Connect my existing burglar alarm system
-
Hi,
I have an existing alarm system in my house and I want to find out if I can connect my domoticz to it using MySensors?
I have a Texecom R8 burglar system and using the leds keypad. An example picture of my keypad:

I looked a little bit around on the internet and I found this:
http://hackaday.com/2012/07/27/bending-a-home-security-control-panel-to-your-will/So my questions:
- Can I use the same procedure on my alarm system?
- How must I edit the sketch for my alarm system, because my leds and buttons are different?
- How must I connect the radio to it and what must I edit in the sketch in order to get it working?
Or is it better to just use a relay switch somewhere?
Hope someone can push me in the right direction? Thanks!!
