In this video, Bryce teaches users about the Honeywell 5834-4 Key Fob. The 5834-4 has four buttons for controlling a security panel. It operates at 345 MHz, making it compatible with most Honeywell and 2GIG Panels. A user will often carry their 5834-4 with them to quickly arm or disarm their system.

Each function of the key fob will need to be programmed with its own key fob zone on the panel. Most users will program each of the four buttons with their own zone. The four most common actions for these buttons are disarming, arming away, arming stay and triggering an immediate panic. The key fob must be within range of the system for any command to go through successfully.

The four main buttons on the 5834-4 can be used for four different functions. However, the 5834-4 can also be programmed to perform four additional functions through multi-button presses. A multi-button press is activated by pressing and holding two buttons on the key fob at the same time. This allows for up to eight different system functions to be performed with a single 5834-4 Key Fob.

The 5834-4 Key Fob will show up as two different Serial Numbers on the system. The first Serial Number is for single-button presses, and the second serial number is for multi-button presses. Each individual input is assigned a Loop Number of 1 through 4. The Serial Number and the Loop Number will be used together to distinguish each programmed function.

Another feature for the 5834-4 Key Fob is its ability to operate in both high-security and standard-security modes. The difference between these two modes is that high-security mode uses rolling encryption to protect the device. In high-security mode, the LED light on the key fob will display red. In standard-security mode it will display green. To switch between these modes, press and hold the arm away, arm stay and panic buttons on the device for five seconds.

The key fob is powered by a 3V CR2032 lithium coin battery. It has an average battery life of 3 to 5 years. The device battery can be easily replaced by the end user when needed.
