Hello Everyone,
I'd like the announce the availability of ElkM1::Control, a set of Perl modules providing an API to communicate with the ElkM1. Currently it requires the Ethernet module and supports communication via both the secure and non-secure ports. In the future I hope to provide support for serial communications.
Much of the communication specification has been implemented, but there is much more to be done in the form of refinement, testing, debugging and documenting. I'd say it is still in the very early alpha stages, but is usable. I'd love to get some others involved in the project, so if you are interested in helping out please let me know. It's my hope that others find this package useful and that it will become the base of other applications which interface with the Elk.
The project is hosted at sourceforge. The URL to the project is:
