Install Guide
Versa's 345 MHz sensors are compatible with the Honeywell VISTA 20P — through its 5800-series receiver, no panel swap.
Looking for wireless sensors that work with the Honeywell VISTA 20P? The Versa Wireless MINI-345 door/window contact and PIR-DUAL motion detector both run at 345 MHz on the Honeywell 5800-series protocol, so they enroll on a VISTA 20P that has a 5800-series RF receiver — the same receiver your 5800MINI and 5816 sensors already use. The MINI-345 is a direct drop-in for the 5800MINI/5816. This guide gives the exact enrollment steps for the VISTA 20P, plus the Honeywell Lyric Controller, Resideo PROA7/PROA7PLUS, and 2GIG EDGE.
Which Versa wireless sensors work with the Honeywell VISTA 20P?
Any Versa 345 MHz sensor enrolls on a VISTA 20P equipped with a 5800-series RF receiver (5881ENH, 5883H, or a 6160RF keypad), because they use the same Honeywell 5800-series protocol your existing sensors do:
- MINI-345 — wireless door/window contact; a direct drop-in for the Honeywell 5800MINI and 5816 (Loop 1).
- PIR-DUAL — pet-immune wireless PIR motion detector (set to its 345 MHz mode) for VISTA 20P motion zones.
That means you can cover doors, windows, and motion on a VISTA 20P from one 345 MHz Versa line — no panel replacement, no second frequency. Door/window enrollment is detailed below; the same *56 Supervised RF procedure applies to the PIR-DUAL (using its motion loop).
Is the MINI-345 compatible with the VISTA 20P, Lyric, PROA7 & 2GIG EDGE?
Yes. The Versa MINI-345 is a 345 MHz door/window contact that uses the Honeywell 5800-series protocol, so it enrolls on any panel that accepts 5800-series wireless sensors. Here is exactly what each of the four most common 345 MHz panels needs:
-
Honeywell VISTA 20P — compatible with a 5800-series RF receiver installed (5881ENH, 5883H, or a 6160RF keypad). Enrolls on Loop 1 via
*56zone programming. - Honeywell Lyric Controller — compatible natively. The Lyric has a built-in 5800-series 345 MHz receiver, so the MINI-345 enrolls directly with no extra module — like the 2GIG EDGE.
- Resideo PROA7 / PROA7PLUS — compatible with the PROTAKEOVER module, rotary switch set to 0 (5800). The module adds 345 MHz reception alongside the panel's built-in PROSiX/SiX receiver; sensors are programmed in AlarmNet 360.
- 2GIG EDGE — compatible natively. The EDGE has a built-in 345 MHz receiver, so no extra module is required.
On all four panels the MINI-345 uses Loop 1 for the magnetic contact and is a direct drop-in for the Honeywell 5800MINI, 5816, and similar 345 MHz sensors. Step-by-step enrollment for each panel is below.
Honeywell VISTA 20P
What You Need
- VISTA 20P with a compatible 5800-series RF receiver installed (5881ENH, 5883H, 6160RF, or similar)
- Installer code (factory default:
4112) - MINI-345 7-digit serial number (from label inside sensor cover)
- Alpha keypad (6160 or similar) for entering zone descriptors
About wireless zones on the VISTA 20P
The VISTA 20P supports up to 40 wireless transmitter zones (zones 9–48) through an external 5800-series receiver. Each sensor is identified by its unique 7-digit serial number and loop number. The MINI-345 magnetic contact uses Loop 1.
Programming uses *56 Zone Programming Mode (interactive, keypad-guided). The full data field reference is in the VISTA 20P Programming Guide, which is separate from the Installation Guide.
Enter Programming Mode
At the keypad, press your installer code followed by *56:
4112 *56
The keypad will display PROGRAM MODE and prompt you to enter a zone number.
Select the Zone Number
Enter a 2-digit zone number between 09 and 48 (wireless zone range on the VISTA 20P), then press [*]. Choose a zone that isn't already assigned to another sensor.
