> 3 dayThe product is used by most pros. Installing it myslef was fun. Make sure you add a battery and, I suggest, add also EYEZ-ON EVL-3 which give capability to send you alerts (email and sms). Also suggest that you combine it with 6160 alpha keypad because you will need it to do all the needed programming.

> 3 dayI installed this system after researching and finding out my old ADT panel locked was a rebranded version of the vista 20p. I just labels my old wires then disconnected and reconnected everything back up and followed the programming instructions. I added more wireless sensors along with the 6150rf keypad to secure all my windows and doors!

> 3 dayOur Brinks system from 1998 lost 10-12 zones over the past 8 years. When we were down to the smoke detectors and just the front door I knew it was time to invest in a new system. At least we could update to 2022-wifi-phone-alert-app-ready-newness. But what do I do with the 142 hardwired sensors ran throughout my house that still work perfectly? And a wife and kids that are used to the 4 keypad panels we have at multiple entrance/exits? Enter the Vista 20P. Everything that I need from 1980 but just slightly newer. Even programming the sensors was something straight out of 1980. But it works. And every sensor works. And every zone works. No lost wifi signals... No dead batteries in sensors... Not a single problem (there was one). I had to add more boards to cover all of our zones wired in parallel and series. There is not enough room in the alarm panel for the extra boards? Weird. There is so much empty space under the main board. Adding extra boards is a complete afterthought and many people wire them outside of the locked alarm box and run wires in...that seems counterproductive to a security system...I removed the extra boards from the plastic cases they came in and CNCd some mounts for inside the box. Also got a DIN-rail and some Wagos. I can also add another board for wifi-internet-app access later but it will have to be mounted on the back of the door. The only thing that did not work, was a LiPo battery to use as a backup. I figured I updated the panel and rewired everything, I may as well add a fancy battery. As soon as I did that, the heatsink on the mainboard got uncomforatbly hot. 142 hardwired sensors, 4 smoke detectors, and 4 keypad panels and that thing was barely warm. Added a LiPo backup battery and that did it. Went back to the old one that I had for now. Panel comes with a new power supply and is straightforward to hookup and program. The average DIY person can tackle this. Do not be afraid.

> 3 dayGreat alarm panel and price. The only issue was no user manual for the customer. This was surprising as all other panels I have purchased in the past always had the user manual so the customer has something to reference to about using their new alarm system.
