Hello,
I recently moved into a new house which came with a GE alarm system setup. It includes a 2Gig GC3 panel, secondary keypad, Kwikset 910 smart locks, some WTZ005 3-way switches, and various door and window sensors which I’m not sure if they are 433MHz or Z Wave (I assume Z Wave like everything else). I have full access to the GC3 panel, including installer codes.
I do not want to pay up to $40/mo for a company to monitor this system, and I’d much rather have full control over everything myself, so I am trying to integrate everything with Home Assistant. I’d like to keep the primary panel to use as either the primary or secondary controller with Home Assistant filling the other role. I could rip everything out and buy all new equipment though that’d obviously be my absolute last resort. I’d like to avoid having to relearn all the ZWave devices if possible, as apparently the switches require a Minimote to setup? I do not have one of these and cannot find any. I did purchase a Nanomote but I’m not sure if it has the same functionality.
Could I setup HA as a secondary controller to the GC3 panel, and give HA the ability to control all the ZWave devices that are already paired with the GC3? Or is it pretty much a given that I will have to reset everything and re-add every device one by one to HA (some of which I’m not even sure I can reset/relearn or if HA supports them)
Any guidance on the subject is greatly appreciated!
