Where do I download ElkRP?

[MrOcelot]

When I received my Elk M1 Gold I was surprised to find that it did not include a CD with ElkRP. Anyone know where I can obtain this software. It is supposedly free.

I tried Elk Products but it appears that the download area is limited to dealers and installers.

I called Worthington - who I bought the panel from, and they shipped me out a CD. I'm currently trying to get an account setup on the Elk M1 website and others here seem to have managed to get access.

I hope Elk provides a forum and access for hobbyists. They seem to have a very good product with the M1 Standard and Gold. I sold off my ADI Ocelot (which has top notch customer service and an excellent forum) and modules to migrate to the Elk, let's see how it goes. Right now I am reading the install manual and trying to figure out where I want to place the keypad. I am also waiting for my PSC-05 and will order the ElkRP Software CD at the same time. Meanwhile I will wire everything up on a test bench.

Are you using the wireless expander and if so do you recomment the 4408E, 4416E or the 4448E? Wireless PIRs are very expensive in comparison to hardwired.

MrOcelot - Welcome.

You can download both the firmware and ElkRP software from the Dealer website. Call Elk to have them set you up with a username and password.

Called Elk and they had processed the registration. I can now access the forum and download firmware upgrades and s/w.
