Has anyone replaced or integrated their traditional home security system with Hubitat? I have a traditional system with wired door, and wireless motion and glass break sensors, that I'm willing to replace unless I can fully integrate it. My primary goals are to leverage the security motion sensors f…

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, you didn't tell me anything I didn't already know. I am reluctant to use the Envisalink app since the developer is gone. Brian Wilson and I have been in contact but I was hoping to avoid adding a Pi to the mix. I have a Pi I can dedicate to this purpose but I …

Have you considered @ogiewon 's other suggestion: [image] Konnected Alarm Panel connects a wired alarm system to your smart home Connect wired alarm system door, window and motion sensors to SmartThings, Home Assistant, Hubitat and OpenHAB with Konnected.

Not sure that your goals are different, but unfortunately the reality of the situation is that most home alarm systems were/are built as a closed propriatary solution. Some in recent years have allowed Zigbee devices (may also be some ZWave but I haven’t seen them) to be added to their control pane…

Yes, I have previously. I have a couple of problems with going with Konnected. My 6 motion and 2 glass break sensors are wireless so I'll need to replace those with something that directly connects (Zigbee/Zwave/WiFi) to HE. That approach will give me the motion sensor integration I want for lightin…

I understand. I actually replaced my GE Concord system a couple years ago with a DSC system and Envisalink just to get some integration between the two worlds. Thanks for your input.

Thank you @ogiewon , @SmartHomePrimer , @aaiyar , @thebearmay . I appreciate your time. You've helped me confirm what I thought my options were. That is valuable.

yes i have 3 connected boards and have integrated it fine.. i have an issue with one flakey motion detector but the rest ie windows and doors work flawlessly.

I'm interested in this subject too, but I haven't looked at my Envisalink for years. I know that it's still working because every once in a while I'll get an email, or text, (I forget), when I have a (thankfully, false) alarm.

The SmartThings-nodeproxy integration works extremely well. Yes, you’re making part of your home automation dependent on another piece of hardware, but there are so many other opportunities for failure (HE locking up, power issues, etc), it’s not unrealistic to have some LAN dependencies.

To piggyback on this. Just getting started with Hubitat. I have an Ademco Vista 20p integrated with my Vera via ADB2USB. Works OK. Missing some functions that I would like such as detailed status showing which zone is faulted ect. Couple of wired motion sensors and door sensors. A few wireless windo…
