Honeywell Security 6160 Ademco Alpha Display Keypad

Good alarm for the price. It is not easy to install. I had to call a contractor to installed. Even though I saved in the alarm cost buying it here.

This keypad has been in service for a couple weeks now. Its still working good and was really easy to set up with my Vista 20 alarm panel

easy to install

Install and addressing it was a breeze. I have 2-6150 keypads. One is an RF. I changed out the non-RF one at the garage entry door that we use all the time with the 6160. I left the 6150-RF in the master bedroom that really never gets used. But I need it for some wireless sensors. I did some programming on the 6160 and it was a lot easier to see what step your at. 6150 was a pain. The 6160 keypad is a little bigger and so is the LED screen which is nice. Seems a little brighter too. It is a lot quieter then the 6150 that was annoying loud. You can muffle the 6160 if you want by putting some folded up paper towel in front of the speaker on the inside. YouTube is very helpful about that and also programming it. I highly recommend getting this if you have the 6150 keypad. Real nice upgrade.

My expectations were met

Worked fine

A nightmare for the DIY er. WAAAAY too complicated!!!!!!!!!

This box is needed for programming most Honeywell security systems and works fine. Nothing has changed about this keypad for 20+ years. Its not hard for program if you read the instructions and are moderately good with electronics.

Perfect replacement for my old 6150

Did not block calls as advertised
