Just taking a look at the alarm system at our new place and there appears to be a remote receiver connected to the Garage door as well as the alarm.

 

Has anyone here seen this particular unit before and have access to some instructions as I've been unable to find it after a reasonable search online.

Looks like Micron Alarm RCM-1 (Rolling Code Module) Receiver for the remote.

What's the main alarm panel it's on, what are you trying to do with it?

Well it appears the previous owners replaced the door opener and didn't wire this unit in, so it can't operate the garage door.

 

Current alarm is a Micron Scorpion 4 zone model that is no longer available. I'm  considering upgrading to a Konnected system or similar, but I wanted to see what features the existing alarm already had.

Yes those alarms are redundant nowadays, there's a few good ones around, main ones like dsc, bosch, arrowhead etc but depends what you want it to do and monitoring etc as well
