20.1 Utilities

20.1.1 Hex to Network Resource Binary
Hex to Binary Converter -
devices.com/networkresources/HexToNRDecimal.zip
This link contains a Java utility that converts Hex text to binary decimal representation that
can be pasted into a Network Resource. For instance all Russound commands are in Hex.
Using this utility, you can seamlessly convert them to the binary version that Network
Resources understands.
20.2 External Interfaces
20.2.1 Elk IP-232
We have tested the Elk IP-232, which provides 1 serial port accessible over your ethernet
network.
• By default, the IP-232 uses TCP port 2401
20.2.2 Elk Relay Control
Many commands are possible, such as turning on/off/Toggling outputs, triggering Tasks in
Elk, simulating function Key presses on a keypad, arming and disarming, sending test to
keypads, speaking words (if you have the M1 Gold). This said, for best bi-directional
integration, please consider ELK Module:

20.2.3 Global Cache GC-100
We have tested the Global Cache GC-100-12, which provides 2 serial ports, 3 relays, and 6
IR outputs in a single box connected to an ethernet network. We have tested the serial,
relay, and IR outputs successfully.
• The GC-100-12 uses TCP port 4998 for the relay and IR outputs
• The GC-100-12 uses TCP port 4999 for serial port 1, and port 5000 for serial port 2
• Please use "C Escaped" mode when creating Network Resources on the ISY for
control of relays and IR, and append all commands with "\r\n"
