PDA only confusion.

[Bigfellas]

When I started to research this I thought I was ok because I had a panel with RS wiring digrame stuck to it. So thought I was fine.
Now that I have the hardware I got the serial logger to run and got this report. So I assume this is telling me this is a PDA only unit and from what I am reading probably not worth continuing especially as I have a VSP as well. Can anyone confirm this for me please .

Wiring is the same between both types of panel.
You do have PDA panel.
You may as well continue since you have got this far. Many people use this for PDA only panels and it works for them, others don’t like the limitations and convert to a full RS panel.

Thanks for the confirmation. Looks like I have the web interface configured and working. I will see how it goes with home assistant. Thanks for the hard work you have put into the devlopment @sfeakes
