I thought that my M1XEP gave up the ghost, so I purchased a C1M1 as a replacement for the additional features.
In typical fashion, I did my research on the C1M1 after I ordered it.
After an adventure for the ages that led to my main house network switch being replaced, and a fun time with firmware updates on my M1G and M1XEP, I no have a working M1XEP and a dilemma.
I like the idea of the C1M1 cellular feature set, and the usb port programability. Hate the hoops that ELK is making us jump through onthis. So, trying to figure out if I keep it, or send it back.
1) Has anyone installed a C1M1 as a do it your selfer? How did it go?
2) Were you able to get the ethernet network functionality up and running on your own?
3) Did you find a dealer willing to just work with you to activate the device? I don't mind paying for it, I would just prefer to do it over the phone or over email.
4) dumb electrical question. For power, I have a + and - on the c1M1, and a + and - on the panel. Do I connect + on the C1M1 to + on the panel? - to -?
Thanks in advance!
