I have attached photos to illustrate the problem. Viewed from the front it is impossible to make out most characters on the display. Viewed from the side, it is possible to read the display, though with some difficulty.

I was able to adjust backlight brightness. The problem is the LCD contrast, which when set too high makes it nearly impossible to read the display.

I have an M1KP keypad with a display that can only be read from an extreme angle. Viewed from any normal angle most of the display appears black. Most devices with LCD displays allow contrast to be adjusted through menus or in the worst case by using a screwdriver to adjust a pot on the...

Answering my own question: You need to use the -crlf option in openssl I now have this working through openssl as well as within a java app I am developing.

Overall objective is to capture the high and low temperatures of the day. I'm using counters and the 40 degree offset is the quirk I am reporting. If the keypad temp is currently 70 degrees and is saved to a counter, the counter value goes to 110. So if you want to later display the high...

I am having trouble with the username/password part. If I configure the M1XEP with no usernames and passwords, I can do the SSL connection and enter commands as described in the RS232 protocol. All appears to work as documented. But if I have a username and password defined, the Elk sends...

I need help displaying the high and low values for temperature as measured at a ELK-M1KP keypad. I have logic that does this very reliably for zone temperatures measured with ELK-M1ZTS sensors but the keypad temperatures have been very quirky: 1) If the temperature is saved to a counter, the...

Thanks. The force arm option works great.

Thanks for the reply. All of my interior zones are magnetic switches on closet and cabinet doors. I have cats and long ago gave up on motion sensors due to the difficulty of adjusting them such that I can be guaranteed that a cat wont set them off. I might be remembering this incorrectly...

I just installed a new Elk M1 but it refuses to arm in 'Stay' mode unless all interior zones (zone type 4) as well as exterior zones are secure. Is there any way to configure the alarm to allow arming in stay mode without running around the house to close all closet doors or doing a system...
