ADD SENSORS VERA LITE -Vista Alarm Panels Plugin via AD2USB

Plugins & Plugin Development Unmaintained
1

I have my Plug-In installed and the AD2USB working like a champ as far as appearing in devices. Problem is, when I go to CHEAT SHEET to add my sensors, it is asking for variables I have no idea how to find.

Can someone please help me to better understand this process of perhaps point me toward other documentation.
Anything I have found appears out of date and is proving no relief to the issue.

Thanks!!

For hardwired sensors and wireless sensors enrolled in the panel you can just add the zone # and name it, for wireless sensors that are not enrolled in the panel you can give it any zone number you want, name it and enter in the serial # found in or on the sensor, for the loop number look in the product manual to see what loop # you will need to enter, usually a 1 or a 2.

you might also try entering in the serial and loop # for wireless sensor that are even enrolled so they will respond even when panel is armed, I am not sure about this as i do not have any wireless sensors enrolled in my panel.

All of my sensors in building 1 are wired…only building (partition) 2 has wireless. Will try to apply some of this tomorrow. I had no idea the serial number would be relevant on a dummy magnetic contact switch like a wired door sensor. Will check out the panel manual as well to better understand the loops. For the zone, is that the partition or something I will find more about in the alarm manual. The wired sensor I am experimenting has an id of 02 on partition 1 keypad when the door is opened.

Thanks for the input…
