    Elk M1 and AlarmRelay Monitoring Via M1XEP

    I just signed up for service tonight. I got my TG-1 Express working in the matter of minutes with them on the phone, but the XEP is throwing the communication error you are all experiencing. I am a software engineer by trade and have a lot of networking background so if I can be of any...

    ELK SP12F Wiring

    For the life of my I cannot find this in any of the documentation online. I know I need to run this in parallel, but what do I wire them with? I have a fair amount of 14/2 in-wall rated speaker wire left over. Is that good? Should I pick up some 18/2 instead? I have 8 of these to run for my M1G...

    Elk M1G - Telular TG-1b or TG-1 Express

    Thanks Del, I am going GE mostly because it is what I am familiar with and I love the simplicity of the Micra-G's. With regards to the moisture sensors, do you have a transmitter that you like in the GE realm? Thanks, Jim

    Elk M1G - Telular TG-1b or TG-1 Express

    I am going to order the bulk of my cable tomorrow, the 22/4 I have covered as well as the cat6. What cable are you suggesting I run to the TG-1, 22/6? My Cat6 is 23awg.

    Elk M1G - Telular TG-1b or TG-1 Express

    Del, Again, thank you :). The pigtail was a carry over fro when I had all KP2's in the order before I realized they were not as feature rich as the order style keypads. The two M1KP's will be the units using the fobs (garage and front door) where as the single KP2 will be recessed in the...

    Elk M1G - Telular TG-1b or TG-1 Express

    Del, Thank you for the education. On that word, I will ensure that I order an sensitive relay (ELK-924) when I place my order with Martin later this week. Is there anything else I might need (minus your cable recommendations) to make this all work with the primary cell option and being able to...

    Elk M1G - Telular TG-1b or TG-1 Express

    Ah, thats a shame about Telguard Interactive, it is one of the key features I was looking forward to (software engineer by trade). Is there any way to enable this functionality with the M1G (by purchasing another module or 3rd party solution)? Thanks, Jim

    Del, I was planning on running a 22/4 and CAT6 to the location, will that cover me? Would you mind if I paste my whole order here for you to look over? Thanks, Jim

    Elk M1G - Telular TG-1b or TG-1 Express

    Thanks Russ, that is the same conclusion I came to, thus my surprise at their pricing. I will get the TG-1 Express and a second battery for the Elk. Thanks, Jim

    Elk M1G - Telular TG-1b or TG-1 Express

    All, I am looking for a cell only solution for my new M1G install that I will be performing in a couple of months. I have decided on one of Telular's units but cannot for the life of me figure out why someone would choose one over the other (TG-1B vs TG-1 Express). I am going to be doing all of...

    New Elk M1G Install - Speakers

    Thanks for the replies. If I were to pick up a ELK-M1TWI, could I pick those up instead and use them for dual purpose? Essentially giving me the speakers I want + 2-way intercome/listen in capabilities in a single gang? Are the speakers loud enough? Also, I see that that the M1TWI has 3...

    New Elk M1G Install - Speakers

    My wife and I just plunked down the 5% required to get the builder going to start building our new house. I am in the process of putting together an order with Martin over at AO for the Elk system that will cover the house. I am all squared away except for when it comes to speakers. I have...
