Greetings;
I'm planning a new home and since I'm familiar with the Elk M1 Gold and several of you have recommended that this is still be best unit around, I want to use this as the alarm system and have it talk to my home automation as well. Automation will happen via Z-Wave+.
While researching a cheaper way of controlling lights than buying a separate Z-wave module for every circuit (the idea being one Zwave Rx/TX controlling several relays), I ran across the the following products:
https://numato.com/product/8-channel-ethernet-solid-state-relay-module An ethernet controlled relay bank and Analog/Digital IO bank! They make the same thing for USB and digital control as well.
Now, my question: Can I program the M1G in such way that it sends a telnet signal through the M1EXP to this device? Or maybe even reads some of those inputs? Would be cool, no?
Thanks on advance for your help!
Cheers.
