I have a Pro3000 that was installed by ADT. I would like to monitor
this myself through my home automation system. My problem is, figuring
out how to program the system to give me a relay (dry-contact) output
that toggles folllowing the arm / disarm status of the system.
Does anyone here know if this can be done?? I know how to program the
3000, I just can't see how to do this part.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

If you know how to "program the 3000", then you must also have the
"programming manual". So why are you asking this when the answer is
right in front of your face? It's obvious to me that you *don't* know
how to "program the 3000". This is an Ademco Vista 20P. What kind of
keypad do you have (model number). Without the proper keypad, you're
going to find it extremely difficult (if not outright impossible) to
program the panel.

I don't know that that a Pro3000 is a Vista 20P. But if it is a Vista 20P it
should be easy to do with a Ademco 4204.
Program 20P for using the 4204 the relay(s) for trigger type 2 and zone type
20, 21 or 22 and device action of 2 or 4 and the respective device (relay)
number. That is all depending on exactly what relay you wish to use and the
relay action you want it to be. You will have to have a keypad like a 6160
or use Compass software (not available to anyone but ADT for ADT brand
panels). Programming relays on any Ademco panel can be a bit "funny". Many
times there are several ways to program the relays to get the same end
result.

From the instructions:
Connect each module to the control's keypad terminals and set the device
addresses
as previously described in the Connecting Keypads and Other Addressable
Device section. Use the connector harness supplied with the module. Use
standard
4-conductor twisted cable for long wiring runs.
VISTA-20P: Up to 16 relays (if no powerline carrier devices are used)
VISTA-15P: Up to 8 relays (if no powerline carrier devices are used)
3. Connect the desired field wiring to the unit's relay contact terminals.

installed:

He doesn't need a 4204. He can use the onboard trigger output to fire a
12 volt relay (which would be cheaper than buying the 4204 or the 4229
zone expansion module). If he already has the 4229 zone expander, it
comes with relays on board.

The point is he obviously doesn't know how to program the unit (or
doesn't have the manual). He hasn't given us enough information about
his setup.
