    Doubtful as Atec used a single pair of cables to bring the entire system back to the control panel.
    If your home had been prewired originally then a good installer would be able to sort out the necesary cabling and replace all of the detectors.


    There is a solution from GSD, but I am afraid I cannot help you out there. Their panel can apparently read the Astec wiring and signals as is but the only issue is, you are reusing your old existing detectors and going forward you may limit your options.
