Description

Hello all,

I posted in issue #183 but as it's closed I'm not sure if someone read it. So here it goes.

Considering that the project bmpc/mg6250_mqtt has decoded the protocol to the point of being able to receive event messages, would it be possible to use that knowledge in order to add limited support to MG6250 in PAI?

Thank you. Tales

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the existing PAI codebase to understand how different alarm panel models are currently supported. Review the protocol decoding from the referenced mg6250 mqtt project. Identify the integration points (e.g., event parsing, MQTT messaging) and propose a plan to add limited MG6250 support. Also check issue #183 and its context for further details.
