I see that the ELK-7TS connects via WiFi. I wonder what the implications of that are when installing a new system. I have always used the traditional keypads to initially configure a M1 system, then added a M1XEP and used ElkRP2 for the rest of the configuration. With the 7TS, how would you do...

You can do a great deal of the programming via the M1XEP and RP software. I suspect there may be a few things you can not do via M1XEP, but I can't think of anything right now....I prefer enrolling wireless devices via the keypad, since that way I don't have to make sure I type in the wireless...

I've installed several Elk 6051 Wireless CO detectors in my M1 Gold system. I've set the Supervision type to "1 Normal Supervision", Zone Definition to "17 carbon monoxide", and Zone type to "0 EOL hardwire/wireless". I think these are all correct, but wanted to see if others agree. Unlike all...

I am another user for whom myKeypad Pro has stopped working with lollipop. I can conform that the developer is not responding to emails, I have tried repeatedly.   I am running M1Xep firmware 2.0.30, and connecting via the secure port on M1XEP. I purchased M1 touch and it is working well.

Thanks for the pointer.   Because I already own an ISY994, I ended up configuring it to send the http command. This is straightforward to do, but does require the Network Module ($49). To get elk to "trigger" the ISY based on arm/disarm states, there are at least a couple of ways to do it: 1)...

Thanks for the update. I was able to confirm that changing the IP address value to contain just the numeric IP did cause ELK to send the text string to the desired target IP, but it was a TCP message by itself that wireshark labeled "TCP segment of a reassembled PDU". The TCP payload did contain...

Any luck with getting m1xep to send out the http request?   I am getting a similiar result. I have the text string defined in Elk that I want, which in my case is 00AP1admin?profile=1^M^J Using the M1XEP Diagnostic tool, I see the string in the trace window when I cause the Elk to be triggered...

I want the Heat EEC setting to work as advertised, which means if the rate of heat increase is < the EEC setting, and the other criteria(Aux Heat Differential and Start Delay) are met, 2nd stage heat turns on. I do not want to control the 2nd stage heat based solely on Aux Heat Differential and...

  There are four settings that are grouped under the heading of "EEC Settings" in the installation manual. Heat EEC and Cool EEC are rate-of-temperature change settings, Aux Heat Differential is a difference between current temperature and heat set point temperature, and Start Delay is minimum...

Further clarifications that might someone else out:   When the RC1000 has system type set to heat pump, hold is on, and mode is heat, the EEC Aux Heat Differential is in fact overridden. Per the HAI documentation, if the heat set point is >= 1 degree over the current temperature, 1st stage heat...

Posting a follow-up message, as this may help someone else. It turned out that both thermostats were in fact not functioning correctly, as neither one would ever turn on the second stage heat, unless the thermostat was placed in emergency heat mode. It took quite a few rounds with HAI tech...

I have two HAI Omnistat RC1000 thermostats that are both just under 1 year old, and both are behaving as follows: system type is set to heat pump (NOT dual fuel) stage settings are 2 stage heat and 1 stage cool Hold is set to on (defeats EEC settings) Mode is set to heat When I raise the heat...

I was able to get someone to go by the house, and all seemed ok, so it must have been a false alarm. There were no other incidents of motion detectors going off in the log.

I was notified via email that the Burglar alarm went off on my Elk EZ8 last evening at 8:44pm. Here are the log messages: 7 Tue 10/23/2012 20:44 1 1146 = RESTORE BURGLAR ZONE Mud Room dn (Zn 1) 8 Tue 10/23/2012 20:44 1 1003 = BURGLAR ALARM, ANY AREA Mud Room dn (Zn 1)...

I have contacted the developer, and asked him to explain what the intended function of the blue and red arrow functions is. He initially chose to not answer the question directly, rather he referred me to the M1 ASCII Protocol reference. In a follow up email he stated the following: "It is our...
