We use that to trigger our user interface scenes of where the issue is, graphically, by text and to invoke additional rules on the myServer side. And whether the violation is a motion, a contact, a smoke or a temperature sensor. myServer 6 knows not just that it is violated but which Zone is violated. The difference in approach is "loxone" can be aware that the ELK has been violated. And myServer 6 can trigger any rule or have the ELK "talk". I would not use their low voltage lighting again as the install costs were too high due to product and wiring design (connector) issues and 24VDC wiring is not big in the US.Ĭlick to expand.Hmmm, I wouldn't call that "integration".When Allonis says we integrate with ELK, it's a bi-directional data communication either via IP or serial where our myServer 6 controller knows the status of every contact, every sensor, every rule employed in the ELK. A strong point for customers who want it is how they automate the house with occupancy sensors controlling lighting scenes that keypads can overrule, A if your customer wants that approach. I did not like their wiring which has weak device connectors at both the panel and the endpoints, we spent significant time addressing wiring issues that improved quick connects would have addressed, D. Programming is very good and the system is very versatile, support is excellent, A. Their own keypads i judge to be between low end and high end alternatives for aesthetics But they incorporate audio and shade control (or program what you want to those buttons) as well as temperature and humidity sensors… there are also good 3rd party keypad alternatives, B. Lighting is for most people comparible to Lutron Homeworks at a lower price point, A. They have audio similar to Sonos but with fewer services (eg Spotify but no Pandora) though I expect that will change and AirPlay makes that less of an issue for Apple users, B. Their alarm does not allow monitoring and they do not have real integration with 3rd party alarm panels, I’d give them a F for Alarm. I have installed it and it is mostly good but they are very European requirements focused which means they miss the mark on some things important to the US market.
