Does anyone know how long the wiring harness length can be extended? I'd like to hook up the M1RB to my panel to convert the 8 voltage outputs to relays for use with sprinklers. I'd like to have the M1RB in the garage. I currently have an additional M1OVR+M1RB in the garage but have used up...

Is it possible to wire a sensor in parallel/series to two devices? I'd like an outside gate magnet sensor to trigger ELK as well as my CCTV. I'd rather not have to go through ELK, then waste an ELK relay output to trigger the CCTV.

I'm making the switch from X10 and bought the starter kit which includes the US1-40 dimmer switches and the US2-40 switch. The regular dimmer switch works fine. I can't seem to get the switch to control the local load. Out of the box, is the US2-40 top paddle supposed to control the local...

looks like Ebay is out- do you know anyone where else/anyone else that sells this module?

How can i set off a piezo type siren on a delay with a burgular alarm trigger? I don't want to make my entire family deaf when my wife accidentally triggers a false alarm - with a delay, maybe I can disarm it in time.. I'd still like the outdoor siren and strobe light to go off as usual. thanks..

I hooked up my elk to an existing alarm which had a bell - was wondering what the advantages of bell versus siren were? thanks

I have an ELK M1 Gold and want to hook up the thermostat. I was able to run cat5 to the upstair thermostat. I can not reasonably running a line to the downstair thermostat. What are the options for wireless downstairs? Also - how difficult is changing out the thermostat for an ELK-controlled...

Jim: please take lots of pictures! Are you installing it in a wall that's already dry-walled? Will you have access to the back of the wall? How far apart are your studs? thanks

Hi Mario: how thick is the display without the casing? I wanted to try your suggestion of mounting everything to a piece of plywood (touchpanel, frame) then mounting the plywood to the wall.. but wouldn't it stick out too much? I love how useful the touchpanel is and will probably buy 2 more...

Hi smarty: can you describe how to change a text's color depending on the state? IE: ZONE 1 - i want it to turn RED when zone1 is open as reported by the ELK. How would I use xsend/xreceive to do this? FOYER LIGHTS - How would i get those letters to turn yellow when the X10 is triggered...

sorry for the duplicate forum posts, but I love this plugin! I think this plugin deserves its own thread. I messed around with demo of CQC and Mainlobby but they were overkill for what I needed to do: make multiple touchpad and computer base control of the ELK. For my limited needs, it...

I think this plugin deserves its own thread. I messed around with demo of CQC and Mainlobby but they were overkill for what I needed to do: make multiple touchpad and computer base control of the ELK. For my limited needs, it did not make any sense to pay that much money. Then drewloch...

where can i purchase this powerline control system just for the purpose of doing the flashing scene? thanks
