    Exactly the reason I decided to leave it alone for now. Thanks for the update though.

    Elk M1-XEP GMX E-mail Setup

    Nope, everything else is working including thermostats, remote acces, etc. I suspect there is no work around short of upgrading a firmware. Seem like too much hassle at this time, guarantee would have to spend a day working out the issues after the upgrade

    Elk M1-XEP GMX E-mail Setup

    So I finally found some time to work on the system.  When I tried to connect using network connection i get connection error "could not initialize secure connection". I am using ElkRP 2.0.12, ELK M1G firmware 5.2.4. Last login over two years ago when I needed to update email, with the same...

    Thanks guys.  Looks like I need to update the XEP in order to get it working again, doesn't look there is any other way. I will report back.

    Elk M1-XEP GMX E-mail Setup

    @drvnbysound, thank you for your help.  Port 25 is indeed blocked by Comcast. I have been using port 587 and mail server mail.gmx.com. Based on the email from GMX:   Port SMTP: 25 or 587 or 465 (STARTTLS, TLS or encryption)   does this mean that port 587 would only now work with STARTTLS, TLS or...

    Elk M1-XEP GMX E-mail Setup

    So I inquired if GMX made any changed to their system here is what I received in reply:   As communicated, we have performed an update in our system and what you may have been experiencing is a service interruption as the settings in your device or mail program were not adjusted. In order to...

    Elk M1-XEP GMX E-mail Setup

    I never updated the firmware, heard there are some issues with delayed response, etc.  I have been using GMX for the past several years, they must've changed something that is messing me up.   Anybody still successfully using GMX?   thx

    TR60 Thermostats Communication Failure

    I thought so too. For some reason I can't see it thru eKeypad. Do I need to enable it using ElkRP somehow? Thank you.

    TR60 Thermostats Communication Failure

    Good ideas.  I am hoping this was a one time glitch.  Does make me worry though, loosing a heat in the house is no joke. Would be good to know why it happen to begin with before I spend $300 on a new thermostat or do something else.

    TR60 Thermostats Communication Failure

    I have been using two TR60 integrated with ELK for about 6 months.  Today, for the first time, I had a "communication failure" error on one of the units.  It looks like communication between the control unit and wall unit failed. As soon as I did a power reset it started working again. Since...

    ELK central monitoring

    I was very discouraged by ADT performance. When they said "take over" it didn't occur to me that they are planning to rip everything out on my "outdated" system and install their junk. All I need is central station monitoring for the insurance purposes.  I already have SMS configured to alert me...

    ELK central monitoring

    So I tried all the usual suspects and was told by everyone except for ADT that they don't monitor third party security, ADT rep said that they could certainly do it.  Two techs showed up getting ready to rip out my key-pads, controls, etc so they could "take ownership" of the system.  They tried...
