M1XRFEG Installation Manual Page 3
OVERVIEW
The "EG" model of the ELK-M1XRF Wireless RF Receiver (full part # ELKM1XRFEG) allows the ELK-M1 and ELK-M1EZ8
Controls to accept GE 319.5MHz format Wireless Transmitters, including other brand sensors that are compatible with the
GE protocol. Refer to the list of compatible transmitters elsewhere in the manual. Regardless of model, an M1XRF receiver
attaches to the four (4) wire (keypad) data bus and integrates in much the same way as a hardwired zone expander, with the
exception that a single M1XRF can handle up to 144 wireless zones (e.g. transmitter sensors or points). Benefits of operating
from the data bus are: 1) The receiver can be installed virtually anywhere in a building up to the maximum distance of the data
bus. This provides optimum convenience and coverage. 2) Multiple receivers (up to 11 total) can be connected to a single
control providing even greater coverage as well as redundancy. Using multiple receivers it is possible to cover hundreds if
not thousands of square feet with a receiver placed in strategic locations.
A strong point of the M1XRF receiver is that all transmitter programming and enrollment data gets stored in the control panel,
not in the receiver(s). This provides two advantages: 1) Multiple "redundant" receivers can be deployed in a building and a
transmitter only need be enrolled one time. Even portable devices such as Keychain Remotes work perfectly regardless
of which receiver picks up the transmission. 2) And should a receiver ever become damaged or need replacement it is not
necessary to re-enroll the transmitters. Simply replace the receiver and perform a data bus enrollment of the receiver to the
control panel.
IMPORTANT: There are several models of Wireless (RF) Receivers built for the Elk-M1 and M1EZ8 controls. The
M1XRFEG supports GE 319.5MHz transmitters while the M1XRF2H supports Honeywell (Ademco) transmitters. An
older model (M1XRF2G) aslo supported the GE transmitters, however this model was phased out and replaced
by the M1XRFEG part number.
THE BRAND OF TRANSMITTERS INSTALLED BE MATCHED TO THE CORRECT RECEIVER.
A single M1 Control can accept a mixture of receivers and transmitters. However, extreme care must be
exercised to assure that each transmitter brand is within range of it's respective receiver model. In other words,
the receivers are physically and electronically different and can only receive the transmissions of their particular
brand transmitters.

General Installation and Setup
1. Mounting - Two (2) #6 x 1/2" screws (not provided), one on each side of the housing should be used for mounting. The
receiver connects to the M1's Keypad data bus and may be remotely located up to several thousand feet away from the
control. Mounting inside a metal enclosure or on metalized wallpaper is NOT RECOMMENDED! Try and mount at least
10 feet away from any electrical device that generates noise including the M1 Control as electrical noise may reduce the
receiver sensitivity. For increased signal coverage or redundancy additional M1XRF Receivers (up to 11 max.) may be
connected to the same M1 Controller. See Appendix C.
2. Wiring Connections - Before making any wiring connections, turn the power Off on the Control Panel. Connect
terminals +12V, A, B, and Neg from the receiver to the M1's Keypad Data Bus (terminals +VKP, Data A, Data B, & Neg).
NOTE: Refer to the M1 Installation Manual and the M1DBH information in this manual about proper
connections of data bus devices with multiple homerun cables.
3. Antenna Installation
The receiver is supplied with two (2) antennas. These should be installed into the top locations marked Antenna. Dual
antennas ensure signal diversity which helps eliminate RF dead spots.
NOTE: Each antenna location has a two (2) position screw terminal block. MAKE SURE to insert and tighten the
antennas into the screw terminals marked ANTENNA. Do not use the adjacent screw terminal.

Devices that communicate on the RS-485 4-wire data bus must each have a valid address setting (from 1 to 15) within
their device type. Keypads are TYPE 1, Hardwire and Wireless Input expanders are TYPE 2, Output expanders TYPE 3,
Serial expanders TYPE 4. The device types allow address numbers to be re-used in each different device type. There are
4 address switches, each with an OFF or ON position (binary value 0 or 1) and decimal equiv. value of (1, 2, 4, or 8). The
total decimal value of the "ON" switches determines the data bus address. Set the switches to the desired data bus
address by referring to Tables 1-1 and 1-2. A small screwdriver may be helpful. See important information before
proceeding to "Data Bus Enrollment".
