Elk PG3 Voice Commands --> NOW ACTIVE!!

[dbwarner5]

@Jimbothanks for adding voice to the elk NS!

In testing I found the following to work properly:
 
Then
        Set 'ELK Controller' Speak Word [500ms_Silence]
        Set 'ELK Controller' Speak Word [500ms_Silence]
        Set 'ELK Controller' Speak Word [800hz_Tone]
        Set 'ELK Controller' Speak Word Front
        Set 'ELK Controller' Speak Word Door
 (I use the silent command and beep to "wake up" the paging system.)

However, when I used the following set up, the page came across as "Front Door is Open". The status should not have been included, and the door was actually shut.  
Then
        Set 'ELK Controller' Speak Word [500ms_Silence]
        Set 'ELK Controller' Speak Word [500ms_Silence]
        Set 'ELK Controller' Speak Word [800hz_Tone]
        Set 'ELK Controller' Speak Phrase Front Door

Not a big problem, as I can use words vs phrases, but may need to check some of the others.

Thanks, did you use Phrase's with the ISY ELK Module?  They should work the same.  Honestly I have never used them and from NS side there is no control, it just tells it to speak phrase #.

I think I did, but honestly, I dont remember! But sounds like its an Elk issue.  

The elk voice has some other oddities as well, where it "accumulates" voice commands during "no speak" time rules, and then when the first voice talks, it dumps out the accumulated voices first.
