Honeywell 5834 4 Key Fob Basics

In this video, Dylan shows users the basic operation of the Honeywell 5834-4 Key Fob. The device has four buttons, and it operates at 345 MHz. This makes compatible with most Honeywell and 2GIG Alarm Systems. Overall, the Honeywell 5834-4 provides users a quick way to arm and disarm an alarm system.

When programming a 5834-4 Key Fob, each individual input will require its own wireless zone on the security system. Typically, a user will provide one zone for each button on the key fob. There are identifiable buttons for disarming, arming away, arming stay and triggering a panic alert. A user can send a command by pressing and holding the corresponding button while they are within the signal range of the system.

It is possible to set up different functions for the buttons on the key fob if desired. Also, the device also allows a user to program four additional functions through the use of multi-button presses. To activate a multi-button press, a user must press and hold two buttons on the key fob at the same time. Up to eight different functions can be programmed for the key fob using single and multiple button inputs.

When programming the 5834-4, the device will show up as two different Serial Numbers on the alarm system. The first Serial Number is associated with all single button activations, while the second Serial Number corresponds to the multiple button inputs. Then, each input is associated with a Loop Number ranging between 1 and 4. By using the Serial Number and Loop Number together, each individual command can be uniquely identified.

The 5834-4 also has the ability to operate in both high-security and standard-security. The difference between these modes is that is that the high-security mode operates using rolling encryption to prevent the 5834-4 from being taken over by hackers. High-security mode can be identified by the key fob LED light flashing red when an input is made. In standard-security mode, the LED light will flash green. A user can switch between these modes by pressing and holding the arm away, arm stay and panic buttons on the 5834-4 for five seconds.
