Good product, July 27, 2012

It took a while to figure out how to get this to work with my ADT system, which uses an Ademco Lynx Quick Connect touchpad. Of course, ADT never provided a programming manual for it. If you're trying to use the device with that system, here's the way to do it:1) Enter programming mode. Frequently this accomplished by pressing: 6321 800 *562) Enter the zone number. Zones for wireless key fobs start at 26 and go to 41. Each button on the fob gets a different zone. If you already have 1 key fob then chances are zones 26-29 are already taken, which was my case. So I started with zone 30. Press: 30* (star moves you to the next menu).3) Enter the "zone type." Some options are: 07 (audible alarm, i.e., panic), 20 (arm-stay), 21 (arm-away), 22 (disarm), 23 (no alarm response). For my arm-stay button, I pressed 20*.4) Enter the "report code." I made sure it displayed "10" (all I had to do was press 1). This was based on something I read in a tech...

This item arrived as per schedule. It works well, no issues. Like the shape of a car remote. Is very handy. Occasionally, need to press button 3 times. Price was 50% of he one avl with the home security company

Its all about convenience and getting multiple things done through the same device. I have set up one 5801 remote in addition to this 5834. Currently using 5834 only for the basic features like arm in stay and away mode and disarm but totally intend to program garage door open / close. Could program current functions in less than 10 minutes. Will update the review once other functions are programmed. For a few bucks more, this one is a better buy over 5801.
