We had a storm today and after a lightening strike, my shop overhead door closed. I thought this really odd (and in fact unsafe - given other devices i have on relays) and i'm pretty sure i'd never seen elk activate relay like that before on startup. My wife called a few minutes later to note a sprinkler zone was on.
Long story short so far i've noticed a few things over last few hours (adding as i go):
1) i have two relay boards and one relay on each is stuck on. I've tried to cycle on the elk (which shows the output is off) to no avail. Also cycled the M1G twice, both relays remain on up[on boot up. a) curious as to what would cause it B) are the boards bad / do i have any options (one if fully used, the other might have a free relay)?
on second thought - i guess it could be the M1XOVs' outputs themselves are locked and not the relay. i can try to test that tomorrow...
2) phoneline seized LED is on and i can't access that line (the other line works fine).
seems to be same as: http://www.cocoontech.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=17066
though i haven't troubleshooted as much yet...
3) i no longer have control of the HAI thermostats. I have two. The serial expander seems to be flashing normal (i think) but no temp/setting/status at all seen in elk. Changing the setting at the thermostats is not forcing recognition by Elk either...
4) may or may not be an issue, but one of my motions has an issue (always violated with no motion) I'll test it tomorrow...
thx in advance
