    2 homerun cables directly to the M1 Control! The preferred way to connect multiple bus devices to M1 is to either daisy chain connect them along each homerun wire, or add a data bus hub device (Elk M1DBH or M1DBHR) in the panel that will support connection of mulitple homerun cables.
  • Page 4 LUTRON HOMEWORKS QS 2.10 IMPORTANT! THE ELK-M1XSLU MUST BE UPDATED TO SPECIAL FIRMWARE VERSION 80.0.6 FOR COMPATIBILITY WITH LUTRON HOMEWORKS QS. This special firmware version can be downloaded from the support section of our website, www.elkproducts.com. Procedures for Updating the M1XSLU firmware Connect a 9 pin serial cable or USB to serial adapter from the Computer to the 9 Pin RS232 Connector on the M1 Control.
  • Page 5 3 - Configuring the IP232 IP Interface Download and install the IP232 Configuration PC software utility from the ELK website (www.elkproducts.com). A copy of the IP232 instructions is packed with the M1XSLC kit with steps for defaulting, resetting, or updating the IP232 firmware if needed.
  • Page 6 Processor and keep that connection open at all times. If the connection should ever drop the IP232 will automatically reconnect.

  • Page 7 The completed configuration should look similar to the above with the exception of the actual IP addresses. Click Send Settings (To IP232) to program all of these settings into the ELK-IP232. 3.10 We suggest saving the configuration to hard disk or a thumbdrive for later retrieval. Click Save Settings (To Disk).
  • Page 8 LUTRON HOMEWORKS QS Adding Lutron Homeworks QS Lighting Devices to M1 Each Lutron Homeworks QS device must have a unique Device ID. Integrating Homeworks QS lighting devices into M1 involves mapping their Lutron Device IDs to corresponding M1 Light Device numbered locations. Any M1 Light Device locations that do not have a corresponding Lutron Device ID should be left blank (unprogrammed).
  • Page 9 LUTRON HOMEWORKS QS Controlling Homeworks QS Lights and Devices using Rules 4.13 Select ElkRP > Automation > Rules. 4.14 Click New to start a new Rule. E.G. Turn ON a Flood Light when the System is Armed Away. 4.15 Click WHENEVER > Security/Alarms > Is Armed > Armed Away. A pop-up box appears to pick the Area (par- tition).
  • Page 10 LUTRON HOMEWORKS QS Adding Lutron TouchPro Wireless Thermostats to M1 Lutron's TouchPro Wireless HVAC Thermostats are compatible with the Lutron Homeworks QS system. The M1XSLU can interface with up to sixteen (16) of these thermostats, but special steps are needed due to the architecture of the equipment. 1.
  • Page 11 (the one it replaced). IMPORTANT! We strongly recommend that each HVAC Thermostat be tested after any changes are made to Elk-M1 or the Lutron Homeworks QS network. Verify that each is communicating and responding properly. Test all ElkRP Rules that involve a Thermostat.
  • Page 12 LUTRON HOMEWORKS QS Controlling TouchPro Wireless HVAC Thermostats using Rules Select ElkRP > Automation > Rules. Click New to start a new Rule. Example: Lower the Heat and Raise the Cool Setpoints when Armed. 5.10 Click WHENEVER > Security/Alarms > Is Armed > Armed Away. A pop-up box appears to pick the Area (partition). Use the drop down to pick the area or Click OK to accept "Area 1".
  • Page 13 Buttons on Homeworks QS Wall or Tabletop Keypads, and Visor Ctrl Receivers may be programmed to activate Groups of lights (Scenes) with a single press. To permit M1 to activate these buttons, Elk reserved the use of "Set to Level" and Fade Rate 7 to activate special commands to the M1XSLU.
  • Page 14 LUTRON HOMEWORKS QS Phantom Keypads The Homeworks QS Designer PC Software allows for the configuration of Phantom Keypads. "Buttons" on these phantom keypads can be programmed to active groups of lights (scenes). M1 can activate these "buttons" through rules, using set to levels 1 to 99 with Fade Rate 7.