VERY IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!
Due to Hardwire and Wireless expanders sharing the same device type and same bus address range,
unintentional data bus "Conflicts" are possible with M1XRF Wireless Receiver(s) and M1XIN Hardwired
Expander(s) installed on the same control. These conflicts can be avoided with proper understanding of
the issues and careful planning and execution during installation. The important point to remember is
that M1XRF Wireless Receivers and M1XIN Zone Expanders share the same data bus addresses. Below
are some issues and recommendations to avoid addressing conflicts:
M1XIN Expanders: A single ELK-M1XIN Hardwired Zone Expander (M1XIN) provides 16 hardwired zones. The data bus
address SETS THE ID OF THE STARTING ZONE of each 16 zone group. See Table 1-1. If additional M1XINs are installed,
each must have a different address (usually the next available) to set the starting zone of the next 16 zone group. I.E., Each data
bus address equates to a specific group of 16 zone IDs. Everything works fine as long as there are NO DUPLICATE addresses.
M1XRF Receivers: The differences between a ELK-M1XRF Wireless Receiver and a ELK-M1XIN Zone Expander are:
1) With only a single (1) M1XRF Receiver it is possible to add up to 144 wireless zones to the control, assigned in groups
of 16 at a time. The only stipulation is that in order to have 144 total wireless zones the first group of 16 must begin at
zone 17 and the balance of the wireless zones must be sequential through zone 160. Caution! If any hardwired zone
expanders are enrolled in the range of zones 17 through 160 then 16 wireless zones will be lost for every hardwired (16
zone) expander.
2) It is possible to have multiple M1XRF Wireless Receivers installed for added range and coverage redundancy. The
"redundant" receivers can be assigned to any unused data bus address. For this reason the data bus address of an
M1XRF Receiver does not actually determine the starting wireless zone number. Even so, for the sake of simplicity,
installers are encouraged to set the data bus address of the first M1XRF Receiver (if there are multiple Receivers) to the
starting zone ID as depicted in Tables 1-1 and 1-2.
NOTE: ELK strongly recommends that the starting wireless zone number conforms to the numbering scheme shown
in Tables 1-1 and 1-2, even though the actual data bus address of the M1XRF could be address 10 while the first
group of 16 wireless zones could be programmed as 17-32. Although there may be some benefits to being able to
program the starting zone without regard to the data bus address, the disadvantages are potential zone numbering
conflicts when M1XIN Hardwired Zones Expanders exist. For the sake of simplicity, installers are encouraged to
set the starting zone ID and the M1XRF data bus address to conform to the conventional settings used by the
hardwired zone expanders. Refer to Tables 1-1 and 1-2 on opposite page.
Other important considerations when installing an M1XRF:
a) From a system configuration point wireless zones are allocated in minimum blocks of 16 zones. But you are not
required to utilize all 16 of the zones.
b) Care must be taken to ensure that wireless zones NEVER spill over into data bus addresses that are already assigned
to or in use by a M1XIN Hardwired Zone Expander and vs. versa,
c) Regardless of where the wireless zones start we strongly suggest that all additional wireless zones be contiguous and
that no M1XIN Hardwired Zone Expanders be installed at data bus addresses associated with those wireless zone
numbers. Data Bus Addresses whose zone IDs are effectively "overlapped" by wireless zones are considered
"reserved" for wireless use and should not be used by a hardwired zone expander. See Appendix C.
d) The last wireless zone number can NEVER be assigned higher than zone 160. Put another way, zones 161 through 208
cannot be wireless zones.
e) The maximum number of wireless zones is 144, therefore the last wireless zone number cannot be greater than 160.
