Re: 7845C in conjunction with a DSC 5020

["Jim Rojas" <jrojas@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In order for the 7845C to report CID, you will need to replace the DSC
5020with an Ademco panel. Then you wire the 7845C across the keypad bus,
then enable ECP reporting on the Ademco panel. Otherwise you are stuck using
the single channels for generic reporting.
