1.1 SettingUptheM1XEP
BeforeanythingcanbesetupintheM1Z‐WaveGateway,thereisafewstepsyou
needtocheckandsetupintheM1XEP(EthernetModule).
1. OpenyourM1AccountinElkRP,andconnecttoyourpanelviatheM1XEP.


2. Onceconnected,fromthe‘accountsdetails’page,clickontheM1XEPSetup
button.

3. Selectthe‘TCP/IPSettings’tabandensureyouhavetheIPaddresssetasastatic

WhentheM1’sPIRtriggersthenturnaZ‐Wavelighton.




ThesceneiswrittenintheM1Z‐WavegatewayandnotintheM1.

Tocreateascene,clickontheScenefromthelistontheleft.

Forexample,ifyouwantaZ‐WavelighttoturnonwhenaM1lightturnson,thenyou
wouldneedtoselecttheM1Lightfromthislist.(Thisactsasa‘Whenever’trigger)



Clickon‘Adeviceisturnedonoroff’.

Choosethedeviceyouwanttocontrol.

ForExample,ifyouwanttheZ‐WavelighttoturnonwhentheM1lightturnsonthen
youwouldselecttheZ‐Wavedevicefromthelist.(Thisactsasa‘Then’trigger)

InmyexampleIwanttoturnaZ‐Wavelighton,soIwouldselecttheZ‐WaveLightfrom

Youcannowtestthisnewscenebyclickingonthe iconnexttothesceneyoujust
created,orsimplytriggeringtheM1functionwhichtriggerstheZ‐wavedevice.
Note,youmayneedtowaitapprox10secondsafterpressingthefinishbuttonfrom
above,whileitsavesthescenetoyourM1Z‐Wavegateway.

Ifyoucreatedascenetoturnthedeviceonthenyouwouldalsoneedtowriteanother
scenetoturnitoff.

ForExample,ifyoujustcreatedascenetoturnonaZ‐WavelightwhentheM1light
turnsonlike:
