Either you need to tap into the receiver or add an Elk transmitter to the Mule transmitter. Both are doable but it's highly likely it will require advanced electronic knowledge.

"Either" is mentioned, but there's no "or."

Thanks stusviews for all the help and Gary Funk,that did not get me any closer to a solution,because I knew that before I post the question,i need a how to guide or something to try.

If you can provide a schematic of the hardware I can help you. I suspect you could use the output of the Visitor LED to trigger an Elk-924 relay. Or even replace the Visitor LED with in opto-isolator and build a circuit to connect to an Elk zone.

I'm somewhat familiar with GTO (Gates That Open) gear. They don't publish schematics except for installation. So, you're correct. a knowledge of electronics is needed to modify the driveway alarm.
