RyanE Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 There is no two-way serial driver for the Visionic security panel at this time.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norvell Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 Thanks,is there any way to configure the powermax or create a driver or simply to recognize the wireless contacts or motion sensors?thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Not currently, unless you purchase the Driver SDK, which is quite expensive to purchase for making a single driver or two.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribsecure Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Sorry to be responding to such an old topic, but has Control4 made the drivers for Visonic available in the meantime?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 There's no 'made available', there just haven't been any developed that I know of.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribsecure Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Thanks Ryan, I'm new to this, what kind of effort would it take to write such a driver? Does Control4 offer such a service? Thinking of reselling both brands (Visonic and Control4). If so, connectivity between the two would be a must, so I should be able to arm/disarm the alarm via Control4 and use the wireless Visonic PIR detectors for lightning control etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Control4 has written quite a few drivers for security panels, but the biggest problem right now is getting it on the roadmap.Right now, your best option to get something done would be to either do it yourself, or look to a 3rd-party to do that kind of work (Extra Vegetables, etc.).Sorry.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Oh, and for an example, you can look at the GE NetworX NX-587E driver. It's pretty straightforward and could be an example for a good programmer to understand what's involved, assuming the Visionic has a decent protocol.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribsecure Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Thanks Ryan, where can I find that driver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I believe it's in the online database.RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
