OVERVIEW
The "TW" model of the ELK-M1XRF Wireless RF Receiver (part # ELKM1XRFTW) allows an ELK-M1 and ELK-M1EZ8
Controls to accept Elk's complete line of Two-Way Wireless Sensors. Refer to the list of available transmitters in this manual.
Including this new Elk Two-Way Receiver, Elk now produces three (3) different models of wireless receivers for the M1 Control.
One is for Elk sensors (M1XRFTW), one is for GE sensors (M1XRF2G), and one is for Honeywell sensors (M1XRF2H).
Regardless of the receiver model, they each attach directly to the M1 via the four (4) wire Keypad Data Bus. And they enroll
and integrate in much the same way as a hardwired zone expander, with the exception that a single M1XRF can handle up
to 144 wireless Sensors/Zones. The benefits of operating from the data bus are: 1) Receiver(s) do not have to be installed
adjacent to the control, rather they 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 greater coverage as well as redundancy. Utilizing 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 Elk Receivers is that all transmitter serial numbers and setup information is stored in the control panel
rather than in the receiver(s). There are two advantages of this: 1) Sensors need only be enrolled one time, yet they can
be received by any compatible format "redundant" receiver in the building. This is especially great for coverage of portable
Keychain (FOB) Remotes. 2) Should a receiver ever become damaged or need replacement it will not be necessary to re-
enroll the transmitters. Simply replace the receiver and perform a data bus enrollment of the receiver to the control panel.
IMPORTANT NOTE - THE BRAND OF TRANSMITTERS INSTALLED MUST BE MATCHED TO THE CORRECT RECEIVER.
Receiver brands can be mixed on a single M1 Control, allowing a mixture of transmitter brands. While this is
great for takeover situations, extreme care must be taken to assure that each transmitter is within range of it's
respective receiver model. In other words, the receiver/transmitters are physically and electronically different
and are only compatible within their own brands.
Page 4 M1XRFTW Installation Manual
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! Mount at least 10 feet
away from any electrical device that generates noise including the M1 Control. Electrical noise can and 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 con-
nections of data bus devices with multiple homerun cables.
3. Antenna - The M1XRFTW uses a single on-board ceramic antenna. There is no external antenna re-
quired.
DIAGNOSTIC LED INDICATORS:
There a four (4) LEDs on the board that provide valuable information as to the operation of the M1XRF:
STATUS (Data Bus Status) - Multiple conditions exist for this LED:
OFF = No Power to the M1XRF
ON Solid = Power is good but it is not yet enrolled with the M1 or the Microprocessor is not functioning.
BLINKING = 2 different blink rates:
- Slow "one blink per second" indicates Normal Operating mode.
- Rapid "two quick blinks with a brief off time" indicated the Receiver is in Bootloader mode, indicating it has
not yet been flashed with application firmware. This should only occur if you are field updating the unit.
It will not be operational until application firmware has been flashed into the unit using ElkRP.
LEARNED RF - 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.
ALL RF - This LED blinks whenever ANY Elk RF transmitter is heard or detected.
DATA BUS ACTIVE - This LED blinks near continuously and indicated activity on the M1 Data Bus.

Setting the M1XRF Data Bus Address and the Starting Wireless Zone ID
Every device on the M1 RS-485 4-wire data bus must have a valid address setting (from 1 to 15) within it's device type.
TYPE 1 is for Keypads, TYPE 2 is for Hardwire and Wireless Input expanders, TYPE 3 is for Output expanders, TYPE 4 is
for Serial expanders. 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!
Since Hardwire and Wireless expanders share 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) A single M1XRF Receiver can add up to 144 wireless zones to the control. These are assigned in groups of 16 at a time.
One stipulation is that 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. If any hardwired zone expanders are enrolled in the range of
zones 17 through 160 you lose one entire group of 16 wireless zones for every hardwired (16 zone) expander installed.
2) For added range and coverage redundancy multiple "like branded" M1XRF Wireless Receivers can be installed on the
bus. Redundant receivers can be assigned to any unused data bus address as long as it doesn't conflict with another
Type 2 device.
NOTE: The data bus address of an M1XRF Receiver does not inherently set starting wireless zone number. Even so,
Elk strongly encourages Installers to set the data bus address of the first M1XRF Receiver to the starting zone ID as
depicted in Tables 1-1 and 1-2. While the actual data bus address of the M1XRF could be address 10 and the first
group of 16 wireless zones could be programmed as 17-32, the disadvantages of doing this are potential zone
numbering conflicts when M1XIN Hardwired Zones Expanders exist.
Other important considerations when installing an M1XRF:
a) Although wireless zones are allocated in Groups with a minimum number of 16 zones each, you are not required to
utilize all 16 of the zones in each group.
b) Care must be taken to ensure that wireless zones NEVER spill over into data bus addresses already assigned to a
M1XIN Hardwired Zone Expander, or 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 can be seen that zones 17 to 31 are associated with data bus address 2. 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.

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.

process must be used to add a new transmitter, after which this location will be set to Yes.
Supervision type sets the expected check-in interval of a sensor. KeyChain Remotes (Fobs)
or devices which may leave the building program set this "0" = non supervised. Burglar
Sensors should have this option set as "1"=Normal Supervision. Fire Sensors should have
this option set as "3" = HI Supervision. See receiver selections R02 and R03 for supervision
time values. Valid values are: 0, 1, or 3 Factory default setting is 1 (Normal Supervision).
Pertains only to certain types of Transmitters. For KeyChain Remotes setting this option to
Yes converts buttons 1,2,3,4 to be instead buttons 5,6,7,8. Default is No. See list of
compatible Transmitters to determine which (if any) transmitters use this option.
Pertains to transmitters with Ext. contact terminals. Setting this 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 which will be logged when a Keychain Remote 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 used. If set to Yes the zone is auto-restored to normal in 8 seconds with no restoral
signal from the transmitter.

Select the zone to enroll 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. Insert the batteyr or press the tamper button, etc. If successful the
keypad will chime and M1 will speak: "[Zone Name] Enrollment."
Displays the zone number and ID of the enrolled transmitter. NOTE: After a new transmitter is
enrolled this display advances to the next zone number and the M1 speaks "Press Transmit-
ter Button for Zone xxx." This permits rapid enrollment of additional transmitters in sequential
order. When enrollment is complete press the ELK key twice to exit the enrollment.
IMPORTANT! To delete or replace an existing transmitter navigate to transmitter option
"WZnxxx 01" and select "No". This will disable the existing transmitter.
Pressing the LEFT arrow marked "HW" at step 3a will produce display 3d. The left number
represents the transmitter ID in decimal notation. Press the RIGHT arrow key to move cursor
over to Loop. For most Elk transmitters the Loop should automatically be set to "0". However,
for a sensor that offers both an internal reed switch PLUS external inputs for an external
contact the Loop would need to be changed to "1" in order for the external contact to be
functional.

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.
