Chip version is 10.24 (Latest update 3/8/2023) Review: Works very well as a residential alarm panel coupled with hard wired contacts. Add an RF Keypad (6160RF) and benefit from wireless contacts if you don't want to run wires or it is too difficult to run wires in your application. Review: After my second home was broken into, and the front door left open for who knows how long, I decided I wanted an alarm. After much research, and not wanting to deal with contracts, salesmen and high monthly fees, I ended up with this panel and a totally expandable professional system that texts me when the alarm is disarmed, armed, fire, trouble, flood, and of course if a break-in occurs. The basics of the system are the 20P panel, the 15P would be fine for most,unless you have more than six wired zones, the EVL-4 Eyezon IP communicator, which requires a hardwired connection to the router, and mounts inside the cabinet, 12 volt back up battery, required as it drives the siren as well as power failure back-up, siren, and don't go for anything less than the 6160RF keypad. The RF denotes that the keypad is capable of receiving and transmitting to wireless devices. Even if you don't think you'll want or need wireless, once you read up and see all the endless possibilities of the wireless devices and sensors, you'll be glad you spent the little extra to go RF. If you don't own a drill, wire strippers, or maybe even a soldering iron, and willing to roll up your sleeves and learn a little about all the well thought out and time proven nuances and actually read the manual-then this is probably not the system for you. Just looking at the manual and all the options are a bit overwhelming, but once you dig in, only a few of the actual programming prompts need to be changed. Each zone needs to be told how to react to the sensor, but just read and check out a few youtube videos. You don't need to be a computer programmer or rocket scientist-Just be willing to invest a little time and energy during the install, and you won't need to touch it again unless you want to do some upgrades and enhancements, which I'm sure most techie types will be fascinated by the possibilities. I'm working to install an electric water valve in the main water line, so the water is shut off when armed in away mode-no flood worries! ## Features - manufacturer: Honeywell - Item Trademark: HONEYWELL - Item Category: Security System ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000H05W9C | | ASIN | B000H05W9C | | Alert Type | Audio Only, Motion Only | | Best Sellers Rank | #238,939 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #403 in Home Alarm Systems | | Brand | Honeywell | | Built-In Media | Keypad | | Color | aluminum enclosure | | Compatible Devices | Personal Computer | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (440) | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (440) | | Date First Available | 9 August 2012 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Dimensions | 33 x 7.6 x 38.1 centimeters | | Item model number | VISTA-20P | | Manufacturer | Honeywell Ademco | | Manufacturer | Honeywell Ademco | | Mfr Part Number | VISTA-20P | | Model Number | VISTA-20P | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 33.02 x 7.62 x 38.1 cm; 3.38 kg | | UPC | 781410417571 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Honeywell - **Colour:** aluminum enclosure - **Compatible devices:** Personal Computer - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 33 x 7.6 x 38.1 centimeters - **Power source:** Corded Electric ## Images ![VISTA-20P Ademco Control Panel, PCB in Aluminum Enclosure - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-Y08QXRTL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this system support the envisalink evl-4?** A: Yes, it installs as a keypad (power from cabinet and a couple of data lines). You will have to devise your own mounting or (measure and) drill an odd hole pattern. I mounted the EVL-4 to a small piece of plastic with the included standoffs, then attached the plastic to the back of the cabinet with a couple of screws. I replace my old vista 15 with the vista 20p, used zone doubling, added a wireless receiver/alpha keypad, and added the evl-4 all at once. In retrospect, I would get the panel working and programmed prior to adding the envisalink. Once I'm through testing, my next step is to add their monitoring service. **Q: Is the Vista 20-P RF capable out of the box? Can I add wireless motion detectors or do I need 2 buy additional wireless module first?** A: You have quite a few options: Install a 6160RF Keypad (alpha which is zone description read out), 6150RF (no zone description but has RF) You must be aware that a 6150RF has a medium receiver and a 6160RF has a high receiver and this means the 6150RF will allow 16 zones whereas the 6160RF will allow the max number of zones your panel can support. If you install a 6150RF and you try to place 17 wireless zones you will get an error. You can also do standalone receivers such as the 5881ENL (low range adds 8 wireless zones), 5881ENM (16 zones), 5881ENH (high range based on your panels max wireless zones) all of which can be used on a V15P, V20P, V32FB, V128BPT etc.. There is a 5881ENHC which is used in commercial applications. I own an alarm company and we buy our panels here because they are cheaper than our distributor. **Q: What battery do I need to use (voltage, amp hours...)?** A: The Vista20P uses a rechargeable 12 volt dc 4 amp hour battery.The 12vdc 5 amp hour or 12vdc 7 amp hour batteries can also be used.The larger amp hour rated batteries last longer during a power outage.Hope this helps. **Q: Does this come with a power supply and/or battery or do I have to buy those seperately** A: The power supply is right on the same circuit board as the alarm board. See the large heat sink? That is the power supply my friend. Power transformer to power it but no backup battery as size of battery is the installer's choice. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by G***N on 10 July 2024* Works very well as a residential alarm panel coupled with hard wired contacts.

It was 25 years old anyway. I wanted to keep my existing wired sensors including C0 detector but I also wanted to be able to expand the system by adding zones. The Vista 20 P was just the thing. I was able to replace the old Brinks BHS3000 system by simply swapping the boards within the enclosure. Yes they were the exact same housings. This kept me from having to pull back all the wiring and feed them into the new enclosure. This allowed me to simply disconnect each wire, one at a time, and re land it on the Honeywell board. Took me a total of 20 min. For good measure the enclosure door was a perfect swap so all the labels are correct. That was the easy part.... Then came programming. With the included manual and quite a bit of help from YouTube, the system is now working. It takes a bit of patience to learn how to read the manual. The YouTube videos provided a great deal of clarity. I used a 6160RF key pad to allow for wireless sensor expansion and remote key fob use. After About three hours I had it working at least as well as my old system. There are some tricks to it like in zone 1 you have to use one of the included terminating resistors if you plan to use it for a door or window switch. Also if you want the zone chime to work on the doors or windows only, you have to create a “Zone List” which has to be Zone List #03. Spent at least an hour figuring that one out. Wouldn’t have put so much time into that one item but my wife and kids like having the door chimes. Bottom line is the system upgrade cost me approx $140 with one keypad (I’ll be adding more later) and it was actually more capable than what I had expected. Keep in mind it’s designed for a professional installer so don’t expect plug-and-play but once it’s up and running it’s a solid, scaleable system. I’ll write more as I take advantage of the features. ## Frequently Bought Together - Honeywell VISTA-20P Ademco Control Panel, PCB in Aluminum Enclosure - Honeywell Security 6160 Ademco Alpha Display Keypad - Honeywell 6160RF Custom Alpha Integrated Keyboard/Transeiver --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/340630063-vista-20p-ademco-control-panel-pcb-in-aluminum-enclosure](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/340630063-vista-20p-ademco-control-panel-pcb-in-aluminum-enclosure) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
