paulinlapine Posted September 11, 2016 Posted September 11, 2016 I've got the Elk module and ISY 994i. The two integrate with each other great. The only issue is that I can't arm or disarm the Elk alarm from the ISY admin console. The console reflects the correct status of the Elk (ARMED or DISARMED) but the arm stay, arm away and disarm buttons do nothing. Everything else between the two systems works fine. Ideas??

Assume you have these modes available on the Elk?
paulinlapine Posted September 11, 2016 Author Posted September 11, 2016 Assume you have these modes available on the Elk? Yes, I can arm/disarm from Elk mobile app, no problem.
Scottmichaelj Posted September 11, 2016 Posted September 11, 2016 Yes, I can arm/disarm from Elk mobile app, no problem. And your disconnected from the Elk with ElkRP?
giesen Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 Make sure you don't have "Access" checked for the user in ElkRP Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk
paulinlapine Posted September 12, 2016 Author Posted September 12, 2016 Elk RP is not connected. Access is not checked for the user (me).
Michel Kohanim Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 Hi paulinalpine, Please use Event Viewer on Level 3, and make sure ISY is not complaining about an invalid access code. With kind regards, Michel
paulinlapine Posted September 14, 2016 Author Posted September 14, 2016 Here's a snapshop of the event viewer after I clicked the disarm button. System didn't disarm.
Michel Kohanim Posted September 14, 2016 Posted September 14, 2016 Hi paulinlapine, Perhaps you have not setup the user/access code properly? Please make sure you follow the instructions fo "Configuring an Elk User with an access code to use from the ISY" in https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=ISY-994i_Series_INSTEON:ELK_Security_Module . With kind regards, Michel
paulinlapine Posted September 14, 2016 Author Posted September 14, 2016 Thanks, Michel. I was using the Elk RP access code, (slapping self on the forehead) replaced that with my USER code and all is well.
dantoronto Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 I am also trying to arm ELK from ISY. I can disarm but not arm. I can use programs in ISY with IF's as to whether alarm is armed or not. But I can't arm. When I run "ARM STAY" from ISY, I get a "Failure to Communicate" on keypad. In fact, in some cases, it has triggered a "panic alarm" which should be F1. I am trying to create a program in ISY to ARM STAY which then allow me to trigger that program through Alexa. Any suggestions or guidance? Please make it simple, I am not a techie!!! Thanks