Example: You decide to create 64 contiguous wireless zones. And the starting wireless zone ID is set to "17" (associated
with data bus address 2). That would mean that zones 17 to 31, 32 to 48, 49 to 64, and 65 to 80 are going to be wireless
zones. Based on Tables 1-1 and 1-2 it is easy to see that zones 17 to 31 are associated with data bus address 2 and zones
32 to 48, 49 to 64, and 65 to 80 are associated with data bus addresses 3, 4, and 5 respectively. As a result, addresses 3,4,
and 5 ARE NOT AVAILABLE for use by M1XIN Expanders because the wireless zones are overlapping these addresses.
NOTE: Consider whether the system may ever required more wireless or hardwired zones. If the answer is yes it
would be good to plan the data bus address assignments in such a way that future growth is possible without having
to default the control or totally re-arrange the addresses at a future date.

M1XRFEG Installation Manual Page 7
Handling Received Transmissions:
Operationally when a transmitter signal is received by the M1XRF it quickly scans through a filter of valid transmitter sensors
to determine if it that sensor has been enrolled into the M1 or EZ8 control. If that transmitter is valid then its data will be sent
to the M1 Controller for additional processing. The M1 Controller automatically informs any additional M1XRF Receivers that it
has received this transmitter, just in case they also heard the same transmission. This handling procedure does two things.
It eliminates duplicate signal processing while allowing multiple receivers for improved range and reliability. It also helps
prevent unwanted or neighboring transmitters belonging to another system from being duplicated on the data bus.
Operation
Diagnostic LEDs:
Three (3) Status LEDs provide valuable information as to the operation of the M1XRF:
BUS STAT "STATUS" RED LED - This displays multiple conditions as outlined below:
OFF = No Power to the M1XRF
ON Solid = The M1XRF is Not Enrolled or the Microprocessor is not functioning.
BLINKING = 2 different blink rates:
- Normal Operating mode - indicated by a slow blink of once per second with a matching Off time.
- Bootloader mose - indicated by a more rapid "two" blinks per second with a very brief Off time.
This occurs when the unit is awaiting a flash download of its application firmware. Until the firmware
application has been successfully downloaded the M1XRF is non-functional as a wireless receiver.
RXD "VALID" GREEN LED - This LED will momentarily turn on when the M1XRF receives a valid transmitter and is in the
process of sending the signal packet back to the M1 Controller. As soon as the packet is acknowledged by the M1
Controller the LED will turn Off.
REC'D "RF" YELLOW LED - This LED blinks whenever and RF transmitter signal is detected.
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.
Transmitter (RF) Level Checking [Signal Strength]:
Wireless transmitters send multiple repeats "or rounds" of their data transmission packets to compensate for interfer-
ence, weak signal, etc. The repeated packets are useful to the receiver in providing level checking [signal strength, walk
test, etc.} as a reference of the acceptable reliability of the sensor and it's mounting orientation and/or location.
When the M1XRF receiver first hears a wireless transmission, it tracks and totals the number of received data packets
over the next 10 seconds. During keypad enrollment of a new transmitter, the total number of received packets is voice
announced by the M1 immediately following the successful enrollment. The number is also voice announced during the
Keypad Walk Test of a Wireless zone. For Example: If all data packets from a sensor (8 out of a total of 8) were
properly detected you should hear "Sensor X, Level 8". This would indicate the highest signal strength for this particular
Intrusion Sensor.
In Elk's opinion, the minimum acceptable level of any wireless sensor would generally be a level 4. This is based on
the fact that the M1XRF Receiver REQUIRES a minimum of 2 repeated data packets in order to qualify an event as a
valid transmission. Level 4 is just a rule of thumb based on doubling the minimum required number of repeated data
packets. It is the responsibility of the installation company and their technicians to adopt their own policy of what
should constitute a minimum acceptable level [signal strength] of any wireless transmitter.
IMPORTANT: Because the M1XRF counts all valid data packets received over a 10 second time window, it is possible
to occasionally hear a number that is much higher than the number you might expect to hear from a particular sensor.
This can occur when multiple transmitters on a site happen to transmit at the same time as the one being tested.
