Does anyone else have daylight savings issues? My Elk M1 changed time on March 8 even though the configuration states the time change should not happen until this Sunday. I had to add a rule within HomeSeer to re-sync the time with my HomeSeer system so it stays accurate. Any suggestions on...

I recently signed up for AlarmRelay monitoring though my Elk M1XEP module. I have received several calls from AlarmRelay stating my Alarm has lost COM, but I don't know what that means. In my logs, I show several Elk M1 ETHERNET TROUBLE events. However, those events are nowhere near the times...

I just hooked up an HAI RC-2000. The response from the ELk M1 indicates the humidity reading is 00 as shown here: 13TR01100696285000000 Does the HAI RC-2000 support humidity via the Elk M1? I tried calling Elk technical support and they essentially told me to pound sand. Regards, Ultrajones

I have an EDS OW-SERVER connected to a HobbyBoards Barometer. The OW-Server detects the device, but the readings certainly don't look like the current atmospheric pressure (currently about 30.03 according to WeatherBug). Can any of the values below be used to calculate the actual atmospheric...

Last week my neighbor across the street experienced an attempted burglary. The home owner heard several loud banging noises coming from her basement, so she called 911. While on the phone with 911, she yelled down into the basement and apparently startled the 2 thieves. As they were running...

I recently installed a Brultech ECM-1240. While testing the basic installation, I could see an increase of 100 watts on CH 1 when I turned on a lamp connected to the first phase. However, when turning on a lamp on other phase, I don't see an increase or decrease in watts registered on CH 1...

Hello All. Can I hook an ELK-SS30 siren directly to output 2 on my Elk M1 Gold? The specs show the ELK-SS30 siren draws 1.1 amps at 13.8vdc, but the Ek M1 ouput 2 is limited to 1 amp. If I can connect it, how is it wired? There are 3 wires on the siren, but only 2 connection for output 2. Do...

I power reset my Elk M1 Gold to clear a system trouble by turning off the power swtich, counting to 30, then turning the power switch back on. This action caused all my Insteon addresses to reset back to 00.00.00. This is the third time this has happened to me. Has anyone else experienced...

I have a 300 Watt Malibu outdoor low voltage lighting kit and wondered if I could hook it up to my Elk M1. I noticed it has a 3rd terminal for a Photo Control and wondered if the Elk could control it via a relay. Here is the manual for the Low Voltate Photo Contol...

I purchased the Elk M1XEP in order to send email notifications for certain events that occur within my home. I have found that it is not a reliable means of sending notifications. There is not queueing, retry or logging mechanism so if the email fails (for whatever reason), you'll never know...
