Thank you. Sorry. I should have clarified. The request for Relay49 On is coming from another automation platform (Control4). The issue I'm having is that it's sending latching command, even though in C4 it looks like just a momentary signal (1000ms). So now, I need something in ELK to limit...

How do I program a simple, 1-second delay? I have several relays controlling garage doors. I need to program: When Relay49 is On, wait/pause/delay 1-second, then, turn Relay49 Off.

Thanks for the M1ToGo tip.  I just downloaded it and connected without issues. Question thought: How do I change areas? I have my outputs in Automation area (8th partition) and all I can see is Main House (1st partition).  Yes, I do miss HAI.

  For me and my market, I think Control4 will be that solution. I will marry C4 to any of the existing HAI, Vista, GE or DSC alarm panels and have complete solution. 

After being a satisfied dealer for over a decade, I am now looking at other automation products that are more current than OPII. I tried Total Control by URC, and while a great A/V controller, they are by no means an automation product carrier.

  The new Omnitouch was rushed to market when old supplier ran out of parts and couldn't/wouldn't make more. The new Omnitouch keeps locking up, is slow to bring up lights (forces you to setup rooms), and I still can't display 90% of cameras on the market today.   As for what I'm waiting for --...

  I know, right? I occasionally get somethings from them, but I guess not the bulletins. I did get this one from my distributor.   Gosh, I miss HAI.  They were far from perfect, but they had a forum, a way to contact some of their people and were coming out with relevant products. I don't think...

I've been using Gmail and it's still working. I got text that my trees are being watered just now.

  I guess the obvious thing to do would be to swap the two units and see if issue moves with the unit or stays with the jobsite. That will tell you if it's the board or some other factor. That would determine next steps.

I never had issues with mine, using GMail.

Thanks for the advice. As for the question: did you see it in the movie as well? :-) And no, properly designed system would only affect a single channel. And with remote reboot, that could be corrected, provided the instigator didn't leave it down.  I've shorted the wires here and there...

Thank you for the response, but I think you're missing the point. Also, do you have any experience in this specific business field that you're willing to share?

  Do you have any specific titles or URLs?

Hey, a friend of mine is applying for a business operating license in a lottery type awarded environment, where the state requires full blown security system with access control, CCTV, monitoring, etc.  Problem is that they (state agency) will not give him specifics, beyond what I'm posting...

  Oh, she's coming. Was supposed to be previewed at CEDIA. Imagine my disappointment when I finally wheeled (chair) my butt over to the booth and didn't see the new board.   We most likely won't see it for Christmas, but CES is not too far out and MFGs love to announce new releases around or at...
