My house alarm is an Ademco Vista 20P which, as far as I know, does not have an RS-232 port available. I am thinking of getting Homeseer and would like for the Vista to tell Homeseer when an alarm occurs so I can have Homeseer do various things like call me and send camera images over the internet, in addition to its normal HA functions. My plan is to have the Vista send an x-10 signal to Homeseer upon alarm. Is this a viable plan? Is there something I am overlooking that will rise up to bite me?
Plan B would be to get a Caddyx or DSC or such that has RS-232 output, but I would obviously rather keep the system I have.
Thanks.
