Hey Dave,

I have another Elk question for you. I use the NX-448 48 zone wireless input controller. I have my wireless zones configured from 161-208.

I have 2 questions:

1.) Do I configure these as elkanalog or digital inputs?
2.) Do I set the numbers to Unit 11 Point 1, or to Unit 1 Point 161, or to Unit 11 Point 161?

I can not seem to get I/O from my wireless sensors into PH.

Thanks!

Jason,

Im not familiar with this hardware but I would first make sure that it's configured to work properly with the Elk with the Elk RP software. If everything is ok from the RP standpoint, then there should be no reason for it not to work with PowerHome.

As far as the numbering goes, Elk point 161 would be Unit 11, Point 1 thru Elk point 208 which would be Unit 13, Point 16. Basically, the "Point" would always be a value from 1 to 16.

Since Im not familiar with the hardware, does it mimic the Elk zones? Like a multi-state? Or is it sensing a varying voltage? That would determine what type of device to define in PowerHome.

I'll try to do some research on this device and see if I can provide some better answers.

Dave.

Jason,

I will query Elk and see if there is anything different with the wireless controller.

Do you have the M1XEP interface? If so, I will have support for it implemented shortly and we may be able to arrange me connecting remotely to your Elk for debugging.

I do not have an M1XEP, I VNC to my HA server and run PH and ElkRP from there. It was a good idea, though.
