The Visonic Powermax Plugin for Vera
Visonic produces the Powermax alarm panel series (Powermax, Powermax+, PowermaxExpress, PowerMaxPro and PowermaxComplete). This plugin allows you to control the alarm panel via Vera (arm/disarm) and allows you to use the Powermax sensors (movement, door contact, ...) within Vera. For example, you can use Powermax sensors in Vera scenes.
The Powermax provides support for a serial interface that can be connected to Vera. The serial interface is not installed by default but can be ordered from any Powermax vendor for about £30 (called the Visonic RS-232 Adaptor Kit). Visonic does not provide a specification of the RS232 protocol and, thus, the plugin uses the available protocol specification given in http://www.domoticaforum.eu/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=6581.
