Honeywell 5834 is a 4-button key fob generally used to remote arm and disarm your home security system. In this video we will show you detailed instructions on how to program the key fob to the Honeywell L5210 control panel.

The key fob has 4 buttons that can be programmed to 8 different functions, utilizing single and double key presses. Each button, or combination of two button simultaneous presses can be programmed in to the system. Follow the video to learn how.

As the video will discuss in detail, out of the box the key fob is ready to be installed. Each key press will require a 3-second press and hold. To test the battery out of the box, press any button for 3 seconds and you will see the LED light illuminate.

The flashing Led will vary between red and green. When it flashes red it means the key fob is in high security mode. Green flashing means low security mode. Honeywell has started shipping all key fobs defaulted with high security mode.

If you have an older version, or other factor that makes the LED light flash green, you need to put the key fob in high security mode. This second part of out two part video will assume you have your key fob in high security mode.

To set up your Honeywell L5210 control panel to communicate with the high security key fob you need to enable it to scan for the encrypted signal. This video will show you how to do just that.

On the Honeywell L5210 control panel access the Tools menu using your installer code. The video will show you how to get to the Tools menu from the home screen. From the Tools menu you need to press “Test” followed by the “Go-No-Go” option. This will put the control panel in testing mode.

The next step outlined in the video is to pair the key fob to the control panel. You pair the device by pressing and holding the three buttons on the key fob for 5 seconds. These are the top two buttons (Arm away and disarm) as well as the bottom left button (home stay).

The video will further discuss the options for the key fob once you have tested that it communicates with the control panel. You can change the audible arm away and disarm alerts if you need to. The video will discuss these options in detail.
