You cannot trigger a macro via an RS-232 command, however, you could trigger the macro via a learned IR command.

The smart macro trigger you program your client's MX-950 could be taught to some IR keypads, but might be problematic with others. Simply set your MX-950 to IR output (make sure the RFID is set correctly) and try teaching to your keypad. Then try it via the IR input of the MSC-400. Don't try to power the keypad from the 5v on the MSC-400, power it separately.

And, yes, you can trigger a macro via a voltage sensor into any of the six sensor inputs. The macro can be triggered when the voltage is on, another macro can be triggered when the voltage is off. If you needed it, you could program another macro that is triggered whenever the voltage goes on or off. Of course you would need an IR to relay device such as Xantech's to send the voltage based on an IR command from the keypad.

So is this not true?
