    I have a ton to do. It's the database swap over, where you have to suck the old database, and key in by hand over to the new platform, after you do a few, it just gets very old very quick. It becomes very boring. You have to remember I have ADD.

    Com "B" is the same communication protocol as Com "A" as in, it's a 3 wire RS485 network. The same communication voltages apply, the communication chip is the same, & the rules of termination are the same.

    Except Com "B" cannot accept I/O boards, it only connects each controller to the alarm panel.

    I/O boards connect to either Com "A" or "D".

    Com "C" is your modem connection that allows remote communication and alarm dial out.

    Yesterday, I took a good look at the ribbon cable from 3211 Pib Board to the processor board while I was changing the main board due to it constantly resetting itself(Got lucky as all the chips matched up). No CPC like part#'s on it. #'s on the ribbon cable were:HCM 23100 AWM Style 2651 28 AWG

    Geezus, man - I'm not sure it would be possible to make that response any more complicated.

    That's for an E2 is that what you were looking for? Or an RMCC
    RMCC. My parts guy ordered and he ended up with the E2 cables. I need the one that connects the 3211 pib to the Rmcc processor. Thanks
