Hello all,

I recently moved to a house that has an old IDS805 alarm system. It kind of works but of course if the siren is activated while I am not in the house, good luck getting notified that somebody is in. Looking at the manual of the alarm I see it has some ‘programmable outputs’. The output goes from 0 to 12V for 3 seconds when the alarm is activated and then goes back to 0V. Now I am thinking I could use a zigbee or zwave device that detects that pulse (i have both networks running independently of the alarm) and notifies me. What kind of a device I should be looking for ? I prefer zigbee but any of them would be fine.
