AD2USB

[Tom Yarmas]

Ah, that explains it. It did come with UI7 as best as I can tell. I sent a message to Vera support so they should be able to get me to UI5. Although I did read some message on the Vera forum that people are using the plug-in with UI7. Maybe if you install it with Ui5 and upgrade to UI7 it will work?

Thanks.

I am assuming that you have assigned an key pad address for the  AD2USB in the vista panel.  You need to use that same address in the KeyPadAddresses variables field for the Ademco Vista Partition that will have been created.

Not sure if I have a newer Vera and the screens have all changed or what. There is never a device in the serial port configuration screen so that I can adjust the baud rate…

Not sure how complicated it becomes to track and respond to motion detectors (faults on the Ademco) and arming, etc. I guess I can hook it up and monitor with the DIY interface and see what comes across the interface.
