mb323 Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Ok, I'm stumped... I have been working on this for days, researching everything I could find checking and re-checking configurations with no luck. What I have is the alarm status, and arm buttons displayed in the Isy console, I have also exported and imported the xml file. When I go to Elk either via web console or using the alarm keypad, I can see the lights and their status but cannot turn them on or off. Any suggestions?
WayneW Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Are the Elk globals set correctly? Quote Check all six check-boxes for the "Serial Port 0 Transmit Options" on the Globals G29-G42 tab settings. fromhttp://www.universal-devices.com/mwiki/ ... figuration Without those checked, the Elk "listens", but doesn't "talk".
mb323 Posted October 21, 2011 Author Posted October 21, 2011 Yes, the globals are setup correctly, I used that exact same document to configure the connection when I set it up.
Michel Kohanim Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 Hello mb323, So, the only issue you have is that you cannot turn on/off devices attached to ISY from ELK? If so: 1. Did you export ELK configuration and import it into ELK? 2. Did you make sure to set the option flag in ELK lighting import? With kind regards, Michel

If you mean the Opt flag in the lighting table, yes they are checked by default for everything I imported. Thanks, Mark
Michel Kohanim Posted October 24, 2011 Posted October 24, 2011 Hi Mark, I want to be clear: if you are getting Arm/Disarm status on top of the Admin Console, then the only thing I can think of is that ELK is not configured properly because we use the same exact socket for communications. With kind regards, Michel
mb323 Posted October 25, 2011 Author Posted October 25, 2011 Sorry it took me so long to reply, with your last message I did a lot of testing. I noticed that although Isy still had the alarm status and alarm buttons showing it wasn't communicating either. The status wasn't current and the buttons wouldn't do anything. So I moved the Isy next to the alarm and put them on the same switch. Now both of them can communicate. I did not make any changes than to move the Isy from one switch to another. Still the same IP, gateway, ETC. Thanks for your help. Mark
