Thank You very much for You help. I still have two questions unanswered. Let's go with them one by one. 1. DIP switch on M1XSP is for assigning the number to a new RS232 port and it has to be done regardless what later I'm going to communicate through it with. There're also configuration...

I would very much like to see this pic. Thank You.

What about 8800 communication protocol? Is it the same as 8870?

AceCannon!   My question was NOT about hardware chain of communication. It's about how to program it. I modify the chain You've drawn:   ElkRp<->Automation<-> Thermostats<->Thermostat #X<->Elk M1G <-> M1XSP(ComPort#Y) <-> Aprilaire 8811 procotol adapter <-> Aprilaire 8811 distribution hub <->...

Hi there. My question is to Don Lamb. Do I get it right, that Thermostat I program and communicate to, has to have the same number as in Aprilaire (8870) protocol response to command "SN ?", and the number under which M1XSP is enrolled into ELK bus has nothing to do with it? If Thermostat in RP...

Reenrolled it to address 2. Working now! Thank You very much Gentlemen.

I think I got it. Mainboard input array should have Address 1 on Bus Type 2. All extensions on the same bus, 2 and up, right?

Connect  my test switch to Input 1 and 2 on mainboard, configured same way as before. Status sees it, it's OK. Smth wrong with M1XIN? Will try it on Address 2.

Removed all cards, only M1G and M1XIN left. Installed termination jumper on M1XIN. Still the same.

How three wires could be wired to three contacts incorrectly?

 I see my M1XIN in "Enroll/Update Control and devices" window on address 1, Bus type 2

Got connected to M1G. Go to status window to area 3. Turn my test switch on/off. Status says "violated", State - N/A

II tested my switch with a meter. Nothing is wrong. It switches "short cirquit" from NO to NC (in my case from zone 17 to zone18). Double check Zone settings - 16=Non-Alarm; 2=Normaly Open; Area 3;Fast loop response;Enable chime;
