C4tune Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I have a DSC contact with aux contact inputs. Need to determine when people and vehicles cross a line in driveway. I do not plan to have this zone fire the alarm, but would like to hear the keypads beep when there is a car or object entering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dew1551 Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 You could just use the contact as input to your controller normally open and fire a control4 annpincment when sensor is tripped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Running a single ea-3. Got the dsc aux that works with my neo. This way I don’t need my amp starting all the time. It can just chirp my keypads throughout home.

dew1551 Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 This is not shown as being ok for outdoor usage? He wants it for driveway use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The base that goes inside the home as nc, no, and com ports. Should work perfectly to chime my dsc neo keypads trough the use of an aux contact sensor.

I have a DSC contact with aux contact inputs. Need to determine when people and vehicles cross a line in driveway. I do not plan to have this zone fire the alarm, but would like to hear the keypads beep when there is a car or object entering.
