Re: Vista 20 and IR motion problem



You are giving two different ways to do this, one of which disarms the
system automatically, and one of which only shunts the downstairs IR zones.
The zone shunting version I think I'd need to see drawn out, I don't
entirely follow that from your description.  However, I see one big problem
with the automatic disarming version, if I understand you correctly:

Burglar trips downstairs motion.  Alarm sounds.  Burglar heads upstairs,
crossing the arm/disarm motion along the way, and disarms the system.
Alarm stops.  Maybe even sends in a cancel signal.

And if I understand this correctly, under normal conditions the system does
not rearm itself when the user heads back upstairs.  That would be a
drawback for a sleepy homeowner who heads downstairs at night, and remains
unprotected from then on.
