I'm leaving town for an extended trip and my alarm monitoring company needed me to make changes to my system that required a firmware update on the M1XEP.  Now I can't connect with ElkRP (it rejects the RP Code that I know if correct).  I've read that I need to update the software to connect...

Every once in a while, when I go to disarm the system, a key press will record double presses when the number is only pressed once. The keypad is the M1KP2 and the only othe thing connected is the GE compatible wireless accessory. Has anyone else seen this?

I've just recently noticed this on my iphone (ipad is fine). I can't show the Elk function keys in the iphone interface. What am I missing?

I just bought a wireless Keyfob to use with an Elm M1 Gold but it doesn't have the TX ID on it anywhere. I have ElkRP but can't see any way to enroll it without the code. Does anyone know a way?

I have a new house and have installed 25 insteon switchlincs. Everything works great locally and, for the most part remotely except when I run a ISY program that turns a bunch of lights on. About every third time I run the program it trips either one or two breakers. I'm not sure the type of...

I would like to mount a iPad in the wall to control Insteon (ISY system) and Elk.  I would like to remotely wake the iPad's screen from the ISY.     For example, when I come home and violate a Elk zone, I would like the iPad to wake up and show me the alarm keypad so I can disarm.   Does anyone...

I have a Leviton C3 on its way to use with my ELK M1 and would like to order a SIM card for it.  Is it a standard size SIM, micro, or nano?   Thanks,   Ray

I'm looking for someone that installs ELK products in Austin.  Does any one know of any?

I am using a ISY 994i to control my insteon gear and have the ELK for security.  I am also using the ELK M1 to open and close my garage door when I press a function key on a keypad or remote.  The way I did this was by wiring one of the garage remotes to one of the ELK's contacts.  It works fine...

I need to provide NextAlarm with phone numbers to call for emergency services. I called the local emergency services office and they didn't know! :lol: I'm guessing there is some 10-digit equivalent to 911?? I'm in Portland, Oregon if that helps.

These two motion detectors are listed as compatible with the Elk wireless receiver: http://www.safemart.com/index.asp?PageActi...amp;ProdID=5884 http://www.safemart.com/index.asp?PageActi...amp;ProdID=5895 I'm having a hard time figuring out the difference. Does anyone know the main difference?

I have lost some faith in the Elk/wireless/NX488 Glass Break combination so I need to move on to other options. Our house has about 30 windows that open and my wife isn't keen on the idea of a sensor on each window. Also, as these windows are hardly every unlocked we don't see that as a huge...

Man, I'm having a terrible time with these glass breaks (GE NX487). I have 4 of them connected to an ELK M1 using the ELK wireless receiver. The only way I can get them to not show violated is to use Option 2 in the wireless setup. I have no idea what that option is. With that option I can open...

I have no idea if my mulitiple glass breaks are working so I would like to test them. Is there a specific tester that I need to buy? If so, which one?

We have a dog walker that comes to our house (has her own code) to walk our dog during the day. Right now the M1 emails us when she arms/disarms but that's an extra 4 emails a day we can do without. Is there a way to time the minutes between arm/disarm and then email that total?

I can connect to my Elk M1 from the internet to the virtual keypad in the ethernet interface from PCs so everything is setup. I have a PPC-6700 from sprint that runs windows mobile 5 (or 2003 or something like that). When I try to log onto my system through pocket IE, I am prompted for my...

I've got my Elk system setup and working reliably and am getting ready to go out of test mode with nextalarm. One thing that I have read in a few places is that the system should be tested frequently. Can one of the alarm pros here help me put together a test plan (i.e. what do I test, when...

I am controlling my garage door with the remote (wires soldered between it and output 3) I would like a way to make sure the door gets closed instead of blind faith that with the "button is pushed" the door will close. I have a sensor on the door so the ELK knows if it's open or closed. What...

I have a non-alarm door sensor on my garage door. How can I make the f4 key blink if that sensor is showing the door open?

When I arm/disarm the system with a keyfob or when I dial in and arm/disarm remotely the Elk reports the status change to NextAlarm. When I disarm at the keypad it will also send the status. The problem is, when I arm the system at the keypad (doesn't require a code to be entered) NextAlarm...
