ELKRP alarm rule

[tomtnt]

Is the a way to force the ELK to trigger an alarm?

eventually I will buy the wireless CADDX adapter and a wireless FOB - however, I am currently using X10 wireless FOB. I want to set a rule:

WHEN A10 (wireless X10 trigger) is ON
THEN trigger BURGULAR ALARM -

I want to do this as a PANIC type button. I didn't see a THEN action to trigger an alarm?

thanks

You would use a THEN to turn on output 2 (or whatever) to sound the siren or speaker. That would be equivalent to making up your own alarm logic.

If you really want to the M1 to log an alarm condition, then you could always connect a relay output to one of the inputs...

The GE/Caddx FOB's can trigger any alarm ( or anything else) and is programmable in the Wireless Setup. The X10 FOB's are not currently mapped to trigger an alarm directly without using Rules.
