The method you describe is the appropriate fix to disable checking for a dial tone on the Elk's phone terminals, but if I were you, I'd be wondering why it suddenly started complaining about that, assuming you have not made any recent programming changes.  Or did you, by chance, make any changes...

Did you request an M1Cloud account at any point?  The activity you describe is a handshake occurring with the M1Cloud service.  I just confirmed it with Elk tech support while discussing an unrelated issue.

  You can only do this with the temp/humidity sensors connected to the main OPII board,  The internal and remote sensors that are connected through the Omnistats....  cannot be combined/averaged (at least not in any way that I'm aware of) using automation blocks in PC Access, because PC Access...

Way to pay it forward pete.  Hope you have a good holiday/long weekend!

  The only humidity sensor in production (or the pipeline, AFAIK) is the extended range outdoor temp and humidity sensor, but it does not connect to or interact with the Omnistat directly - it connects to the main Omni board, and takes up 2 zones (one for temp, and 1 for humidity).  Having said...

Thanks for that pete, but unfortunately Juan cannot use an Omni*PRO* II chip.... to upgrade an Omni II (without the "Pro").  Different board entirely.

Welcome to the CocoonTech forums Juan!   I don't want to step on your toes at all pete, but I already had all of this typed up when I hit refresh and saw that you had responded.  I have the same answer for Juan, but with a little bit of... extra news.... bad news unfortunately   U29 is where the...

Hi Pete!  Thanks for your comment!  To answer your question, YES, absolutely, the Zigbee version of either Omnistat 2 model (RC-1000 or RC-2000) can also instead be used with a hard-wired serial connection, using the same 3-wire method (to zone 16, output 8 and any ground on the main Omni board)...

   You have read correctly.  Only need Cat5 if you're running OG 5.7 screens with the Touchscreen/Video hub, *and* want to view analog cameras (connected to the analog pass-throughs of said hub) within the default 5.7 user interface.   It's a real shame you don't have CAT5 to the keypad...

It seems to me that, the way you have these rules written, the ambient temp would only be checked at the moment the away flag gets turned on (presumably when you arm away).  To make this work, you could re-write both rules like this:   WHENEVER EVERY X MINUTES AND IF CURRENT TEMP IS LESS THAN XX...

Elkdroid is a good app - it has presented some similar challenges for me as well with our test systems here in the office. You might try uninstalling and re-installing from the market (or .apk file) if you have not done so already. I did that to fix a freezing issue with the ElkDroid app, and...

I am working with ckg on this issue over the phone, since we turned him on to the translator as a potential solution for his rather unique scenario. We just contacted HAI Support together on a conference call, but they were unable to provide any guidance, other than posturing that it must have...
