     Reading a little bit more I see that my jumpers were set correctly and the hookup was correct. The issue was the keypad enrollment process and having 2 keypads with the same address. Thanks for the help!   

I'm a little confused. If you have 2 Keypads and you have them on branch #1 (homerun)each keypad should have a terminating jumper on it but should a jumper be moved on the data bus hub?  

I'm up and running! Thanx for the help!

I think I figured it out....I'll let you know!

So happy that I connected to the panel I was most likely mistaken thinking it was 4g. I didnt realize that it would default to your primary home wifi. I currently have port 2601 forwarded on my router but I believe other ports should be open as well. Must I have a DNS service? In the tabs it's...

Do you have any idea why I’m able to connect to the M1 through the app when I’m using my network but if I try to use the secured port and 4g I’m not able to connect?

Recently I installed the M1 and I did have some issue not related to the panel but with contacts to the windows so I was already a little unraveled. As far as hardware was concerned the M1XEP was recognized by the M1 and I was pretty happy. The retrofit data hub seemed to be working also so I...

All wiring was fine. Meter indicated was closed status even when the window was open. Checked the sensor contact and it was decided to just change one to see what will happen. As a result the contacts for all 12 windows had to be replaced.

Problem solved! Each one of the window sensors had to be replaced in the entire zone. All sensors were stuck in the closed position! I thank everyone for the comments and help!!! The meter does wonders!!!!

Long story short Mike I was working off the labeling that was left by the prior installer. You are 1000% right I should've been much more detailed with writing things out or even taking some pictures to make my life much easier. Valuable lesson learned!!!!!! Never again !!!!!!Thanks  

RAL I honestly thought that they were tied together but now I’m starting to think I missed something. I have tried hooking them up by placing 1 wire to the positive and 1to the common to make a zone but that didn’t work. Im at a loss right now and I’m annoyed with myself.

Mike I’m thinking that you are right. Is a resistor a must if one was there on the prior installation? Funny enough it’s just those 4 wires left. I thought it would be a simple thing, 1 zone 1 wire in the positive and one in the common and the same for the second zone. Something is just not...

RAL, stupid me I’m not sure when I disconnected the old panel if it had a resistor. I did read up and I was aware of M1 board using only 2.2 ohm resistors. Also I did program that zone to normally closed. Rushing to get rid of the old panel really cost me!!!!

I also must say for the record that there is a total of 12 windows for that particular zone.

please don’t laugh when I ask this question, How would it help and how do you use one?
