Honeywell VISTA-20P Ademco Control Panel, PCB in Aluminum Enclosure

Latest model, very good service

Install in all rentals as feature for tenants. The one piece of advice I’d give is to test it ASAP because I did have one board that had a bad sensor port. I had empty ports so it wasn’t a big deal, so I didn’t bother to exchange. There are great videos on line that show how to program. Setup isn’t as easy as ring or simpli but the end product is much much better and at a much lower cost.

Item is as expected.

A High quality system that is affordable. Install is not an easy DIY, but well worth the effort and research. The cost was less than $400.00. I used The 6160 Display and hard wired six magnetic sensors, one motion and one smoke detector. Programming was a little tough but after reading through the manual a few times and YouTube videos, I works fantastic.

bad panel. Hooked it up and just made clicks. dont buy

Note: there are 2 pictures on Amazon of this system. One shows it with the transformer: correct. The other shows it with the battery: not correct. You will need to buy a battery. I ordered our system from Alarm Liquidators, great price, fast shipping, got version 10.23, which supports the 6162 keypad menu programming. We love this system! We bought it to replace a proprietary system that we got tired of not having control over, especially when they remotely locked the panel and disarmed the alarm while we were on vacation! It was no trouble at all to replace: we just swapped out the panel, the keypads, and the horn. Programming is not super easy, but it is straightforward, and there are lots of Youtube videos out there that will walk you through the process. Also, the programming manual comes with the unit, and it is complete. I got a 6160RF keypad, and also a 6162RF. I mistakenly thought I wouldnt be able to easily program the system with the 6162, but thats not correct. The 6162 keypad is very nice looking. (Both are totally functional, however.) Now we can make any changes or repairs needed ourselves, at reasonable prices, and we can choose our own monitoring company, at good savings. There were no frustrations at all programming and hooking up this system. Others have mentioned: connect the resistor to Zone 1 before you power it up, or youll get a fire alarm, very noisy! Also, if you are replacing an existing panel, it would be helpful to label the wires as you pull them off, so you know whats connected to where.

ok

Works great

Broken seal, missing parts, box looked used, finger prints on cover and missing transformer.

Perfect!
