M1EZ8 Security & Automation Control System

ELK-M1EZ8CB

M1EZ8 – Control Board Only

M1EZ8 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.

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.
