Measure the voltage across the first two terminals on the block, and also across the aux power out (7 and 8). While I’ve not done it myself, from what I’ve read using a shield or arduino is just a way to gain control of the functioning alarm system…which it doesn’t sound like you’ve got. If you haven't been able to locate it yet, transformer is most likely a big wall wart plugged into an outlet in the attic, utility room, closet, or on the other side of the wall from the panel. I’d like to consider gaining remote control of the alarm itself, but that’s not really necessary for me, so I’ll put my $$ elsewhere!
That’s what I’ve done for my home and it’s been very successful.

Another factor that will influence your decision is if you want professional monitoring or to self-monitor your system. You will either reconnect these wires to your new control panel or cap them off if you don’t plan on installing a different system. Once removed, you will find a bundle of wires.
Once all the other components have been removed, simply pull the panel down. The features you want your home security system to have will influence your decision to reactivate or replace.

Pull off control panels The control panel is the heart and soul of any security system. Tying the wires into the Schlage sensors just tells the sensor whether the door is closed or not, and the Schlage sensor sends the signals to ST for you to see/use. A system that’s older than 10 years may have outlived its lifespan and functionality. The existing door sensors are (most likely) magnetic switches, they just complete a circuit. You shouldn’t need power to the alarm panel. Yes, you could buy multi sensors, but then they’d be exposed on the doors and you’d have to look at them instead of using the already installed, hidden (I assume) door sensors. Extremely professional, very nice looking installation, very knowledgeable, very thorough explanation of my new security system.
