    Enhancing M1G rules with a computer

    That in my opinion (and I voiced it to ELK) has been a big hole in their system. They have delved into Home Automation yet they say that the alarm system is their main focus. Silly, since the future has always been in the automation part. The fact that there is no (IF) (AND) (OR) statements...

    Easier to program rules (M1 Gold vs OPII)?

    Hello, A big difference is that the HAI offers an "IF" in their statement where the M1 does not.'' Basic programming 101 should contain IF (this) THEN (that) ELSE or IF (this AND that > that and this THEN that ELSE = that or (we can use the OR as well to really create a professional...

    Rules Help - motion sensor to turn lights off after x

    Hi, That was a great help..... For now I have the one room with 4 sets of lights with 3-ways on each and combined as an ALL Room scene. It is easy to activate the ALL for the Off. Is there a way to write it so if any of the lights are on, it would ignore the output so no counting would start...

    Rules Help - motion sensor to turn lights off after x

    New ELK M1XSP and M1XEP Software Upgrades

    Hi, The Snd/Rcv is grayed out. Is there a way to connect other than with the usb/RS232? How about through the phone jack just below it? All the RS232 connectors I have are female which makes perfect sense since "systems" like computers all have male connectors on them, so it is not logical...

    New ELK M1XSP and M1XEP Software Upgrades
