Does anyone know if the GE 60-459-319.5 glass break detectors work with the Elk M1 and the M1XRF2G wireless receiver? Also...can someone explain the single mode technology (vs dual mode I guess) and what the disadvantage would be? Thanks.

I have 3 AP750-ID motion sensors that are addressable for use the Pinpoint interface system. Anyone have any idea if these can be used any possible way with the Elk M1? Thanks.

I am using RP2 v2.0.6 M1G = 5.2.2 M1XRF2G = 1.0.26 M1XEP = 1.3.10 I am in the process of setting up a new M1G. I have the M1XRF2G wireless receiver set to data bus address 5 and enrolled. I did this because I figured that would correspond to Zone 65 and I could later add input expanders to...

Are the ones you are using the duel tech models? I have seen that Rokonet does have Duel tech models...but some are only PIR. I would think the PIR and Radar would offer better immunity to false alarms....but I have no basis for that other than my reading, since I am new to all this. However...

That makes sense...I was thinking about using them for occupancy sensors but I am not sure if you can disable the PIR portion of it or not. Even without that, they might work OK for that in smaller areas maybe...like a bedroom or bathroom. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks Russ. I think I will pickup a couple and try them out. Do you have any experience with the RCR-REX-W models? I saw some of those and liked the look. They are called "request to exit" as I assuming they are really designed for door exits....but I was wondering if they would work as...

I thought I read a topic on here about the GE RCR-PET motion detectors...or at least someone mentioned it, but I can't find it. Does anyone have any experience with these? Are they a good choice for wired motion detection (both inside and/or outside)? Thanks.

Thanks....I have emailed him and will see what happens. I asked after the sale about other Elk stuff and he said he only had it because he picked it up in a liquidation sale as a packaged unit...but I will see what he says. The guy was a good seller, fast shipment, as advertised, etc. It was...

I will look into that...could save me quite a bit in cost based on how my windows pair up. I will have to find a way to mount the 650 and then run the wires. Based on the cost of these wireless sensors, I may end up going wired in many locations anyway...a lot more work, but the cost...

Ebay purchase...so getting a fresh battery is out. If it doesn't come around, I will pick up a new one. I have been reading some of the posts on battery backup and adding additional power (for network, router, etc.) and I may do something like that as well. My home network has grown to 5...

Is the date code the number stamped on the top? It says: PK070929 Other than that, I don't see any other numbers on it. Yes, it is the 8ah. Thanks for the reply...

I just purchased an M1G setup and was wondering how long I would expect it to take to charge the battery. I have had it plugged in for 2 days and I am still getting "Low Battery" alert. I am getting 13.1v out of the leads from the M1 and when I disconnect the battery and test the battery...

I'm very new at this...so I appreciate any suggestions at all. This sounds great...but I am not sure that I understand exactly...for example: Most of my windows are in pairs (left and right) so you are saying buy an NX-650 and then buy two wired sensors (when you say small magnetic reeds I...

Yea, I am worried about the size...but I think I have the room to put it in there going up into the header. These windows are tall crankout style (over 4 feet high) and I am really stuck on what to put on them. Getting one of these open when it is locked shut would not be easy anyway (two...

Anyone have any experience with the 60-741-95 recessed door/window sensors used with the M1XRF2G on the M1G? I am thinking about using these for doors and crank-out style windows. Thanks.
