Hi all.

I would like o start adding my Visonic 868.95MHz sensors to my HomeSeer setup.
At the moment I already have the "LAN 1 COM port (Order code: 81003) unit", and looking at the info on the rfxcom site, all I need extra is a "868.95MHz receiver with wire antenna for Visonic sensors (Order code: 40079)"

Is this correct, and if so, do I need to open the "LAN 1 COM port" to add the extra receiver?

Thank you for any info on this.

Insert the 40079 868.95MHz RFXCOM Slave receiver for Visonic signals in the free slot in the LAN interface.

Go to the RFXCOM - RF receiver interface configuration tab,
disable one of the currently enabled modes (OS for example)
click Save
Enable the disabled mode again,
click Save
This will configure the receivers in the correct modes.

If you don't have installed Visonic sensors yet:
Go to the RFXCOM - Security configuration page,
Click Clr Heard,
Insert the battery in one Visonic sensor,
Click Add, to add this sensor.
Then insert the battery in the next sensor and add this sensor in the configuration etc.

If you have installed the Visonic sensors already:
Stop Homeseer,
Use RFreceiver on a laptop and walk around and activate each sensor to know the sensors address,
(select Variable Length mode and do not enable or disable modes)
Restart Homeseer,
Activate all sensors again,
Add all sensors in the RFXCOM -Security configuration. As you know the address of each sensor it is easy to select the right sensor.

Install the Beta RFXCOM plugin because there are some major changes in the security part. Send me an email to request the beta.
