This sends a zt command to the Elk, which is documented as follows:

This command allows a 3rd party integration device to trigger an alarm condition on a EOL hardwired zone
defined with any of the Burglary zone types and many other zone types up to zone type 26. This command
creates a virtual momentary open condition on the zone as if the EOL hardwired loop had been physically opened.
This requires M1 Ver. 4.5.23, 5.1.23 or later.
NOTE: The zt command cannot create a virtual short condition and therefore cannot trigger an alarm
condition for zone types that require a short. E.G. Fire zone alarms cannot be triggered via this command.