Based on the type of RF sensor being tested, if the announced value is too high or just sounds wrong or inconsistent, ,
it is recommended that you retest or retrigger that sensor to get a more correct data packet decode level.

Wireless Submenu Description
This submenu is for Receiver options. To select this menu press the RIGHT arrow key, or
press the Up or Down arrow keys to scroll the submenus.
Rec. Option R03 is the time value for zones programmed as Supervisory Type 1 or "Non-Fire"
transmitters (see Xmit Transmitter Opt 02 below). The range is 001 to 255 hours. If a Type 1
sensor fails to check-in prior to the expiration of this time it is considered "missing". Factory
default setting is 024 hours. NOTE: A value less than 4 hours is NOT RECOMMENDED!
Rec. Option R04 is the time value for zones programmed as Supervisory Type 2 or "Fire"
transmitters (see Xmit Transmitter Opt 02 below). The range is 001 to 255 hours. If a Type 2
sensor fails to check-in prior to the expiration of this time it is considered "missing". Factory
default setting is 004 hours. NOTE: A value less than 4 hours is NOT RECOMMENDED!
This submenu is for specific transmitter options. However, some options are not applicable
to this model of the M1XRF. To select this menu press the RIGHT arrow key, or press the Up
or Down arrow keys to scroll the submenus.
Use the UP and DOWN arrow keys to locate a particular wireless transmitter. Press the
RIGHT arrow key to select and program the displayed transmitter.
Displays whether a transmitter is enabled or disabled. This option CANNOT be used to add a
new device, but it can be used to temporarily suspend an already enrolled device. The enroll
process must be used to add a new transmitter, after which this location will be set to Yes.
Selects the supervision "Type" for each transmitter. Type 0=Non-Supervised (Keyfobs or
devices that may leave the premises), Type 1=Normal Supervision (Burglar Sensors), Type
3=HI Supervision (Fire Sensors). See receiver selections R02 and R03 for supervision time
values. Valid values are: 0, 1, or 3 Factory default setting is 1 (Normal Supervision).
Option for certain types of Transmitters. Example: For keyfob transmitters setting this option
to Yes converts buttons 1 to 4 to appear instead as buttons 5 to 6. Default is No. See list of
compatible Transmitters to determine which (if any) transmitters use this option.
Option for certain types of Transmitters. Example: For transmitters with Ext. contact terminals
setting this option to Yes permits Open Circuit [N/O] switches. If set to No then only Closed
Circuit [N/C] switches may be connected. Default is No. See list of compatible
Transmitters to determine which (if any) transmitters use this option.
Used to program the User ID tha t is logged when a Keychain Remote transmitter assigned to
this zone is used to arm of disarm. Valid range is 001 to 255. Numbers 001 to 199 mirror
keypad user codes. Note: Open/Close reports may be programmed for every User code.
Not currently used. FYI: To conserve battery most Wireless PIRs transmit alarms only, no restorals.
Therefore the panel has to take for granted a restoral condition after a small time delay. Wireless PIRs
also conserve battery by permiting only 1 detect and transmission in a timed cycle, and are virtually dead
until the time cycle expires. For this reason Wireless PIRs are not very useful or practical for automation
or occupancy detection applications.

Select zone for enrolling a new transmitter by entering the three (3) digit zone number OR by
scrolling to the zone number using the UP and DOWN arrow keys. NOTE: If a transmitter is
already enrolled for this zone the display will resemble 3c below. Otherwise, it will display
"TransmitrToLrn".
Press the RIGHT arrow key to select and program that zone.
This message will display and the M1 will speak: "Press Transmitter Button for Zone XXX",
UNLESS a transmitter is already enrolled (see below). Proceed to the transmitter and execute
the enroll process. I.E. Press the tamper button, etc. The keypad will chime and the M1 will
speak: "[Zone Name] Enrollment" if successful. It will also speak a number indicating the
relative strength of the last transmission. Refer to section titled "Transmitter Level Checking."
