I am having the identical issue. It sucks because it keeps screwing up my time based automation rules.

Ah that did it. Thank you, Iam a bit rusty, I setup the system in my old house many years ago. 

Hey there,    Moved my panel to a new home. After calling 10 installers and none of them willing to pre-wire for sensors before the drywall went up (I lived out of state at the time or I would have done it myself) other then two who both wanted over 4K I decided that at 50$ a window wireless...

I called ELK they told me to switch to voltage and it would work without a resistor (it didnt).    I have it connected on voltage and I also have a resistor crossing + and - which got rid of the message but no idea if the siren is actually working.

Recently moved, reinstalled my panel, mostly working but output 2 troubles.    I dont know how to wire it. There are three wires on the siren, taking two of them (siren and ground) to dump into output 2.    I have tried adding a resistor to the ground side, didnt help.    Is there any fancy...

I am building a new home and they put in double hung windows. Its unclear to me how to use a single sensor to protect the entire window. I have a ELK M1 Gold I am bringing from my old home.    Has anyone ever installed a ELK-6021 sensor and if so can you share a photo of how you did it? Its says...

Very cool but for the transmitter and two units would cost 350$. What about a less expensive wired model recommendation? 

Thanks everyone for the replys. Its crazy to think that all that installation is useless. I guess I was hoping there was a replacement unit that would leverage the 120V wiring and then have its own relay out to the panel.    Since that is not an option from what I am hearing I guess I will get a...

Hey everyone,   I am moving and in the new house there are 8 or so smoke detectors in the house. They are all USI Electric with three wires, white, black, and yellow with a quick connector. I am guessing that is a two wire??? If one goes off, so do the others.    I want to get the smoke detector...
