I assume one 6 way can't do both jobs?


"button set" do you mean a remote keypad and/or display unit?

Might get away with it, if nothing wants DC power (a keypad probably
will)

2 wires one alarm loop
2 wires one alarm loop
2 wires tamper loop (shared between door switch and "button set"

As that door (zone) will be set up as an access door. The alarm won't
sound when you open it you'll have the "entry delay" to get to the
panel or keypad to enter your code before a full alarm is raised.
