Thanks for this thread.  As a result of reading, I cancelled my C1M1 order and just got an upgraded BAT device from Alarm Relay.  I have used their service for some time but just realized they monitor the XEP too, which I have.  So why add an additional C1M1 for $300 (approx) when I can use my...

The last comment is the big difficulty.  The Partner system lets a third party pick up any existing conversation and we will miss that feature.  Only issue with our existing system is lack of caller id

The trouble with the DECT VOIP phones there is that you seem limited to 5 extensions.  Question on the Panasonic's as I have a KX-TA824 in my weekend house.  Is there an easy way to get two analog extensions (SLP, not PT phones) on the same outside call?     I would think my needs are rather...

I have my house wired for an old ATT Partner Plus system, with home run Cat 5 runs from my basement to all the rooms in the house.  We have about 12 cordless extensions, all regular single lien phones (analog), and it has worked well.  Would like to upgrade to something that can handle caller...

Thanks.  I do have my iphone working with eK Alarm.  I dont have ElkRMS so not an option.  I could try M1toGo but need to investigate Wine (I have not used it),  I use Elk RP through Parallels and that works fine, but my preference is always native mac functionality.  The web seemed like a good...

I have gotten Virtual Keypad to work on my local network and remotely (with forwarding of ports 80, 26 and 2601).  Only problem is that Virtual Keypad only works if I have user names and passwords blank on the Password Tab on the M1XEP tab of Elk RP software.  Whenever I put user name and...

thanks

I would like to have a signal on an interior door which is frequently open when people are home but should be closed when house is empty.  I have it set as an "Burglar Interior Follower" type 5, but I must bypass the zone regularly, even to set the alarm to "stay".  Ideally I would like this...

Thank you.  Worked perfectly.

I have my XEP set to a static IP address and all worked fine until we picked up Verizon FIOS and replaced our router.  New router operates on a different subnet, so while my router address is 192.168.1.1, the XEP is set to 192.168.0.40.  I am away from my house and I have no ability to...

Still getting my system set up, but I access through ethernet and use parallels on Mac

So you are sawing that my sensors might still function open/closed with the Caretaker, but the tamper switch may be dysfunctional.  I supposed that is possible,, but highly coincidental that all my sensors of the same vintage failed )faulty tamper switch) at the same place.  I ordered new ones...

My sensors are definitely crystal and not Saw.  And the lights do not flash on the M1XRFEG.  I suspect that they are a different bit rate (58 vs 63) and that is causing my issue.  Cannot verify as no one seems to know for sure, but my sensors were bought in 1996.  I spoke to Resolution Products...

I bought an ELK system with the intent to re-use my existing GE ITI sensors from my Caretaker Plus system.  What I have discovered is that many of my old sensors cannot be detected by the Elk receiver.  When I took off the cover of my sensors, I see the model number is the same on old and new...

I am trying to install an ELK M1 to replace an old Caretaker Plus.  The old GE-ITI Sensors still function with the Caretaker, but I cannot get the M1XRFEG to recognize them.  Looking at the M1XRFEG lights, they do not even blink when the old sensors are triggered.  My newer sensors function...
