Programming a Honeywell 5800CO Into an All-in-One Panel

In this video, Jorge covers the process for programming a Honeywell 5800CO into an all-in-one wireless panel. This is done by putting the panel into its wireless enrollment mode and then activating the 5800CO to learn it in. The panel must have a wireless receiver that accepts the 345 MHz frequency.

The Honeywell 5800CO is a standalone carbon monoxide detector that sends an immediate alert to the alarm control panel upon detecting unusually high levels of CO gas. The system will then know to trigger an immediate alarm and alert the central station if connected. A carbon monoxide alarm should be taken very seriously, and any building occupants should vacate the premises immediately. Even brief exposure to CO gas can be lethal. The gas is odorless and tasteless, which helps make it responsible for hundreds of deaths every year.

As a CO detector, the Honeywell 5800CO uses electrochemical detection technology to sense unusual levels of carbon monoxide gas. The sensor communicates at 345 MHz. This makes it compatible with most Honeywell and 2GIG Systems that have a functional wireless receiver. It can also be used with the Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Plus with Legacy Honeywell & 2GIG Daughtercard. If your system accepts signals at a frequency other than 345 MHz, then there are other CO detectors available.

Additionally, Honeywell also offers combination CO sensors that double as smoke and heat detectors. Most notably, there is the Honeywell 5800COMBO. The Honeywell 5800COMBO operates at the same wireless frequency as the 5800CO, but it includes smoke, heat and freeze detection, in addition to CO detection. Additionally, there's also the Honeywell SiXCOMBO, which is designed exclusively for use with the Honeywell Lyric Alarm System. The SiXCOMBO provides the same functions as the Honeywell 5800COMBO. But what's notable about the SiXCOMBO is that it communicates using 128-bit AES encryption for added wireless security.
