The 5828V wireless talking keypad is an upgraded version of the 5828 wireless keypad, an essential component to the Honeywell 5800-Series compatible control panels. A perfect add-on to any LYNX or VISTA system, the 5828 wireless keypad saves valuable time by offering the quickest, easiest installation of a secondary keypad. The 5828V is easy and inexpensive to install, with no wires to run. It mounts anywhere; on walls, tabletops and counters and provides the flexibility and convenience of operating the system from anywhere in the home.
The 5828V also speaks system status and zone information in plain English, and homeowners can use the built-in family message center to record and play back voice messages. This keypad provides full system functionality which allows you to install your control panel in a secure location away from your main entrance. Whenever can press the "Status" button on the keypad, it will display the current system status of your home security system. Also, if there is an open zone on your system when you attempt to arm it, the keypad will display the description of the faulty zone so that you can close the open door or window. For the most complete security system, we recommend installing the control panel in a secure, somewhat hidden location near an AC outlet and broadband internet connection, and also installing a 5828V or 5828 wireless keypad at every entrance to your home or business. This type of installation will greatly reduce any chance of a criminal defeating your security system.
The 5828V operates on (3) AA batteries which last an average of 2 years. The keypad will go into "sleep" mode whenever it is inactive for an extended period. Simply touch any button on the keypad to wake it up. You also have the option of adding the desk mount with the AC adaptor using the dropdown above. The desk mount allows you to attractively display your keypad on a desk or nightstand. The adaptor allows you to plug in your keypad so that it is always on. Of course you must have an open AC plug near where you will install your 5828V for this "always on" feature.
