Who has used an access control panel as a lighting controller? Any tips or tricks?

I was at a customer location adding a door to the S2 system. The maintenance guy asked if I knew anything about lighting controllers. I looked at it, it is the original from the new build 20 + years ago. It has a z-80 processor and a bunch of socketed dip chips. I didn't measure the voltage that was being switched, but the 4 square j-boxes say low volt lighting triggers.

Holesawing a live panel is always extra fun 👍

You would not believe how slow I was going, and checked 6 times👍

My very strong wife said she could pack my oh so heavy ladder pretty easily 👍

It is really balanced well carrying like this, the fiberglass version is smooth on the inside, my metal one is not as comfy like this.

Here is my 5 point harness in use, the ladder is secured to the pole, the helper cannot fall off the ladder, this is what I was using on the sketchy ladder tied to the van
