I'd be willing to post my code if it's helpful. My relay unit is a prairie
digital.

Scott,

See Martin Terry's msg as he's doing most of the stuff I want to do except
for the intercom part. Hopefully I'll get that figured out over the
holidays. If so I'll post it here. I'll also post about my attempts to do
the hook-up's via Home Vision - PC.

Later
Tom

tom - i've got a DSC power832 as well, but haven't really looked into what i
can do with it through ECS... how are you planning to interface with the
832? does DSC have a page that lists the things that you can change
(arm/disarm, etc) and the things you can poll for (armed status) ?

thanks...

Has any one out there tried this combination? I want to use ECS to determine
if the system is armed or not and arm it at the appropriate times. I also
want to have certain things happen depending on if the system is armed /
disarmed in the away / stay mode based upon the time of day, turn on/off
lights ect. I also would like it to do certain things depending on who arms
/ disarms (wife / kids each have their own code). Last but not least I want
ECS to phone me in the event of alarm with seperate messages for intruder /
fire / CO ect.
I know its alot but what the hey, Christmas vacation is coming up so I'll
have a little time to play.
