Napco P3200 firmware update options



Back in about '99 I installed a Napco Gemini P3200 panel with the GEM-
AUTO firmware upgrade for home automation. I used it with Cyberhouse
software for a while (remember Cyberhouse? Where'd it go?). I'm
currently doing some upgrades around the house and am revisiting what
I can do with my panel. I'm wondering what firmware upgrade options
might be available to me and if there's any benefit to upgrading. My
current EPROM version says V11HA. I know the HA is for the home
automation, but I'm not sure if it's V11C, V11D or other. I've seen
references to V20, V30, V40, etc. Are any of these compatible with my
earlier panel and also include the HA features? Is there any benefits
to the newer versions?
Can I use the quickloader PCD-Windows to identify the version? I
played around with it a bit, but didn't see any version information
loaded from the panel.

It seems that Napco dropped the HA support for the 3200 around 2003/4,
then added it back again around 2007/8 and now it doesn't seem to show
up as an option for the latest controllers. Anyone know what the
future holds for HA support on the 3200?

Thanks,
   Todd
