  Well, do to my own time management issues I haven't finished, but here is what I've got:
  
  http://obex.parallax.com/objects/775/
  
  Sensor Schematic (if using less than 6 must be attached in order)
  
  

  

  
  
  I owe an incredible amount of thanks (in no particular order) to:
  Mike G
  Beau Schwabe
  Roy ELtham
  Jeff Martin
  Andy Lindsay
  Chip Gracey
  and all the others that they built on.
  
  Sorry that I do not have more to show. Thank you for the opportunity.

  In "kd_SensorArray.spin" i have trouble to compile on all the sensors routines ?
  
  
  If (sensorsAttached >= 1)
  setState(1,0,1,0,0,1)
  sensorWait= cnt *******' FAULT give :expected operator
  Waitcnt(sensorWait + 50_000)
  trippedsensor[0]=ina(middlePin) *******' FAULT give :expected operator
  
  ...........
  
  I try == and := but nothing
  
  
  Thanks for help

  I see your issue...your code should look like this:
  

  If (sensorsAttached >= 1)           
      setState(1,0,1,0,0,1)
      sensorWait := cnt                   'Give a 10ms pause so pins can be set appropriately and sensor circuit can be powered
      Waitcnt(sensorWait + 50_000)
      trippedsensor[0] := ina[middlePin]   
  

  
  Then it should compile. It looks like the source from the OBEX has these issues in it. It is also missing an object from Brildea.
  
  As a note, I have a custom home alarm system originally built around a BS2p40 and a BS2 which also sends me TXT messages on status upates, but I built mine back when we were developing the PINK Module, so it uses that. I had always thought about updating the system to use a Propeller though someday.
