> I am recently deaf and am looking into getting my house wired in such a way > that the lights will flash when the doorbell, phone, fire alarm, baby This is a very frequent question here and there are innumerable ways to help you to do what you want but the first question is - can you tell us more about what's already there? You said "Lighting Control Panel" Can you tell us the controller name, equipment nameplate, model number, instruction manual description? Anything you can provide would be helpful. That way we can tailor a response that's most appropriate to what you already have (and therefore most likely the least expensive route). Claus V.
