Toggle DSC PGM Output

[rob7419]

Is there a way to toggle the DSC alarm panel PGM outputs through an ISY program and NodeLink?

Currently no.  Haven't found a decent/consistent way of doing it.

Hi @io_guy, sorry to resurrect this old thread, but what about the same question for Honeywell panels? Function keys can be programmed on Honeywell keypads to control the on board triggers -- perhaps we can access this feature via the EVL?

For Honeywell you would need to send the raw command to the panel using the relay server.

Enable relay server and then figure out what key command would be needed to toggle the function key.  For example, arming the panel is really just sending "#2" to the panel.

It took me a little searching but eventually found this thread on an old DSCLink forum about a virtual keypad.

 

 

Followed the instruction and I was able to send a raw command from network resource through the relay server to toggle the PGM #1 output. It's worked flawlessly me me for the last 3 weeks.

Don't know if there's any differences between the DSC and Honeywell commands??

Thanks for this! Do you have any idea where I can get a list of Honeywell commands? I don't see this in the panel programming manual.

No sorry I don't, I have a DSC.
