Zone Status

[apostolakisl]

I was wondering if you might consider supporting the "type 4" zone setting.

 

You can have

 

1) not secure - open

2) not secure - short

3) not secure with resistor

4) secure with resistor

I wondering if its just a terminology thing as there are 4 physical options to choose from currently. The is something the Elk guru's could possibly help with.

I am only showing 3 usable physical status choices on ISY. "Not configured" doesn't make any sense to me since there is no way to have a zone on Elk with configuration blank. The more advanced way to set up an Elk zone is to have an EOL resistor in place for both secure and not-secure. In this mode, "not secure" is one voltage, "secure" is another voltage, and "open/short" are both trouble.

 

I have a zone setup this way and would like ISY to be able to tell the difference between "open" trouble and "short" trouble.

 

Perhaps I can do a work around where I have it querry the voltage any time it reads "trouble" and then use the voltage ranges to control my programs.
