OVERVIEW The "2H" model of the ELK-M1XRF Wireless RF Receiver (full part # ELKM1XRF2H) allows the ELK-M1 and ELK-M1EZ8 Controls to accept specific models of Honeywell (Ademco) 5800 style wireless transmitters. Refer to the list of compatible transmitters elsewhere in the manual. Regardless of model, an M1XRF receiver attaches to the four (4) wire (keypad) data bus and integrates in much the same way as a hardwired zone expander, with the exception that a single M1XRF can handle up to 144 wireless zones (e.g.

Setting the M1XRF Data Bus Address and the Starting Wireless Zone ID Devices that communicate on the RS-485 4-wire data bus must each have a valid address setting (from 1 to 15) within their device type. Keypads are TYPE 1, Hardwire and Wireless Input expanders are TYPE 2, Output expanders TYPE 3, Serial expanders TYPE 4.

Operation Handling Received Transmissions: Operationally when a transmitter signal is received by the M1XRF it quickly scans through a filter of valid transmitter sensors to determine if it that sensor has been enrolled into the M1 or EZ8 control. If that transmitter is valid then its data will be sent to the M1 Controller for additional processing.
Compatible "5800" Format Wireless Transmitters The below listed Transmitters have been tested and found to be compatible with the ELK-M1XRF2H Receiver. Elk makes no guarantee for any other transmitter model(s). All information shown below is based on the best available data provided by the transmitter manufacturer.

Transmitter Enrollment from a M1 Keypad using the "Lrn" method (REMINDER - An alternate method is to use the ElkRP software to program the Xmtr ID, Loop #, and any viable options.) rom Installer Programing pick Menu 14, sub-menu 3. Enter 3 digit number of transmitter/zone or use keypad Image Part Number(s) Up/Down arrow keys to scroll and locate a particular zone.
Appendix A - Data Bus Selection Tables These tables are intended to help visualize how the Wireless Zones and Hardwired Zones share the data bus address assignments. They should help with the setting of a starting zone ID and data bus address(s) to obtain the total and best mix of wireless and hardwired zones.
