Operation
What makes the Elk Two-Way technology different from existing "older" wireless technology?
Elk's Two-Way technology is vastly superior to traditional one-way wireless. Each transmission from an Elk sensor is
looking for an acknowledgement from the receiver. Positive acknowledgement of a transmission results in the sensor
generally only needing to send a single transmission. In a rare case where the transmission is not acknowledged by the
receiver, the sensor intelligently resends the transmission. Each sensor also monitors and adjusts its ideal RF power,
using only enough power to get a signal through, thereby maximizing the battery life of the sensor.
Confidence of signal strength at the time of installation another unique feature of the Elk Two-Way technology. As long
as the Installer mounts the sensor in it's final intended location prior to enrollingand activates the enrollment process
after mounting, a positive acknowledgement from the Receiver automatically indicates there is sufficient signal strength
for continued reliable operation.
Requirements for Programming the Receiver and Enrolling Transmitters:
The Receiver and wireless transmitters may be programmed using either the M1 Keypad Installer Programming or the ElkRP
Remote Programming software. The following pages document the options and steps for programming from the keypad.
