The quality of the On-Q intercom speakers is not that great, so I'm not too sure you would really want to use them for music distribution. I am told by On-Q that they are getting ready to release an audio input device to work with the intercom system. The module is intended as a PA input, but...

That's funny, I was born and raised in So. Cal and moved up north, leaving a large part of my family still in So. Cal. Tell your family in Modesto that you can recommend a good alarm company for them. :-) George Vander Dussen Armor Clad Security Modesto, California

Long Beach is about a 5.5 hour drive for me. My sales manager and I will be there for three days. We're definitely going to the EHX party Thursday night. I hope to run into some of you. Teetotallers can donate their drink tickets to me. :-) George Vander Dussen Armor Clad Security Modesto...

My company recently installed ALC lighting in a 6,000 sq. ft. house. Here's some tips we learned from that experience. First, call On-Q and make sure you FULLY understand the wiring schematic and the switch capacity of each branch. They make some very nice branch hubs that ease the wiring in...

Is there any organized gathering of Cocooners happening next week in Long Beach? If so, mind if I drop in? Throw me a bone, here. I need the info!

Why do you need your speaker hooked up to output 1 along with the Greyfox intercom? If possible, disconnect the speaker and just use the intercom. The intercom speakers should do just fine even though you have to crank the Elk's output volume. If you're trying to get a louder siren effect...

Does anyone have any experience creating or installing a "hi-tech" answering machine for the home? I'd like to use my Elk M1G, if possible, to integrate with an answering machine. Some features I'd like to have: 1. The Elk can announce if new messages are ready for playbeack when the system...

Take of good look at Russound's ComPoint intercom. It will integrate nicely with your CAM.

I am using the On-Q/Greyfox inQuire Cat-5 based intercom system described in the first post of this thread.

Alright, I set aside the things I should be doing today to do the one thing I've wanted to do forseveral weeks now and voila!, I now have my Elk M1G passing voice from Output 1 through my On-Q intercom system. I wired it just as described in my previous post. I ran the Brown wire from the...

How near is "near"?

Has anyone sucessfully made their Elk M1Gold control a Russound multi-room controller? I'm not too savvy on the Rnet protocol and am not sure whether the M1XSP can pass HEX to my Russound CAA66 controller. Can anyone offer any help or advice?

Okay guys, sorry for the long absence; been busy with CUSTOMER'S projects and haven't had time for my own. The On-Q pinouts are listed at the end of this message. Although I still haven't attempted to finalize this project, I believe the answer will be to use a speaker-level to line-level...

I'm trying to get an M1G to speak (from Output 1) through an On-Q/Greyfox inQuire Cat-5 based intercom system. The beauty of this would be that the voice prompts emitted from the M1G would be distributed nicely throughout the house via the existing intercom system. I realize I can add external...
