Elk M1 via M1XEP Development

the Disarm button works!!!

Quick question:

In the preferences, what is the difference between password and code? I assume code is your unlock code (which was tested to work), and i assumed password is your user password that is created in the ELK EXP module. However i was thinking that the EXP module also requires a username, so i am guessing i am wrong here.

Ok the logs look good. No event is just an event that hasn't been defined so no worries. As for the arming, they should all work. Oh it may only work for area 1, I can't remember I will check when I get home.

Yes the code is what you use to arm and disarm the system. Where as the password is the elk rp password. I don't think I am using the password for anything at this point.

Try arm away and see if your system arms.

If your system isn't ready to arm it wouldn't maybe tell ya so make sure its ready to arm.

I tried the arm away, and got:

So, it seems like the connection is working fine. I am guessing that my system is not receiving the "arming" command correctly.

Ok I will check when I get home later today. By the way in your previous logs message (around message 20) the one towards the end contains your arm code if you want to delete it.

Thanks!. No rush, just trying to provide as much input as i can.

Also, i forgot to say that i did check to see if i the system was ready to be armed at the keypad before i tried arming it from HE.

Hey so I checked a few things and can't see any issues so far. It definitely will only work with area 1 at this time. All my arms work without any issues. If possible can you try to arm the system in 'armnight' mode and send me the log. If you want to blur out your code just copy the log over to notepad and change the to all 5's but make sure to leave the rest.

This is the log data we are looking for. You can also send me disarm log data so I can see why that is working.

Sorry for the delayed response. I did an "armnight" and this is what i got

It looks like the command is being sent, and received, but not activating the alarm. I am wondering if it may be a configuration at the ELK M1 itself that is different.

Also for disarming, this is what i get (and it works)

Also, i am trying to decrypt what the sendMsg is telling the Elk system. Do you happen to have a breakdown of what each digit does. I have only figured out digit 5 is the zone, digits 6-11 are the password, I believe digits 14-15 are a checksum?

thanks again for all the help

Just curious do you have HSM installed?

Here is your disarm code brokendown.

0D a0 1 005555 00 40

0D - String length
a0 - Command code
1 - Area
005555 - Code
00 - Future use
40 - Checksum

Sorry not sure what HSM is? Is it something on the ELK or HE. If its on the HE then no

Your arm incoming message shoud be something like 1207 so 1CLD1207

Your disarm incoming message is spot on.

Awesome thanks! Looks like my Checksum is wrong.

yours was 0Da410055550034
mine was 0Da41005555003C

So maybe the M1 system is thinking its a bad command?

I will check your checksum but mine would be different if my code is different. Actually to check your checksum I would need your code but I don't think that is the problem.

Does anything with 'Access Keypad' or Proximity reader sound familiar to you and your Elk installation?

I've opened up ElkRP, and have a Keypad 01 and do remember looking into proximity readers. i installed the Elk myself (which may be the problem!!)

I installed myself too, uh oh, lol! Also can you arm your system by just pressing the stay or away button. I think I have an idea and what to do.

In addition, we can now import all zones for contact, motion, etc...

When i press the stay or away button, it has a countdown timer.
