Thanks for the help and photos. I checked your photos carefully, and I've terminated everything the same, although I'm not entirely clear how you terminated the RS485 line because it's hard to see the exact color of each wire. Everything works properly in manual mode (i.e. programming the...

Thanks for your help. I used your questions as a checklist with the following results: Does the XSP have the proper firmware? Yes, version 1.0.42 Are you sure the data address is not duplicating another unit in your system? Yes, the M1XSP is set to address #1, which is the only Bus Type 5...

Thank you so much for your excellent and quick response. The photos and recommendations are great and really help. You built an outstanding system. I agree that mounting boards flat will be much easier, especially with a large number of inputs. Questions - 1. Are you using the Elk-SWP for...

I have purchased a Elk M1G system for home and need recommendations for a typical (or optimal) layout in a Leviton 42" Structured Media Enclosure. In addition to a few minor datacomm components in the panel, the Elk components in the enclosure consist of: M1G Controller w/ battery &...
