It has been a while since I looked at it.  Security-IFC-A is just the
wireless receiver, Security-IFC-B is the stand alone security system.  I'm
glad you asked me this question because I just found out that
Security-IFC-B is not supported by ECSW.  I was planning to upgrade to
this soon.  Mark, might this be supported in the near future?  ECSW
programs the sensors through the wireless receiver.
