Now that Leviton owns HAI, how have things progressed? How is support? Is it still a solid solution for security and automation? Has anybody integrated the URC products like the MRX-10 or MRX-8 and their touch screens with the OmniPro II? How solid is the integration between the two? Can you...

Thanks for the feedback guys. OK, so if I'm reading this right... "Put an end-of-line resistor across an M1 zone and program the zone for end-of-line supervision. Connect the the negative from your CM switch to the zone negative and the output line to the zone input that is not marked...

For those with an Elk WSV, how did you connect the green(status) and black(ground) wires to your system? I followed the install guide by connecting the WSV's ground to an Elk Supervised Power Supply (P212S) and the green wire to an input expander on Z16. What I'm getting is strange, my status on...

I have a friend with an Elk M1G and about 10 ceiling mount 360-degree Visonic dual-tech motions around his house. He is just about to get two cats and I'm wondering how well the dual-tech 360's handle small animals. Does anyone have experience with these and pets?

So LED lighting is coming down in price and getting better. I’ve had a lot of mixed results with LED lights and Insteon dimming however last night I made a breakthrough on a bulb that works extremely well. It’s available at Lowes for $21.95 and it’s made by Sylvania. It’s their Ultra High...

Are there any other structured wiring cans that have pre-drilled holes for mounting Elk brackets like the ELK-SWP3 and ELK-SWS? Does Elk use any type of standard (Leviton)? I’m trying to find a 42†can that I don’t have to drill. I picked up an OnQ but the hole spacing is different. Thanks!

I'm in as well!

Thanks Dan!

Can Elk RMS run in a non-windowed mode on a desktop PC? I have a small case mounted touch screen that I would like to use but RMS grays out the full screen icon. Can this be modified in a config file?

That's great to know! I’m really surprised Elk hasn’t made a big announcement on this, it’s a pretty big upgrade.

Did they release the new matching M1XEP firmware? It’s my understanding this is needed for the new audio functionality to work.

Been using it every day since it first came out... killer app.

Just wondering who will be attending EHX this month. What are the good hotels to stay at and are any of them reasonable?

Thanks guys, you all have excellent points. I don't really want to know where the fire is either, I just want my family out of the house. I think having them zoned by level would be useful but per room sounds like overkill and I wouldn't want a family memeber investigating if an alarm did go...

What are the pros and cons of home-running 4-wire smokes to running them in series? Of the two, what's the most common method of wiring up smokes and why?

I know the HAI OmniPro is but what about the M1 Gold?

For lighting? RadioRA 2 hands down. It's cheaper than the original RA and based on Lutron's track record you will never have to replace a switch (they just work). Why do you have Z-Wave listed next to RadioRA? RadioRA is not based on Z-Wave technology.

Good to hear... thanks!

I'm a PC and I helped design Windows 7. B) I use most popular OS's on a regular basis and in my book MS finally has a real winner. Along with their server platform as well... and yes, I'm a fan of WHS. This one might get me in trouble but my house is filled with Insteon, it always works, and...

I new firmware for the M1xep is coming... its been in the works for over a year now.
