True it many are finding it is impossible to trigger a macro directly with a security module BUT:

You can indirectly trigger it!

How ? By using Phantom/dummy/virtual modules! ;) :D ;D

Actually I dont want to trigger a macro using a security device, I want to trigger an alarm using a macro or x10 device.
For example if my floodlamp motion detector sees movement and turns on, I want to use that event to also trigger an alarm condition so my x10 securty system dials my cell phone.

Hum I don't know if you can do that I don't have a Ds7000!
But you can use AlertDialer to do that!
It will send a voice message then wait for a responce from you ! ;)
