of installers only or experts only or
how it came to be.  My experience is that when neither my nephew, who
trouble shoots Slomin systems for a living, nor my central office could
help me, a gentleman who is fantastically easy going and generous and,
to a person like me is now, also mystical, came up with the answer in
minutes.   Perhaps the other contributors to this list are at the same
level.  If so, congratulations and what a wonder.  In any case, this is
the first time anyone has ever told me to jack a telephone into the
line when my panel was on it so I could listen to the software because
one can frequently tell by the sound what is wrong.  I will have to try
this.  Until I do, however, my imagination tells me that I would hear
something like modem hand shakes and R2D2 speak.  If this is so, Jim
Rojas, and perhaps others of you, are like those guys in The Matrix who
look at ones and zeros and see... life.

Thank you all.  Thank you, Jim.
