I have my Elk M1 system generate an e-mail whenever my HomeSeer system is not reachable for over 60 minutes. Here is how I did it.

- Create an output called "HS Conn Trouble" which is used to enable/disable alerting.
- Create an Elk M1 counter "hs_connect" used to track how long it has been since HomeSeer last reported a status.
- Create an Elk M1 rule that runs once per minute to subtract 1 from the hs_counter. This rule only runs when the "HS Conn Trouble" output create above is off.
- Create an Elk M1 rule that triggers an e-mail whenever the hs_connect counter reaches 0. It then resets the counter to 60.
- Create a HomeSeer event to set the hs_connect counter to 60.
