    Z wave frustrations with Yale lock and Leviton VRC0P

    I was able to get it working (although I can not explain the procedure). I was hoping to write up a how-to procedure but there were too many false starts and things that just didn't make sense. It was important to un-enroll the lock and then re-enroll. The whole primary/secondary scheme of the...

    Z wave frustrations with Yale lock and Leviton VRC0P

    I have a Yale lock, VRC0P, and the Leviton Vizia RF+ USB stick for programming. It was working fine but somehow I have lost functionality. I don’t know what happened so I’m trying to go back to square 1.   Unfortunately, this has led to endless hours of frustration with the Leviton Installer...

    Through wall conduit

    Thanks guys, I've had this temp "solution" using an unused sump pump PVC - been holding off doing it right as I knew some renovations were coming up. I'm at that point now and will look and running some conduit/boxes around the perimeter with 2 or 3 penetrations.

    Backyard security

    While it's only been a couple of months, I've had success with motion detectors under an eave. If it trips I just have the Elk say "motion detected" so they know....   While not exactly related to your scenario, I'm much more interested in preventing an "event" rather than catching someone...

    Adding wireless to M1G

    Thanks, that's quite a list! I had no idea as the "regular" vendors I use don't list most of these.    The asset protection module looks like it might make a good mailbox sensor.    Am I correct the range of Honeywell is not quite as good as GE but good enough for most residential applications?

    Adding wireless to M1G

    Looking at adding the GE or Honeywell. Primarily the small 0.75 dia. window/door magnetic contacts as well as PIR.   I've read that Honeywell has more product selection. Can someone tell me what other devices are available (other than visible door & window sensors? I won't be using those.  ...

    Hi guys, I wanted to introduce myself and possibly get some feedback to my system reconfiguration. I’ve been reading a lot of the message threads as part of my research and I have to say the camaraderie among pros and DIY types is very refreshing. There are many people I am appreciative...
