VERVIEW AND UPPORTED
The ELK panels integrate with the g! system using an RS-232 serial connection. The M1 Gold includes
an RS-232 port, whereas the M1EZ8 requires the ELK-M1EZ8MSI Main Serial Port Interface.
Integration of the security system provides monitoring and control from any touch screen, telephone or
computer both locally and remotely. Additionally, events occurring in the security system can trigger
system commands in other sub-systems in the home. For example, a burglar alarm can turn all the lights
on and send out email alerts. The security system can also receive commands as a result of events
within other sub-systems. For example, changing the house mode from Home to Vacation can trigger a
security command to arm the system.
IMPORTANT NOTE – LIGHTING AND THERMOSTATS:
Although the ELK panels can integrate thermostats and lighting systems, only the security functions of
the ELK panel are accessible by the g! system: any climate or lighting systems must be tied to the g!
system and NOT the ELK.
