I ran into a problem which may be my own doing. had a 912 relay about 75 feet from the panel and used an output to trigger it. The wiring is standard alarm wire so I am assuming I had a voltage drop and increase in current.  I am trying not to have to snake new wire so I am thinking of putting a...

Looking for help on why outputs 7-16 are always on. I do not have an output expander board so have wired relays to 4 of the outputs. The always on is something new and this has not always been the case. I have checked the voltage across output 15 and the neg output and get 13 volts constant. I...

I have a Elk Security system installed along with a ISY994izw. I have installed Trane thermostats onto the ISY and they are functioning fine. It's time to install light switches and would like recommendations on z-wave vs Insteon. I have the PLM as it came with the ISY.   Looking for any input...

I installed an new M1 panel along with 8 wired sensors and 42 wireless sensors (interlogix 319.5 ) most of the sensors are the new Tx-E201 window/door sensors. When I reboot the panel it takes about an hour to go through all the zones. It keeps showing that # zones are violated.  After about an...

Hi am trying to install the interlogix wireless motion sensors # 60-807-01-95R .   I entered the TX number using the RP2 program. Settings 1=Supervision, no options selected, PIR selected, Keyfob ID 199 H ID 5098116, Loop 0.   I already installed the interlogix wireless window and door sensors...

Does anyone know if the Elk two way transceiver is backwards compatible with ge wireless sensors? I have many of the "ge interlogix tx-1012-1-1" receivers and need to know that the new Elk Transceiver will work with them.   Thanks!

I have installed the Elk M1 panel and have had it up and running for about 6 months with no problems. It controls all security (wired and wireless sensors) and smoke detectors, along with three Aprilaire thermostats. It is time to add lighting controls. The house is approximately 4000 sq. ft...

I have purchased a small house with a DSC power 832 panel with two LED 8 zone keypads, 1 motion sensor and about 12 window and door sensors all hardwired including the motion sensor. When I turn on the system with a new battery installed (was hoping a new battery would work) the trouble light...

Hi All I am trying to get an ELK M1 with Aprilarie 8870 Tstats to override the normal settings when I arm the system with "Vacation Mode" As I have read here previously "there is no "not" command so what I think I have read is to use an "OutPut " as a trigger. What I am trying to accomplish is...

Hope you can help. All was working fine until I mistakenly programed the F6 key on Keypad number 2. I have since deleted the F6 key program but since then I get no voice messages when ever a zone has been violated. Any Ideas? I have made sure the Global settings G19-G25 are all checked and the...

I finally got my RMS program talking with my M1G panel with one exception. I have 3 Aprilaire 8870 thermostats connected via the protocol adapter and distribution panel. The RMS program only shows 2 of the thermostats. It shows TSTAT 1 = address 01 and TSAT 3 =address 03. TSAT 2 = address 02...

I have installed three Aprilaire 8870 Thermostats (addresses 1,2&3) using the protocol adapter and the distribution panel to my ELK M1G system. All works fine except that the room temperatures shown on the displays are about 3 degrees off! Anyone know of why this would be or how to adjust them...

I have just installed a M1GSYS4 in my house. It went pretty good so far. I am now ready to hook up the Thermostats. I have 3 zones which I am going to use Aprilaire 8870 stats on each zone. My question is can I hook the stats up directly to the RS-485 connection on the M1XSP or do I need to use...
