you wont be able to without a programming keypad and programming sheets and knowing where the old one was programmed at.
may beee
if your panel is monitored by an alarm company call them to program it for you..

Ahhhhhhhh, another E-bay victim.............. :-))
Thanks Crash for the info. When I bought the replacement 5804 I suspected that a house call would likely be required from my monitoring service, but hoped some Guru somwhere might give me a keypad alternative. But the replacement unit from third party plus the house visit still saves me $40 over buying replacement from my service. It all should be fixed by end of day tomorrow.
YW. If you truly end up saving a few buck that's great. If the fob fails or is bad...well that's the chance you take...but hey I'd do the same thing :-) : Save money where I can, stop when I know I can't do something properly.
Crash, Surprising ending to this little job. Security guy showed up and added my EBAY 5804 remote to my FA162C system. He brought in a FA unit to hook up and then said it was not required. He said the unit I had installed as my primary keypad allowed him to add the remote directly from the keypad. So my original assumption was OK. A keypad based reconfig was possible. Only problem, I could not find any directions on how to do it. Anyway still got the savings. I wish I had a complete set of installation instructions for this unit for the future. If someone does, please give me a link.
Hey..that's a good surprise.
