I have a system in a building where I removed the Ethernet bridge due to a failure. It was no longer being used so i didn’t replace it. I also deleted the “telephones” in the elk rp that referred to it. It is still beeping incessantly the Ethernet error. How do I stop this other than just...

Ive had the elk m1 for years but never had a temperature sensor.  I recently put one on a freezer and I can see the temperature if i use the keypads to go to the automation menu and select the sensor.  I made a rule from the default instructions to display the temperature on the keypad "Whenever...

Im kinda shocked this hasnt come up yet with anyone else. The old touchscreens are aging at this point and are most likely needing replacement. It would have been easy for elk to make a recessed bracket for filling in the same hole with one of the new keypads. My touch screen is in my...

I am looking to replace my elk TS07 touchscreen due to recent failure. what have other people done to replace this touchscreen due to the fact that the unit is installed flush mount in the wall and will leave a large hole once removed? I was hoping that maybe there was an adapter kit to the...

sorry I need to be more specific.  These are commercial grade fixtures that get a 120v supply to power the fixture but use a 0-10v signal to control the dimming.  If you dont supply a signal they default to 100% but I would like to be able to dim them.

Is there an easy way to control some 0-10v fixtures that I have acquired.  I currently use an elk m1 with homeseer so thats what I would be looking to use to control it with.

To my knowledge  nothing has changed.  I did notice while using ek pro to activate and deactivate the lights that they do make noise as if they are communicating but just doesn't turn on or off.

Can anyone tell me why my m1 stopped being able to control a select few of my pub lights?  To be fair it appears that these select few light switches won't respond to links on other switches so this may not be an m1 issues.  Any help is much appreciated though!

I did see recently that Elk has a firmware for the serial expander specifically for the Carrier Infinity system.  Anyone know if they could write one for American Standard?

I posted this same thing to the Homeseer board for the M1 pluggin and haven't received any responses.  Anyone know if this is possible to do?

I've been using the Elk M1s for years now at multiple different properties.  I recently purchased Homeseer Pro and installed the Elk M1 plugin for it.  I'm very new to using homeseer and am trying to learn all the abilities and connecting all of my different equipment to it.  Does anyone know if...

Does anyone know if there is way for the M1 to communicate with the American Standard HVAC System/Thermostat?  My American Standard system has 3 wire communication between the furnace, thermostat, and heat pump.

I recently found a new line of displays by VU.  They come in 40", 55", and 65".  There were designed for conference rooms, video conferencing, etc. but they have the option of being a touch screen as well which throws them into the automation world.  I found the spec sheets on...

Ok great.  That was what I was looking at installing too.  I wanted a second opinion though. I actually wasn't trying to control the lights in the building at the moment just ones outside.  The ones inside are the ones causing the problem though.  Thanks.

I installed a few UPB switches in one of my office buildings and I couldnt get them to communicate until  I realized that the lights were causing a ton of noise which I could measure using upstart.  As soon as I turned them off the noise went away.  Is there a filter I can wire in the panel that...
