Re: BT VP1000 and RS232 Pinout

Hi, Have a look here: http://www.domoticaforum.eu/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=6581&start=45#p63022 It describes the pinout for a Powermax+. I'm pretty sure Powermax+'s with earlier software versions did not have Powerlink features, but could connect to this serial port with the Visonic Remote Progr...

Re: Powerlink protocol description

Hi, I'm entering this discussion with a keen interest in this protocol. I'd like to get a PowerMax+ interfaced with my 'MeterkastPC' that is in close proximity.
