I have a Vista 20p system and I want the system to lock and unlock my vault door. The door has two 12vdc electric deadbolt strikes which I currently control from a separate dedicated keypad. Presently, I have to first turn off the alarm with the 6160 keypad, then use the door keypad to unlock the door. This is time consuming and cumbersome.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

It's actually pretty straight forward. You can either get a 4204 relay module or you can use stand alone relays triggered by the onboard trigger harness (the 4204 might be simpler) to activate your solenoid locks.

The hardest part will be programming the output function.
