My M1 started giving two events with a power blip.  This happens with a power blip of a second.    1. 1139 low battery  2. 1141 Expansion module trouble.    I replaced the battery as it had been a while.    The same thing still happens with the new battery.    I checked the system battery test...

What is the best way to install the xtb II r.

X10 pro powerline interface psc05. By the way, garage is 83 degrees this am and it is 64 outside.

The garage is well insulated (room above it) and on the north side of the house so the doors don't get much sun. I have been cracking a window as well for air intake and was thinking of installing some sort of vent. I would be interested to see what you come up with. The temperature...

I know it is possible to check the multiple repeats of data transmission packets for a wireless sensor during keypad enrollment of a new transmitter. It seems that this would be much easier through elk rp software via computer if possible. I could not find out how to check the wireless...

Does anyone have a favorite elk compatible wireless sensor for double hung windows? The other thing I was considering was a wireless sensor on the screen. I guess that if someone cut the screen, I would be out of luck. Any thoughts on the best was to deal with this would be appreciated.
