Abstract

A gateway module including a security system interface for interfacing with a security system control panel via a security system bus, a peripheral device interface for interfacing with a peripheral device, and processing circuitry for controlling operation. The processing circuitry transceives security system data to and from the security system interface, wherein the security system data is configured in a security system protocol suitable for communication with a security system control panel, and transceives peripheral device data to and from the peripheral device interface, wherein the peripheral device data is configured in a peripheral device protocol suitable for communication with a peripheral device. The processing circuitry is also adapted to translate security system data to peripheral device data, and also translate peripheral device data to security system data.
