Trying to hack my way to observing two partitions with one alarmdecoder, but cannot get the K command to switch keypad addresses on a Vista 20P. All commands are registered (!KPE:) with the original address and I am not able to get the fault detail to appear for partition 2.

Code: Select all

!VER:ffffffff,V2.2a.8.9b-306,TX;RX;SM;VZ;RF;ZX;RE;AU;3X;CG;DD;MF;L2;KE;M2;CB;DS;ER;CR
!CONFIG>MODE=A&CONFIGBITS=ff07&ADDRESS=18&LRR=Y&COM=Y&EXP=NNNNN&REL=NNNN&MASK=ffffffff&DEDUPLICATE=N


Thoughts?

The 'K' command is used to "send" to different partitions but is not needed to see faults or alarms for other partitions. The AD2* firmware shows all messages from all panels at all times unless an address filter mask is used. To see faults from other partitions just use the address mask to filter messages by mask into groups.

This is better shown in the newer C++ API it is not in the Python API but its not exactly crystal If you have questions please contact me any time to discuss. I check in here less often but I am most days and evenings available via email or phone.
