    problem adding M1KP

    I finally got time to work on this again this evening. I measured the resistance across A and B like you suggested and it is 44,000 ohms. I also measured across each leg of the rs485 bus with the lines unhooked at the M1 and got about 127 ohm on both legs. When both were hooked hooked up (and...

    problem adding M1KP

    Elk tech support gave me the same suggestion as DELInstallations did. Doing it that way, the keypad worked. But I am still confused and worried that I'll have trouble with it. To get the M1KP to stay working, I had to rewire so that it was the device "closest" to the M1 Gold panel...

    problem adding M1KP

    Two legs to the bus - one has one keypad that has the termination jumper set. The other has two keypads with the second one in the chain having the jumper set. I put this new one at the end, so I removed the jumper from the second one and put it on my "new" one (which would be the third and...

    problem adding M1KP

    No -- the only thing I have on the bus are the existing 3 keypads. The only other two extras that I have are the XEP and an M1RB, but of course these are not bus devices.

    problem adding M1KP

    Another thing I tried was to set the new keypad to address 4 and put it in the same location with the same jumper setting (end of line resistor jumper on) as the original keypad with address 4. Ran Enroll again and it doesn't see a keypad at 4 any longer.

    problem adding M1KP

    Please Help! I am trying to add an M1KP to my system and am having trouble enrolling it. I have three existing keypads and am trying to add a fourth. My existing keypads are currently addressed 1, 3, and 4. I'm trying to add this one using address 2. (I have tried 5 and 6 as well). The...

    Elk M1-Gold Lighting interface

    Thank you for the replies... another question: Do I need the ISY 99i, or can I communicate directly with the 2413S via an ELK-MIXSP serial expander?

    Elk M1-Gold Lighting interface

    I have an Elk M1Gold system and I'm looking to add lighting control. I've read lots of posts and I am thinking Insteon might be the best solution for me but I'm not sure. Right now, I only want to control 3 or 4 light switches, but in the future might want to do more. Also in the future I...
