I'm in the process of building a backyard ADU/Studio and wasn't quite sure what the definitive way to monitor the unit would be. I am planning on adding motion and/or a glass break sensor and a door sensor, and a secondary keypad.
I was initially thinking of running a cat6 to the unit and connecting it to a ELK-M1XIN and then wiring everything locally to it. Would this setup work or do I have to homerun everything back to the main panel? Also could I operate that ADU as it's own zone arming/disarming it separately from the main house?
Thanks in advance for your wisdom!
