I have some door/window sensors that work fine. I have a M1XRFEG installed in my attic. Since I have the motion on the main floor, I decided to install a second M1XRFEG on the main floor. Not sure if I have it setup correct, but I am not seeing a difference. I have it enrolled and I can see...

Have a Honeywell wireless motion under my car port.   Outside but not in any weather.   It used to work perfect, but after 5 years, plus another 5 from when I bought it. The range of detection is like 5 foot now.   Is this normal? I did just replace both batteries with no improvement.   Running...

I have the keyfob enrolled and it seems to work.   Arm does arm away and disarm works.  (top 2 buttons)   Bottom two buttons are separate from the top, but also work. Light = Arm Stay * - Disarm   I would rather use Light and * for something else. Like lock the zwave doors or turn the lights on.

I mounted some sensors on the outside of my house in key places.   They will currently chime a keypad when motion is set.   Are there other options aside from a chime?  How else can I use these to notify?   And I would really only want it to chime at night. Maybe chime only if alarm is set to...

I had this working, but now I can't get it to work.   Elk EZ8 panel with the Honeywell wireless. I have some motion sensors working fine on the wireless.   I manually enrolled and used the ELKRP software.   When I press a keyfob button I get a chime at the keypad. Thats it.   I cannot set or...

I still have one location that needs a keypad/panel.   Is the Elk Naviation panels worth the money? I do have an old Android tablet I could mount to the wall and run from WIFI? I could access my ISY, which would access the ELK?   Thoughts on this?

I have 3 sets of daisy chained 2 wire smoke detectors.   I would just tie all these to zone 8 and they would act like one zone? I need to add a resistor?

This is my second house and my second Elk install.   I am at the point where I think there is a hardware issue.   I have tried various methods to access the panel through ethernet and it is not working.   I can "see" the ethernet on my network. I can ping the ethernet. ElkRP can find it My ISY...

Just wondering the best method to install all the items in the panel. I have the EZ8 panel with ethernet, databus hub, MSI, power control. Not sure if there are optimal locations for panel placement.

Do I need to chose one system? Or can I run multiple recievers? Or will the elk wireless work with GE sensors?

In my old house I had the GE wireless for the Elk.   New house, looks like I have some options.   I see there is a Honeywell wireless driveway sensor I would like to use. I already have some new Honeywell key fobs.   But is the Elk wireless better for coverage?   I have a foil backed insulated...

The new Elk panel will be in the basement, the old DCS is in the upstairs bedroom.   I was able to pull down and mark all the wiring to the basement.  The wiring is not long enough will need to extend it. The DCS keypads were all 4 wire, so this should be an easy Elk swap.   I was thinking of...

This is working ISY 99 controller. Connects to network via ethernet Connects to Insteon system via PLM   $75

I had my elk and ISY working without issues for years. I was never able to get the email notification in ELK to work, ISY worked fine.   I thought I would try the ELK update to see if it would fix my email issues.   I have not had a chance to test the email, cause the ISY no longer communicates...

I know I had this working before, not sure what happened. I might have done something to silence the siren when working in ElkRP at night. I have a GE piezo on Output 2 I disconnected the wires from the elk and used a 9v battery on the wires to confirm the Piezo will sound. I hooked the wires...

I have a motion sensor in my detached garage and barn. Right now if there is motion they chime. Can I make it chirp in the house when the alarm is armed and we are home?

I have a currrent Elk EZ8 system in my house. I am using the GE wireless to have a wireless motion sensor in the garage. I would like to hardwire the garage so I can have a keypad. Also add another GE wireless receive to increase my wireless range to the barn. When I ran service to the garage...

I currently have an ELK EZ8 system. The kit came with a small plastic type siren. I want to add an ear bleeding siren in my detatched garage. What options are available? I am assuming it will need a local power source? Or would the elk panel run it. Same for a strobe mounted on the side of...

ELK EZ8 with caddx wireless Using ElkRP I enrolled a wireless motion sensor with no issue. I tried to enroll a DCS wireless door sensor. I typed in the code off the sensor, but no action. I tried to enroll from the keypad, but it won't let me choose a location. It defaults to 097, but I try to...
