Support for takeover system? #10

I was able to use the instructions and the thread about the new refresh_token requirement to add my Xfinity Home to homebridge. Thanks!

I have a hybrid system: it has a "takeover" part with my older security system that was built into the house, and a "newer" part where we added some of the xfinity wireless sensors for doors and windows. When I added the system through homebridge, it is able to see the panel and the newer sensors, but not the takeover part (even though the Xfinity tablet can see both newer and takeover devices). I was wondering if you have plans to support "takeover" parts of the system? I would be willing to help testing. Thanks again.

I believe I may have found one of the reasons why the devices in my takeover module do not appear in homebridge, even though they appear in my touchscreen. You mention in your notes that motion sensors were deactivated because they just clutter home bridge. In my touch screen, the takeover module itself appears as a motion sensor. If there was a way to activate motion sensors (or selectively activate one of them) then I could test if the devices in the takeover module would appear in homebridge. Thanks.
