    Door Contacts

    I am having a lot of problems with my ELK. 1. The wireless sensor NX454 don't seem to be picked up by elk. My key fob works fine. What could be wrong. I can see the lights blink on the GE receiver but nothing happens on the elk. 2. Ever since I upgraded my ELKRP I cannot save my account. It...

    Martin, I had terrible luck with the 458s. I will try the 454s but don't be shocked if I bring them back on my next trip. So if the ELK is disarmed and I opent he door the zone should become violated no matter how many times I open it in a minute? Please confirm for 454s. As always thanks for...

    Door Contacts

    HMMM...I am lost. I guess I need to see what is happening as the distance is clear line of sight. Spanky, What about the data from 8 to 4. Does that change the situation. regards,

    Door Contacts

    I checked the RP also and it is the same. I am sure of doing that. These days I am back in the US so really can't test much but need to get some contact and take them with me hence so many questions. regards,

    Door Contacts

    Thanks for keeping this one alive. Did you enroll the sensor by going in the learn mode or type in the issue no (unique sensor number) in elkrp. I typed it in and like I said it worked with the same results that I have had. I do agree with you that it does send the signal as I see the lights...

    Following is the text from the installation paper of the nx-458. "We recommend you leave the sensor undisturbed, in the closed or non-alarm condition, for 5 minutes before testing it. Waiting guarantees accurate test results because the sensor has enough time to turn off its built-in...

    Door Contacts

    My experience is that I can see the signal reach the receiver as I can see the light blink. This is what happened for me. Open the door and it announces "Front door open" I close the door and the zone becomes unviolated. If I open the door again in the next 20 secinds then the zone stays the...

    Door Contacts

    454 would be ideal but isn't that crystal technology and uses the same tech as the pirs??? Does it transmit every time which is what the 458 did but elk would not register them. I could see the ligh blink. I think that it send less signals than it would under normal conditions. EDIT: Just...

    Door Contacts

    I bought a couple NX-450 and am happy with these except for the size which the head office does not really like. SO I went ahead and bought NX-458. Wifey loved them but it really doe snot work well as an occupancy sensor as to save battery it transmits every 4 mintues or something so if someone...

    DSL Setup

    I am not sure that it is a router/modem as I have seen the dsl modem/router combination that providers give out here. This is a modem and only has one rj45 at the back. Also, in the modem setup I can see the ip address that is not 192.X.X.X Are all modems the same or each provider has its...
