Error with Envisalink 3 and Vista 20p

I am getting this error when I turn on the DSC Alarm Plugin.
I have the Debug level set to Intense and this is what the log reports.
Here are the system specs: OS X 10.9.2, Indigo 6.0.11, Envisalink-3 Firmware Version: 01.11.128A, DSC Alarm Plugin 1.5.4, Vista 20p

I guess Travis isn't working on this plugin anymore?

I suspect he's just busy - he's usually pretty good at getting back to people. He might have just missed this post.

Re: Error with Envisalink 3 and Vista 20p

The plugin supports the DSC message format. Although both DSC and Vista use the same electrical signaling, the plugin is likely not compatible with the Vista Message format, which is quite different.

Has anyone been successful integrating a Envisalink 3 with Vista 20p?

The Envisalink should work just fine with the Vista panel. But of course the DSC plugin will not work since it only supports DSC panels.

Will this plug-in work with the EnvisaLink 4?
