I dont see it on Automated Outlet's website.  link?

  So your're saying that the C1M1 IS available (double negative)?  where exactly?  

Anyone know how much the C1M1 Elk dual-path communicator is going to be going for?  It is to be released this month, 8/2016.   http://www.elkproducts.com/c1m1-dual-path-communicator Would that be the way to go?   If one goes the IP Datatel route, does that mean the $48 annual cost above requires...

I only have ethernet connection (no phone line in house) to CS currently and want to add redundancy with an uplink.  I do have an Uplink 2500 but I hear it will be phased out by CSs if not already? I just read up a little on the C1M1 Elk communicator.  Should I go for that or get a Uplink 4500...

Yes, I am running the smokes and CO off the panel. Ok, I will go with 2 - 1280s. Thx.

Im thinking I may have to go with a 1280 battery because of the current draw. edit: scratch that, i already have a 1280, i think with that additional 1208 for the Uplink 2500 and its power supply, i should be ok for a 4 hr standby.

thx, ill try replacing it and see if that helps. i have it mounted on a wall, not a ceiling, dont know if that matters.

I have the following for my Elk M1G with hardwired smokes and COs. At the time I was in the middle of gutting/re-framing the house, I totally overlooked hard wiring for the window sensors or for glass break sensors. So now I want to add a few GE NX-488 glass break sensors and also an Uplink...

distortion = cant understand any voice output unless its at or below level "2" it may be a bad speaker. its the normal one that comes with the sys4s M1G kit.

On my Elk M1G speaker when I set "G14-G18" global settings, the only setting where the voice and alarm are not distorted is setting "2", anything higher the output is extremely distorted. I have the standard speaker that comes with SYS4S. Is it just a bad speaker? Or is it not supposed to be...

i dont have my uplink 2500 yet. but when i get it hooked up and setup, they will charge $45 to set that up, vs $35 that i paid now (also $12/month additional because its a cell service.)

Setup was quite easy, the Alarm Relay tech was a little impatient with me, but I got through it ok.

I have an appt with AlarmRelay to setup my M1 and M1XEP. Anything I should be doing ahead of time? I did log into my router to make sure the M1XEP was connecting, I see the MAC address and an IP assigned to it. I haven't set up the DynDNS.com yet or forwarded the ports (2601, 21, 26, 80) yet...

Work2Play, i guess i was wrong. I misunderstood Wuench. He/she was commenting on how to keep the update client active, but I thought the comment was about how the ISP re-issues IP based on cycling of modem or router. But I still dont understand under what criteria the IP gets updated, a certain...

The modem would have to cycle for a reissuance of a new ip, not the router.
