mikefamig said:I struggled with this problem and have been able to make it happen much less frequently. According to Elk tech support one cause for reboot is a glitch or intermittent connection in a power supply line to a zone expander or keypad or maybe other device in the system. I never determined which device but in my case I think that it is the zone expander in the detached garage. I checked and double-checked all of the screw terminals with no help and then it occurred to me that I have a number of RJ-45 plugs in the system in the DBH hub that supplies the garage among other things.
Long story short I found that removing the RJ-45 connectors and spraying the plug and sockets with electronic cleaner got rid of the re-boots for months at a time. Now I clean them up now and then and I pull the plugs in and out a few times to clean them up any time I have the system powered off for any reason. I rarely have re-boots any more.
Look for any questionable connections in the system, especially12v power supplies.

Thank you. This is certainly helpful. I don't have any RJ45 connectors, but instead I use the Elk-M1DBHR (retrofit kit). The run up to the second floor keypad is questionable. I might disconnect that first and see if it goes away. Also, the backlit main entry keypad also occasionally flickers a bit. I suppose that could be an issue as well. On top of all this, I have a long run out to the garage.
Is there an easy way to de-enroll a keypad?
