Not sure if anyone has this setup. I am holding out until Rob Mason has the integration with the Russound system. So here's my story.
I purchased a home a few years ago that had a Omni-Pro II along with 1 - Russound MCA-C5 with all 8 zones used. The omni-pro communicates via RS232 serial to the #1 controller (Original). From my old house I had a new MCA-C5 that i brought with. Over the course of a few months I've installed speakers in a few of rooms. Now bringing my zone count to 10, I've learned the Leviton Dealer Access 3 and added those zones. The new controller was changed from #1 to #2. I updated the Russound SCS-C5 software. I have a small TIA-568A CAT5 cable OUT of #1 to IN of #2.. I am not having any luck.
The existing MCA-C5 that came with the house has an older software version. I remember spending hours at my old place trying to get it to update, to find out that Windows 7 stopped supporting RS232 connection if i remember correctly.
From the documentation I think the omnipro II can support both controllers. Let me know.