This display shows the zone number and ID of the enrolled transmitter. NOTE: After a new
transmitter is enrolled the control automatically advances to the next zone number and the M1
speaks "Press Transmitter Button for Zone XXX". This permits rapid enrollment of additional
transmitters in sequential order. When transmitter enrollment is complete press the ELK key
twice to exit the enrollment and return to the other menus.
IMPORTANT! If it becomes necessary to delete or replace an existing transmitter you must
use the transmitter option "WZnxxx 01" and select "No" to disable the existing transmitter.
Once a zone is selected there are 2 ways to enroll a new transmitter.

WirelessTransmtr
This submenu is used for manually enrolling transmitters. To select this menu press the
RIGHT arrow key, or press the Up or Down arrow keys to scroll submenus.
This menu is used to program the operation or "action" that a keyfob button will perform. A
four (4) button keyfob can be assigned up to six (6) separate operations as explained below.
To select this menu press the RIGHT arrow key.
Press the UP or DOWN arrow keys to select a key (1 to 8). There are 8 possible keys but
only 6 of them can be used. The definition or operation is programmed using a four (4) digit
event code derived from the Zone Definitions table located in the M1 Installation Manual. The
range is 0000 to 0030 See M1 Installer Manual, Appendix A, Event Codes.
Each of the four (4) buttons on a Keyfob has a printed symbol and the M1 programming has
the following default event (operation) assigned to these buttons:
Key # / (ICON) M1 Default Value Operation
Key 1 / Lock Event=0027 KeyMomAway (Arm the Control)
Key 2 / Unlock Event=0029 KeyMomDisarm (Disarm the Control)
Key 3 / Light Event=0000 "No default function"
Key 4 / Asterisk Event=0000 "No default function"
ALTERNATE KEY FUNCTIONS
The operation of the Light and Asterisk symbol buttons can be altered by selection of the
transmitter option "WZnxxx 03" and "WZnxxx 04". Refer to the previous page.
Example of a keyfob transmitter enrolled at Zn017:
Setting WZn017 03: {Option1} to NO makes the Light button trigger the event assigned to
Key=3. Setting WZn017 03: {Option1} to YES makes the Light button trigger the event
assigned to Key=5 instead. Effectively swaps Key 3 for Key 5.
Setting WZn017 04: {Option2} to NO makes the Asterisk button trigger the event assigned to
Key=4. Setting WZn017 04: {Option2} to YES makes the Asterisk button trigger the event
assigned to Key=6 instead. Effectively swaps Key 4 for Key 6.
DOUBLE KEYPRESSES
Pressing the Lock and Unlock buttons together momentarily will trigger the event assigned
to Key 7. The M1 Default Event Value is "0000" or "No default function".
Pressing the Light and Asterisk buttons together momentarily will trigger the event assigned
to Key 8. The M1 Default Event Value is "0000" or "No default function".
WZone = 17 shown as example only!

Cells marked " * * " indicate a Reserved Address which can only be used for wireless zones.
Cells marked " RRF " indicate bus addresses where ONLY a redundant M1XRF Receiver can be installed.
Cells marked " H or RRF " indicate bus addresses where either a M1XIN Hardwired Expander OR a redundant M1XRF Receiver can be installed.
These tables are intended to help visualize how the Wireless Zones and Hardwired Zones share the data bus address assignments.
They should help with the setting of a starting zone ID and data bus address(s) to obtain the total and best mix of wireless and
hardwired zones. At a minimum, the left column shows the total "max." wireless zones that may be obtained based on the starting
zone ID and data bus addresses chosen.
1. Each table has a bolded column showing the 1st wireless zone ID at a particular value (associated with a data bus address).
NOTE: The total (max.) number of wireless zones is decreased by 16 zones for any hardwired expanders installed or
enrolled in the range of zones 17 through 160. This is because only zones 17 through 160 can be used for wireless.
