Hi guys...
I am adding a coulple of zones to my Elk. One on a gate at the courtyard outside my front door, and one on my overhead garage door.
I'm wondering what is the best zone definition to use in the Elk configuration. I don't think I want either to trigger a burglar alarm, but I would like to have a voice announce when the are opened, and would prefer to see their status on the keypads.
I have toyed with Aux1, Aux2 and non-alarm configurations. Am I correct in that the only difference is that the Aux types write to the log file and the non-alarm does not? I have experimented with all three and I still get voice announce but no status on the keypad.
What is the difference between Aux1 and Aux2?
Would you recommend one of the above or is there a better way to approach this?
TIA
Mike
