11/13/2022 0 Comments Vista 20p keypads"Additional Power Supply" in alarm jargon means (1)an additional 16.5VAC 40VA transformer (2)the power supply PCB to convert the AC to 12VDC output, typically with at least 500mA capacity (1A or more would be better) and (3) a separate backup SLA (Sealed Lead Acid) backup battery like the one backing up your Vista-20P. Touchscreen keypads are fashionable and cool, but be aware that they are power hogs and may require an additional power supply at the control panel to incorporate them. You really only need one programming keypad, although the Alpha display (E.g., "FAULT FRONT DOOR") can be nice. You could replace the other 2 KPs with 6160s, or you could use 6150 KPs, which are "Fixed-English" KPs like your FA215s, that display zone numbers but no Alphanumeric descriptors. You didn't mention what features you want in your upgrade, but I'd recommend you get at least one Honeywell 6160 Alphanumeric Keypad with its 2-line display, which will give you full capability to program your panel (the Vista-20P). Those KPs would have originally been installed with a First Alert control panel, rather then the Honeywell Vista-20P panel you now have, so I'm guessing they're kind of old now. So from the first sentence (if I've separated them correctly), I gather you'd like to upgrade one or more of your FA215 Keypads. I have 3 FA215 keypads and I would like to upgrade at least one. TRizzi, it really helps me understand a post if it has standard punctuation, so I don't have to go over it several times to separate out the sentences and phrases to see what goes together.
