    Need Help w/Water Sensor Connection to Sump Pump Backup

    Thank you both very much for your replies/help.   I've left the settings as they are...and it sort of works.   The system is 2 pumps that come pre-installed together, to a PVC pipe.  Each pump has 2 floats (main float, and a backup).   The system also has a test/silence button on the unit where...

    Need Help w/Water Sensor Connection to Sump Pump Backup

    Thanks DELInstallations.   Can you please clarify that for me a bit though?  (still very new at all this)   Are you saying the 5816 cannot be used with the sump setup to alert me (via the terminals in the picture above)?  If that is the case...how then best would I be able to connect my sump...

    Need Help w/Water Sensor Connection to Sump Pump Backup

    I've got 2 sump pits in my basement.  One of which contains a pump and a back-up pump/battery back-up, while the other has just one pump.   I've been meaning to install a back-up pump + battery on the pit that has just one pump, and finally got around to it.   I've installed the Basement...

    Port Forwarding (ISY+M1+Foscam) w/Xfinity X1 Issues

    I had my ISY-994i, Elk M1, and Foscam 9821W port forwarded and working beautifully with my normal Comcast service + my own wifi router.   I've upgraded to X1,  and they've installed an all-in-one modem/wifi router/phone system, and I'm now having issues.  Initially I believed it was due to this...

    Make Elk-73 Speaker Beep Upon Entering Home? (but not KP2)

      Thanks for that tip DELInstallations.   Ok...I was sort of wrong with what I was asking for/explaining earlier.   That is...I have an ELK SP12 behind the iPad (not a 73 as stated earlier).  However, I do also have an Elk-73 right by the front door, and if that was do do the beeping, that would...

    Multiple Questions Regarding eKeypad

    Here's the response I got from eKeypad:   Note: *I also asked them about copying icons from the main screen, to other screens.  The app always crashed when I tried to do that.  Also, you can use eKeypad on multiple devices.  I just had one of my devices setup wrong, so that was user error.      ...

    Make Elk-73 Speaker Beep Upon Entering Home? (but not KP2)

    Thanks. I guess my problem isn't getting the physical KP2 keypad to make sounds...it's that I want the KP2 muted, but have the sounds it would make (such as a countdown timer) play through the Elk-73 speaker that I have mounted behind the iPad. The KP2 is installed in my security panel can...

    Make Elk-73 Speaker Beep Upon Entering Home? (but not KP2)

    I've got an iPad mounted at my front door (running eKeypad), along with an Elk-73 speaker mounted behind it in the wall.   Since my KP2 keypad is mounted inside the M1 cabinet, I've got that volume turned off (I dont want to give away the position of my security system by having the KP2 beeping)...

    Multiple Questions Regarding eKeypad

    Rather than email eKeypad over and over, or post multiple threads, I've been collecting some questions, and decided to post them all here in one thread, for others' benefit as well.   Can someone from eKeypad (or anyone on this forum who knows the answers), answer the below questions?   - Can...

    KHouse Elk M1 Install (Questions and Help For A Rookie)

    Thank you RAL.   To follow-up regarding the phone line.  Through trial and error I was able to determine I can arm/disarm, or arm and set off the alarm (open a door for example), and all that with no problem.  The phone line error went away when I plugged in the phone line to the M1.  The only...

    KHouse Elk M1 Install (Questions and Help For A Rookie)

    Regarding enrolling the glassbreak sensors:   What are the proper settings?    Definition I've chosen 04 = Burglar Perimeter Instant (based on searching another thread on this forum) I've left it Type 0 = EOL Hardwire/Wireless (Should this be normally closed, normally open, etc?)  Can someone...

    KHouse Elk M1 Install (Questions and Help For A Rookie)

    System is up, able to arm/disarm/be activated by a door opening, etc.  I've got just 3 of the many sensors installed, so will be spending much of tomorrow doing the remainder.   Another question on the phone though:  The alarm panel works fine sometimes, shows no errors,etc...but sometimes, I...
