I wish to track zone activity in real-time on my computer (among other
flaws, I'm a programmer). What I don't know is how to sniff data from the
system. I've read about the printer output functionality, but this doesn't
appear to provide real-time zone activity -pass. I can't find anything that
confirms how the keypads communicate with the panel. Is this RS-232 (like
the printer interface)? If so, I could tap the TxD and GND, and watch the
bytes coming down the wire. Has anybody done this successfully? -with
thanks
btw: my apologies if this is an often asked and answered question. I've
spent a few hours googling and found nothing current, or terribly helpful.
