M1EZ8, the
newest member of the ELK M1 Control Family, offers an economical solution for
installations not requiring the voice and telephone remote control capability
of the M1 Gold. Unlike
controls that only offer basic security capability, M1EZ8 is a powerful, rock
solid security control with the most imaginative automation functionality
available. Built on the same software architecture as the M1 Gold, the
possibilities for expansion, networking, and option for programming and control
over the internet make the M1EZ8 an exceptional value.
Installers
will value the flash memory firmware, fast PC programming, ease of installation,
plus optional RS-232 serial port and Ethernet connectivity.
End users will welcome the quality and futuristic capabilities of the
versatile keypad.
M1EZ8 offers
the flexibility to integrate industry standard systems and components for easy
upgrades and system expansion. Interfaces well with lighting controls,
HVAC communicating thermostats, touch screens, etc. Optional Ethernet
port controls M1EZ8 and networked systems from a PC browser, anywhere.
Does not require a dedicated, "24/7" server.
