Is RFK5501 compatible with PC5010? (old Power 832)

First off, thanks to all who help answer my questions, especially MrRonFL. Greatly appreciate the help.

I'm curious if a newer RFK5501 keypad with built in wireless will be compatible with my older PC5010 Power 832 panel. I found one cheap and was going to install the keypad rather than a plain receiver. Will they work together?

It is backward compatible. There are a few of the advanced features that don't work (like the thermostat interface that no one ever uses...).

20p not chiming/not sounding alpha descriptors

Capt_rescue on Jul 16, 2015

I'm new to all the alarm programming but I changed out an old panel board to a Rev.10.23 and installed an EnvisaLink3. Using a 6160VP for programming, but use 2- 6172c & 1- 6271cv keypads for everyday use. Everything is working fine, except I'm not getting chimes or audible descriptors when a door or window is opened. (Alpha descriptors have been programmed in). I'm thought my issue may be *26. I went back and put in *26 + 1 + 0. Nothing! Any suggestions?Read More
