The next option I'd like to buy for my M1G is an expanded owner's manual. I'm not aware of any such thing, though, and I think someone is missing out on sales by not putting one together. This need not be written to the "Elk for Dummies" level nor should it be targeted to the professional security platform installer, but rather should be aimed at people who are competent with PCs and similar electronic toys but have little or no security system experience. Actually, I'd probably buy a manual intended for either of the above if it was written by someone who both knows how to write and knows the system.
Were it not for Spanky, Martin, BraveSirRobbin, and, of course Dan (Electron), not to mention a host of others who selflessly patrol this board and share with us the benefit of their expertise and years of experience, I rather doubt I'd have settled on a system so sophisticated as the Elk.
Now would one (or more) of you please fire up your word processor and prepare to publish! It would be so nice to have the tips, tricks, and techniques all in one place. Lets put the emphasis on Elk's rules engine. Maybe I'd find all the answers at an AO class, but that solution isn't an option at the moment. I wanna buy the book!
