I have 3 16-zone zone expanders plus each keypad of mine provides an
additional 4 zones. So technically I have:
        8 zones (XR200-485 panel)
        48 zones (3 expanders)
        16 zones (4 keypads)
        -------------------------
        72 zones

Of those, I currently have 51 zones in use which give me 21 more
available.

I believe that the keypads and the zone expanders are on the LX bus so
they don't use up a zone.
