    Honeywell 5800RP

    I've tried to install the 5800RP repeater but Im not sure it's working or in range. These are the settings I have it on: Wasn't sure which zone type to assign it to. I picked 03. I got the Tx ID from the circuit board: Not sure I did that right. How do I know the repeater is working...

    Smoke detector questions

    I'm guessing the answers vary depending on location, but does the Elk M1G, when used with the appropriate 2-wire or 4-wire smoke detectors, fit the definition of "hardwired smoke detectors"? Also, might as well ask... what about an Elk M1G with only Elk 2-way wireless smoke detectors? I don't...

    Elk 2-way wireless sensors with wired input

    Hi folks, I'm planning on installing a 2nd elk system in our 2nd home/cabin. Our first Elk was installed in our proper home during an extensive remodel about a decade ago; I'm sure I posted more often then! I integrated the Elk with our Vantage lighting and a mess of Axis smart cameras via a...

    Elk M1 Newb - Still

    Hey guys I am still wrapping my head around how to use this Elk M1. I swear the Omnipro was more intuitive and perhaps it was just using it for longer but I have multiple notices on my keypads I can't get to go away. When I look at the display is scrolls through a couple of messages and I have...

    Elk M1 2 way Mini Window Sensor Battery Change

    Hey guys - my wireless sensor felt really slow. So I went to change the battery and in the process, there was a clip that friction fits on the board to get to the other side of the battery. I think it is friction fit - if not mine is defective but I can't for the life of me figure out HOW to...

    GRI2600 in a series on an Elk M1

    Hey guys, been a while! I have moved to the Elk M1 Gold for my new to me home. I installed some GRI2600's in some bathrooms I remodeled. I have 2 GRI2600 (NC) in my one bathroom in a series. It seems to work fine 99% of the time. The sensors are wired back to an expansion module connected...

    Problems enrolling ELK-M1XRFEG on my ELK M1

    I recently disconnected an M1XIN that was no longer needed from my M1. I replaced the jumper on the data bus hub, removed the expander from the system, and hit the 'enroll' button on the software to update everything. Weirdly the ELK-M1XRFEG is not registering on the system. It has power, but...

    Interlogix Door Sensor (TX-1012-01-1) compatible w/ Elk

    I have an Interlogic door sensor (GE part # 60-688-95) that I cannot enroll in the Elk. I have other GE (either CADDX or Interlogic) sensors that have been going great and easy to setup. I have an M1XRF2G and it states this sensor should work. On the side there is what I think is the TX ID...

    Moving from HAI OmniStat to Aprilaire 8800 on Elk M1

    Background: 15 years ago we got 9 HAI OmniStat (1st-gen) thermostats, connected to an OmniPro II controller. The OmniPro II has since been replaced by an Elk M1. The thermostats have been slowly dying one by one (failing to turn the heating/cooling on and off correctly) and now that we are down...

    Question about NC vs NO door sensor

    The GRI RB-02 roller ball sensor can be be bought in a NC configuration, which I always thought was best for entry/exit doors, windows, etc. The problem is that they seem to be in very short supply, e.g., 6 to 7 week lead time. GRI also manufactures a DS-01T roller ball sensor (with wire...
