5881ENH - Ademco Wireless Receiver

Great Item, I did work with my system. I wish it did as its what I am looking for.

Alarm system

I got this to replace an 8 channel Ademco Tx/Rx of the same type. This was a simple install, basically a plug and play with no issues whatsoever. Of course, the channels had to be adjusted, but once that was done, this works like a charm. I have no facts, but this SEEMS to have a bit longer range as I can use my key fob further from the house than I could with the older unit. Again, I did not measure it, it just seems to have greater spread of the signal.

worked well

I upgraded from the 5881ENL because I needed a 9th zone for adding another CO detector. I was hoping the upgrade would not require me to re-program my existing 8 wireless zones, and in fact I found that the former programming carried over completely and the only programming needed was to add the new zone. So that means all configuration data for the wireless zones is saved in memory on the Vista-20P and not in the 5881. As a result, the swap out took about 15 minutes.

Worked well for its intended purpose.
