I tried to start a new thread as a long-term member.  I kept getting re-directed to CloudFlare's CAPTCHA tests and I kept failing.  It vaguely implied that I might be infected, but it gave no details.  I tried both FireFox and Chrome, running Win7.  Eventually I had the idea to disable Privacy...

Is anyone else having trouble with NextAlarm?   Yesterday (Saturday), my Elk M1 tried to do it's 9 AM test call.  It apparently failed and my M1 kept re-trying until I noticed the phone line being active about 2 hours and 300 calls later.  I disconnected the M1 from the phone line to stop the...

I would like to be able to quickly turn the filter on & off. When off (I have time to scan everything), I want to see everything. When on (time limited), I want to block some of the secondary (to me) forums. the filtering itself seems to work fine, but it is awkward to turn it back on. It...

spinning up a new thread from http://www.cocoontech.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=18767 How does AlarmRelay compare to NextAlarm, specifically when using an Elk M1? We know that NextAlarm does a lousy job of handling Elk system trouble reports by confusing them with zone names and they...

1) How noisy are the relays in the RC-2000? I realize this is pretty subjective, but some thermostats I have seen have pretty loud clicks and some are nearly silent. Obviously old mercury switch analog stats were dead silent, and I assume the communicating states that have the relays at the...

Can somebody explain what a "true day/night camera" is and what relevant specs to look for to very it's "truth". I am confused when I see cameras that claim to be "true day/night", but they also have IR LEDS. I was under the impression that "true day/night" cameras didn't NEED IRs? examples...

Does anybody know what the slots/notches/grooves on the back of the ECM-1240 are for? Do they match up to anything popular, such as DIN rails? I am looking to mount 3 of them and some sort of rail would be great, rather than 4 screws for each. Additionally, can you use multiple ECM-1240's off...

Are there any Uplink customers or dealers here doing business directly with Uplink (not through NextAlarm or another service) for alarm monitoring? If so, please PM or email me, or post here so I can contact you. I have a question about Uplink service and policies.

I am looking for my first real security DVR and had a question: Do all of them offer synchronized playback of multiple cameras? If not, who offers it and what do they call it? To clarify, if I had a 4 channel DVR, with 4 cameras, I would like to be able to watch a playback quad split of all 4...

I have been happy with my Uplink Anynet cell reporting as a backup for my M1, but recent conversations have me wondering about things. AFAIK, the Anynet uses SMS messaging, which has two drawbacks... 1) SMS not guaranteed to be instant delivery (a 10 minute late fire or medical alarm report is...

Has anybody done the work to get the BrulTech data into HomeSeer 1.7? I plan on getting the new ECM-1240 (or two) and would like to get the current data into HomeSeer 1.7, with the ultimate goal of getting the data into Cacti ( aka RRDtool or MRTG) for logging and graphing with other...

Is it possible to detect when an M1 system has had to resort to its second or third choice of notification methods? I would hate to eventually discover that my primary notification methods has been failing for some period of time and I was relying on my backup notification. Does the scheduled...

The biggest annual US Home Automation show is coming soon. Who is going to be there? Is anybody interested in a group dinner? I live nearby and would love to meet some folks again. I can also supply local information. Sorry, but it looks like no rocket or shuttle launches this year. Feel free...
