Ok Ive got to close up my walls in a few weeks downstairs and Im looking for the best touch screen wall controls for my system. I have a m1 gold in a server room in the attic in a two story.
I plan to run these systems from within there.
M1 Gold - hard wired
2 mk-5 russound 16 channel servers and 2 dms 3.1 sources
Russound compoint intercom system
16 channel hybrid hard wired / internet ccct server with aver card *every channel but one is hard wired
Cisco 54 port programable switch w POE several ports
Radio RA 2 with 8 Q- grafikra and 16 wireless sivoia controled shades/curtains
QNAP server
RTI-8p
acp battery backups
*nothing for video yet but need something.
all items owned but not setup
most low voltage wiring done
So at my front door I bought elks 7 in touch screen back in 2008 which is now probably outdated and was limited then. I need a reliable touch screen for most or all of these sysems about 7 inches that I could also see whos at the front door through the single channel output on the ccct server. Run the M1, Ra2, russound with cover art a sprinker system, internet access would be nice and whatever else I could squeeze in. compoint is self contained.
In the pantry under the stairs I have the Grafic eyes and a Elk Nav control as backup and one nav in master bedroom upstairs.
I also have a Bryant evolution system and want to integrate that but it was bought in 2008 and now I dont know which sys board will work with it. when I bought it there was only the one. Now I see there are at least 3. My rooms are zoned and it now has basic honeywell controls with humidity. There is better hard wired controls by carrier out now that I want to replace them with and I like the new integration sys board with wireless control for sensors also but dont know if it would work with the M1 or what the benifit of the 3 different boards are for me.. Elk doesnt know either or if the new ones work with Elk. Either does my A/C Carrier dealer. Im still waiting for them to get back to me. Please help
Another thing I'd like to use my Iphone 6 and ipad mini to run system integration software wether a single program for all or most if posible or individual system softwares. also would like to be able to watch what is on the telly if I have to go to the head or outside.
If anyone can help me with any of these problems I need help quick before Im required to close up my walls. Im drywalling room by room and doing alarm stuff / music stuff as I go