2. Decide how many "total" wireless zones might be required for the job. This narrow down which table to concentrate on.
3. Consider existing or future M1XIN hardwired zone expanders. The wireless starting zone ID is critical if you want all wireless zones to be
sequential with no hardwired zones interspersed between them. The following are some suggested guidelines:
- If the job needs 16 hardwired zones or less with no plans for expansion then start the first wireless at zone 17 (associated with data bus
address 2). This leaves the most room for future wireless expansion all the way up to zone 160.
- If the job needs lots of hardwired zones and only a handful of wireless zones consider starting the M1XRF at a higher address, leaving room
for future hardwired expansion at the lower addresses.
4. Select any table below and start from the left column by choosing the total number of wireless zones required. Follow the row of cells across
to the bold column displaying the starting zone ID and associated data bus address where you wish to begin.
- Cells marked with "* *" indicate bus addresses "reserved" exclusively for wireless zones. However, any of these addresses may also be used
for a redundant M1XRF Receiver. Redundant Receivers provide additional range and coverage for extremely large or difficult buildings. See
Appendix C regarding Redundant Receivers.
- Cells marked "RRF" indicate bus addresses where ONLY a redundant M1XRF Receiver can be installed.
- Cells marked "H or RRF" indicate bus addresses where either a M1XIN Hardwired Expander OR a redundant M1XRF Receiver can be installed.
NOTE: An M1XRF installed for redundancy does not increase the number of wireless zones, it only increases
range and/or coverage.No RF Zones Here

Appendix D - Updating Firmware in the ELK-M1XRF
Operating firmware is stored in “Flash” memory. This state-of-the-art memory allows electronic field updates and eliminates
the old fashion method of changing IC chips or shipping boards back to the factory. As new firmware updates become avail-
able, they will be posted on ELK’s Dealer ONLY restricted website found at www.elkproducts.com. NOTE: Firmware updating
can only be done through the M1 Control using a Direct to PC Com port connection or an optional Ethernet Network connec-
tion. Dial-up connections cannot be used to perform firmware updates.
How to Update Firmware:
1. Physically connect the Computer and Control using either the RS-232 Serial Ports or the M1XEP Ethernet Interface.
3. Start ElkRP and open the account belonging to the control. Click on the Connection menu icon and establish a connection.
Again, use the appropriate Direct using Com_ OR Network options.
4. Click on Update/Verify Firmware from the Send/Rcv menu icon.
5. On the Update/Verify screen, select the device to be updated. In this case it is a Input Expander. Then also select the
“Update to new firmware” option. Then click Continue.
6. The Update Firmware screen displays the device name, the current Firmware, Hardware, and Bootware version, and a pull
down window for selecting the firmware version to use on the update. Select the appropriate firmware that you wish to use.
NOTE: All update (.bin) files that are downloaded or received should be stored in your ~Program Files\ElkRP\Updates
directory. This is where RP looks for all update files.
7. Click on the check box for “Update”. If “Reprogram” or “Rollback” is displayed the firmware file is the same as OR older that
what is in the control. Reprogramming with the same firmware is a waste of time but was included for factory testing
purposes. Rollback is not recommended except under the guidance of Elk Technical Support.
After the first M1XRF Receiver has been installed, additional receivers can be installed for redundancy or improved coverage
and range. Each addtional M1XRF will require its own data bus address and must be enrolled into the control. The data bus
address setting of any additional "redundant" M1XRF Receivers can be any unused data bus address except for addresses 13,
14, 15, 16.
NOTE: While M1XIN Expanders cannot be assigned to addresses overlapped by wireless zones this is not true for M1XRF
Receivers. From the example above, addresses 3, 4, and 5 could be used by additional "redundant" M1XRF Receivers. In
theory it is possible to install up to 11 total M1XRF Receivers onto a single M1 or M1EZ8 control, but only if there were NO
M1XIN Expanders installed.
* For large installations or added coverage in areas with poor wireless conditions, additional M1XRF "Redundant" Receivers can be connected to
the data bus. Redundant receivers must be addressed and enrolled for proper supervision. Loss of any enrolled bus device causes a Missing Bus
Device Trouble. NOTE: Redundant M1XRFs can be set to any of the unused addresses that fall in the total wireless zone number assignments.
