USER GUIDE 
 
GENERAL INFORMATION 
The ADEMCO 5828 and 5828V are wireless keypads 
that can be used to operate and get status from your 
security system. The 5828 and 5828V have the 
following features (voice annunciation features apply 
only to the 5828V): 
• Can be used to arm/disarm, and perform other 
system operations. 
• Can display and/or annunciate system status.  
• Can automatically display and/or annunciate a 
change in system status if AC powered (e.g., for an 
alarm, the keypad will announce the type of alarm 
(fire or burglary) and location (e.g. kitchen window). 
• The 5828V Message Center can be used to record 
and play back a voice memo to yourself, or leave a 
message for a family member. 
• Can be battery- or AC-powered (AC-powered units 
have several advantages, described below). 
Battery-Powered Operation:  When powered by 
battery, the keypad must first be activated by pressing 
any numbered key.  The keypad will display the current 
system status within a few seconds.  You may at any 
time before or after receiving status, arm, disarm, send 
a panic alarm, or perform other system operations.  The 
keypad becomes inactive when no keys have been 
pressed for 15 seconds, and must be reactivated to 
display the current status. 
AC-Powered Operation: When powered by the 
optional AC adapter, the keypad remains active at all 
times.  If AC power is lost, the keypad reverts to 
battery-powered operation until AC power is restored 
and a new status request is made ([✱] key). 
NOTE:  Whether the unit is powered by battery or AC, 
the 5828/5828V may take a few seconds to display 
and/or annunciate the new status after pressing the [✱] 
key.

5828V Keypad with Front Cover Removed KEYPAD KEYS 
These keypads include 12-operational keys, as well as 
four Special Function keys that are backlit for ease of 
use when the keypad is active. To access the keypad 
keys, simply open the swing-down door by applying 
outward pressure on the door release slot on the right 
side.  
Panic alarms are activated by pressing the key pairs 
shown in the table below.  Special Function keys A, B, 
and C, can be programmed by your installer to provide 
the same alarms by pressing a single key and holding it 
down for 3-seconds, or can be assigned other system 
operations. (Ask your installer to fill in the tables below 
with assigned functions of these keys).

SOUNDER 
The keypad’s built-in sounder pulses three times and 
then pauses (repeatedly) for fire alarms, and generates 
a continuous two-tone sound for burglary alarms. 
HOW TO GET SYSTEM STATUS 
When Powered By Battery 
Pressing any key will turn on the keypad.  However, to 
specifically request system status from the control, 
simply press the [✱] key. Status will be displayed 
within a few seconds. 
When Powered By AC Power 
On AC powered units you can get the status by viewing 
the display. The keypad is automatically updated when 
a change in system status takes place (arming, 
disarming, trouble, etc.).   
HOW TO PROGRAM OR CHANGE YOUR 4-DIGIT 
SECURITY CODE IF USING QUICK KEY FUNCTIONS 
In order to Quick Arm the system using this keypad, 
you will need to program your own 4-digit security code 
into the keypad. This code must match a code that has 
already been programmed into your control panel. To 
program the 4-digit code, perform the following steps: 
1. Press the 7 INSTANT
 and 9 CHIME keys at the 
same time until the display flashes double dashes   
(- -), then release.  
2. Enter the 4-digit security code that matches a valid 
user code already programmed into your control 
panel. Do NOT use the Duress Code.  There will be 
no display of the numbers you pressed.

New message indication: If powered by battery, the

keypad by requesting status.  If powered by AC, the 
Message LED will blink continuously.  Once the 
message is played back, the LED will no longer blink. 
NOTE: If using a LYNX control, and the word 
“MESSAGE” is announced at the 5828V keypad, it 
means that there is a message waiting at the control 
panel, which can only be retrieved using the LYNX 
keypad. 
MESSAGE CENTER NOTES  
• Allow any alarm system status annunciation to 
complete before starting to record your message. 
• Messages up to 20-seconds long may be recorded and 
played back at any time.  
• When messages are first recorded, the red message 
LED will continuously flash to show that a new 
message is contained in the message center memory. 
Once that message is played back, the LED will no 
longer flash but the message is retained until a new 
message is recorded over it. 
• A status announcement will interrupt the recording 
or playback of a message. If this happens, begin 
recording or playing the message back again. 
If you Mute system status announcements for any 
reason, you must Restore system status 
announcements by pressing the keys indicated in the 
“MESSAGE CENTER” table (above) in order to hear 
them again. They will not restore on their own.  • Recording a message or playing back a stored 
message is NOT affected by muting. 
• If you adjust the volume (3↑ or 6↓) when you play 
back a message, and still want system status 
announcements to be muted, you must again mute 
system status announcements (# + 2 + 1 for Lynx 
panels or # + 0 + 2 + 1 for VISTA panels). 
HOW TO REPLACE THE BATTERIES 
1. If the keypad is AC powered, unplug the AC 
transformer from the wall outlet. 
2. If the keypad is not wall mounted advance to step 3. 
If the keypad is wall mounted, perform the 
following:  
Grasp the keypad firmly. Lift straight up (about 1/4 
inch) and then out, to separate the keypad from the 
mounting plate. This exposes the covered battery 
compartment on the backside of the keypad. 
3. Rest the inverted keypad on a non-abrasive surface 
and remove the battery compartment cover.  Remove 
the old batteries and properly discard. 
4. Replace the old batteries with 3 AA, 1.5 Volt, 
Alkaline batteries (ADEMCO part number 468 or 
equivalent).  Always replace all three batteries at 
once to ensure normal operation of the keypad over 
the anticipated battery lifetime. Make sure that 
battery positive (+) and negative (–) terminals are 
properly oriented with the battery spring clip 
connections.  Refer to battery placement graphic 
below.
