I think this is wishful thinking since Honeywell has home automation they use for themselves.... but....
I use the Honeywell Lynx Touch 7000 security panel with a cell and wi-fi card. It has z-wave capabilities too but is not compatible with Castle as of now.
Hopefully???

Huh, you're in luck, the last couple of releases actually does support the Lynx! That said, it's untested (we don't have that panel yet). Want to test with us?

arm/disarm, garage door open/close is not z-wave. I kept the alarm seperate for security reasons (hacking ive seen on you tube). Can you get honeywell to see castleOS as another keypad like my phone via their app maybe?

Status of system too obviously. Touch is capable of 10 z wave connection without honeywell charging you for services but I wanted Castle to do all that and honeywell just for security.

I only list these things as a wish list!
The Lynx touch has a windows app that could be integrated into the castleos like the thermostats and enable full control of and viewing of the system via the hub.
Let me know if this is still possible, and as always thank you for your patience and help with my learning curve!

Sorry for the delay... Also for a trigger. The garage entry is nowhere near the front or rear doors and not near the kinect in the living area. SO instead of getting more connects I could use the alarm disarm as a trigger for scenes and rules.
Thanks
