Honeywell ADEMCO 5839 User Manual

KEYPAD FEATURES
DISPLAY
The 5839 is a wireless keypad that allows you to perform the same functions as you can from a wired keypad, as
well as to display the status of your security system. The 5839 should be used as an auxiliary keypad in
addition to one or more wired keypads. It should not be used as the only or primary keypad.
KEYPAD KEYS
To access the keypad keys, simply open the swing-down door by applying outward pressure on the door release
slot on the right side. See Figure 1. The 12 keypad keys are located behind the protective door and are
continuously backlit for ease of use. See Figure 2. (Check the User's Guide that accompanies the control panel for
detailed instructions on the use of these keys.)
The function keys include keys for panic alarm activation. The panic alarms are activated by pressing key pairs
[1] & [✱], [3] & [#], or [✱] & [#], or a Special Function Key (see below). Whether these panic keys are functional
and the type of panic alarms they produce, is determined by the control panel's capability and programming.
(Check with your installer for the availability and assignment of these panic keys.)
SOUNDER
The keypad's built-in sounder pulses for fire alarms and sounds continuously for burglary and audible panic
alarms.
SPECIAL FUNCTION KEYS
These are four larger keys located to the left of the numeric keys (see Figure 2). The keys may be programmed
by your installer for panic alarms or other special functions such as single-button arming.
Special Function keys must be held down for at least 2 seconds to activate an alarm. (Check with your
installer for the programmed function of these keys.)

GENERAL OPERATION
To make sure the latest system status is displayed, press the [✱] key before and after entering each command.
HOW TO GET SYSTEM STATUS
Inactive Mode:
If the 5839 keypad is inactive (with a blank display), press any key (to activate), then press the [✱] key to
display present system status.
Active Mode:
In the active mode (connected to a hardwired 9V power pack), the display continuously displays the present
security system status. When the keypad is active and there is a change in system status (such as going from an
ARMED STAY to DISARMED), it may take up to 20 seconds for the display to automatically update the status
to show the status change. However, you can press the [✱] key to update the display immediately.
