    ELKM1 Rule - Text to Keypad on Zone Change

    M1G is 5.3.30 M1KP2 is 1.0.20 I am only working on one keypad for this effort, though I do have another KP2 installed that I haven't been looking at. I will check to see if it is behaving the same. The odd thing is that I have essentially the same rule firing the same exact text to that...

    ELKM1 Rule - Text to Keypad on Zone Change

    So no idea what i did.. but one of my two garage doors now works with the rule. I have both rules set exactly the same, the only difference being the two different zones. The message output is the same, but one works, the other doesn't. I am not even dealing with them being open at the same...

    ELKM1 Rule - Text to Keypad on Zone Change

    Thanks. That at least confirms to me that I should be able to do it but just can't figure what is going on. I added the ^M because it mentioned needing that, however, I did confirm that the message can be displayed on the keypad if I change the "when" to trigger off of time versus zone status...

    ELKM1 Rule - Text to Keypad on Zone Change

    I am struggling with what I feel like should be a fairly simple rule so undoubtedly it is user error. Hopefully someone can spot my error in thinking here... I added sensors to my garage rollup doors and have the zones added as non-alarm type. They are working great. I have the F1 and F2...

    eKeyPad Versions

    I am finding the app stores descriptions to be extremely vague for all of the different versions of eKeyPad out there.. does anyone have a cheat sheet? For example, I see: eKeyPad ISY - ISY control (I own this one so I know what it does) eKeyPad Alarm - basic M1 control (my assumption...

    Help with DB1HR and Termination

    While not entirely confident.. I was finally able to make some progress and manually assign an address, manually enroll and get it into ElkRP. So fingers crossed...

    Help with DB1HR and Termination

    I am really struggling here and this seems like it shouldn't be this hard! I just have 2 keypads, each which will be home run to the ELK. I am working on a test bench right now and connected each keypad to the DB1HR on its own data bus. I have both keypads terminated with jumpers. I have...

    Vista20P Assistance - Accessing event log

    Got it, thank you. So even if I bought a used 6160 I might still not be able to view the event logs? I have debated replacing this system with an Elk for over 5 years but with the inflation over the past couple, I couldn't stomach the cost to do it. I wish I had pulled the trigger prior to...

    Vista20P Assistance - Accessing event log

    I just tried taking the voltage across terminals 1 and 2 and got nothing. I am wondering if my transformer went bad on me. Nevermind.. user error. Getting 16-18 there so seems ok. All voltages seem fine. I checked Transformer, Auxiliary and Battery. So it must not be the battery, but I...

    Vista20P Assistance - Accessing event log

    I am not 100% positive, no. I did enter the master code change routine (Master + 8 + 02 + New Master + New Master) and it double beeped like it took, so I was hoping that meant it was correct. Pics below. I know the FC code (we stopped monitoring years ago and this always shows now) so I...

    Vista20P Assistance - Accessing event log

    I am hoping someone can help me with my 20p system (very, very old!). It has started to beep in the middle of the night when the alarm is set, but by the time we can figure out what is beeping it clears. Sometimes the keypad will produce a long, loud beep, other times multiple beeps seemingly...

    EOL resistors?

    Thanks for the thread.  Every time I look at my builder installed Vista-20p board, I notice that the resistors are hanging from the connections at the board and thought that couldn't be right.  Good to see confirmation of it here!  Wonder why the installer even took the time to install them at...

    Total Home Surge Protector

    It definitely seems like the Eaton is more bang for the buck but the Leviton just looks more polished.  Since I could care less about the look, its a slam dunk for me on the Eaton units.

    Total Home Surge Protector

    That's a fair point, thanks.  I can't place a single unit in-between the panels, but I can definitely locate a single unit right next to each panel.  Sounds like I will go with the 2 separate ones then!     Any recommendation on the Leviton versus the Eaton?  It seems like they both perform...

    Total Home Surge Protector

    Thanks for the info.  I probably misspoke.  I have two main panels in the garage (attached to the house).  These panels are on the inside wall of the garage, and on the outside of the same wall is the meter.  So I am assuming I have the 2 main panels, each sourced to the meter situation.  I also...
