Thanks to everyone for the replies. Nice to know I have a place to go when I start instaling. One more question, for now anyway. What's the benefit to motion sensors if I'm installing contacts on all entry points? Is it to cover an intruder breaking the glass and crawling through without opening...

Thanks for the info. I'll make sure to follow your advice on testing. This is my first system I've installed, and I'm pretty sure I'm going with the ELKM1G. That being said are all systems normally closed? I couldn't find the info for ELK and I'm looking at these window contacts...

Hi guys, Quick question on window contacts. I have a small kitchen cove with three double sash windows. So I'll have 6 window contacts that I want all in the same zone. Is it ok to wire 6 contacts in series? Out of curiosity, what is the limit when wiring in series? Thanks, Rich
