How to interface a wireless doorbell with your Elk M1?

Grayson Peddie was kind enough to write a how-to explaining how to connect your wireless doorbell to your M1. Eventho he used the Elk M1 in this how-to, the concept will work with other devices supporting analog inputs such as the ADI Ocelot. Visit the link below for more details.

How To Wire A Wireless Doorbell to Elk M1 Gold

Hi. Thanks for putting this up. I wanted to post a video showing how the wireless doorbell works.



When I press the wireless doorbell button, my "modified" wireless doorbell receiver receives the signal from the transmitter, and then sends it to Elk M1 Gold (a security and automation system from Elk). Elk announces "someone at front door" and while doing so, it makes the light go off and on.
