If I plan on using all wireless equipment, do I need a control panel with this keypad?

Yes you need an alarm control panel. The 6160RF is only a keypad/wireless receiver. It is hard wired to the alarm control panel and needs the control panel for power, and to process the signals that it receives. The alarm control panel is the "brains" of the system, and the keypad is your way of telling the panel what you want it to do.

Can i mix 6160 and 6160rf keypads with the ademco vista 20p? i would like to control my z-wave thermostat and use keyfobs to enter the home.

Yes, the Vista 20P control will support one 6160RF and up to seven additional 6160's. Be sure and watch your power supply load. The Vista 20P aux power output is rated at 600mA. A 6160RF uses 220mA and a 6160 uses 120mA. So be sure and add up your total load and add another power supply when needed.

What is the warranty on this keypad?

Honeywell's one year warranty only applies to products purchased through their distributor by an alarm dealer, and installed by that dealer. Our company warranties the product for one year from date of purchase through our store on Amazon.

please help me all i want to do is have a simple alarm system not ADT . i want gone so i purchase a vista 20 p panel and a 6160 key pad what to do ?

The 6160 is a alpha numeric keypad that wires directs to the vista 20 p panel. The panel can be hardwired to standard door/window contacts. Wireless contacts need an RF receiver. The wiring diagram is pretty simple.

Best keypad for Vista systems.

Just as advertised. No installation issues, but for the faint of heart, beware. You might have to program this to your panel. Mine came in preset to address 16 which is the primary position. I haven't used the RF function of this yet, but will try to remember to update this once I have done so. Although this panel worked perfect to allow me to program my new 20P panel, I would like to have a better feel to the buttons. Wiring is very simple and the color is marked on the pcb at the connection point. Just make sure the power is off when you make the connections so you don't short anything out, it's only low voltage so I did hook mine up with the panel live.

It works perfectly with my alarm system. It makes programming it easier and allows the expansion of the system by adding RF services.
