I'm a newbie here, but I've done a lot of lurking / reading the past few months.
I'm about to build a house and I'm planning on a VRCOP, 65 Vizia RF+ devices, and an ELKM1.
Every zwave thread on here makes me nervous, but I think the Vizia stuff is gonna work from what I gather.
I do hope there is a way to make other mfgs of zwave stuff work rock solid with the ELKM1, but the basic implementation of Zwave stuff does not seem to want to update local changes to the elk, and its a zwave thing. The vizia stuff actually has another additional feedback feature, which is outside the zwave base spec, which makes the VRCOP get all the local switch status changes. Use an intermatic switch, and the VRCOP wont always see it.
At least that's how I've pieced the puzzle together without trying anything yet.
