I have the garage door output all setup and can see the state and control the door in device stat. But I am now trying within a macro to send a message to close the garage door via the digital output. I am using:

ph_setotherdigitalout (ELKGOLD, 1, 1, 13, 1)

Where ELKGOLD is the ID of the controller, next is 1 for the type of output, 13 is the output I want to contol on the ELK relay board and the next 1 is the status to turn the relay on. But it will not work for me. Any ideas? Thank you.

Do you have quotes around ELKGOLD?

From the Help file...
Quote:
For use with the Elk M1 Gold, specify the ID of the Elk M1 controller. For the "Unit" and "Point" properties, the Elk M1 Gold supports two different numbering schemes. You can set the "unit" value to 0 and then set the "Point" value to the Elk logical point value. You can also set the "Unit" to the address of any external modules (use 0 for the on-board points) and the "Point" to the actual point value on the external board.