Set Input Type: Supervised RF
At the INPUT TYPE prompt, press [0] then [3] to select Supervised RF (3). Press [*] to advance. This tells the panel to expect a wireless transmitter and enables the serial number and loop fields.
Enter the Serial Number
Type the full 7-digit serial number from the MINI-345 label. Press [*]. Double-check this number — a single wrong digit means the panel won't recognize the sensor's transmissions.
Enter Loop Number 1
At the loop prompt, press [1], then [*]. Loop 1 is the magnetic contact input — the zone that triggers when the door or window opens.
Set Zone Type
Enter the appropriate 2-digit zone type for this sensor's location:
- 04 — Entry/Exit 1 (primary entry door with entry delay)
- 05 — Entry/Exit 2 (secondary door, longer delay)
- 03 — Perimeter (instant alarm — windows, back doors)
Press [*].
Enter a Zone Descriptor (Optional)
On an alpha keypad, type a label for this zone (e.g., FRONT DOOR, GARAGE DR). This displays on the keypad during alerts. Press [*] to save.
Exit Programming Mode
Press *99 to exit *56 mode and return the panel to normal operation.
Verify enrollment with RF Sniffer mode
Confirm the sensor's serial number is enrolled and transmitting:
- From a partition-1 keypad, enter
Installer Code + [#] + [3](e.g.,4112 #3) to enter RF Sniffer mode. - Open and close the door or window with the MINI-345 installed.
- Sniffer mode checks that each enrolled transmitter's serial number has been received; when the MINI-345 reports, its zone clears from the not-yet-seen list.
- Sniffer mode does not time out — exit by entering
Installer Code + OFF(e.g.,4112 + OFF) to return to normal operation.
Installer Code + [#] + [4] (e.g., 4112 #4). This mode reduces the receiver's gain, so if the panel still receives the MINI-345 when you trip it, you have enough signal strength to mount there. Exit with Installer Code + OFF.Resideo PROA7 / PROA7PLUS
What You Need
- PROA7 or PROA7PLUS control panel
- PROTAKEOVER wireless converter module — rotary switch set to 0 (5800); install the replacement wall mount with integrated antenna that ships with it
- AlarmNet 360 account (AlarmNet 360 login)
- MINI-345 7-digit serial number
- Laptop, tablet, or phone with internet access
About programming on the PROA7
Unlike the VISTA 20P, the PROA7 has no local keypad programming mode for sensors. All zone configuration is done through AlarmNet 360 — Resideo's cloud-based programming portal — and syncs automatically with every change. The panel supports up to 250 total wireless zones (up to 127 of which can be PROSiX/SiX); the 5800-series sensors received through the PROTAKEOVER share that same zone pool.
Log into AlarmNet 360
On a laptop, tablet, or phone, go to AlarmNet 360 or open the AlarmNet 360 app. Open the customer's account.
Navigate to Zones / Sensors
From the account programming menu, select Devices or Zones, then choose an available zone slot.
Put the Panel Into Learn Mode
In AlarmNet 360, select Learn Mode for the zone you're programming. The panel is now listening for a new sensor's RF transmission.
Enroll the MINI-345
Open and close the door or window where the MINI-345 is installed. The panel receives the RF signal and captures the serial number automatically. Alternatively, enter the 7-digit serial number manually in the TXID field.
Configure Zone Settings
In AlarmNet 360, set the following for this zone:
- Zone Type — Entry/Exit, Perimeter, etc.
- Zone Name/Descriptor — e.g., Front Door
- Supervision — enabled (default); the panel will expect check-ins every 70–90 minutes
Save — Sync Is Automatic
The PROA7 syncs programming changes automatically. No manual download is required. Confirm the sensor appears under Menu → Sensors on the PROA7 touchscreen or in AlarmNet 360 with a valid signal strength reading.
2GIG EDGE
What You Need
- 2GIG EDGE panel
- Installer code (factory default:
1561) - MINI-345 7-digit serial number (TXID from label inside sensor cover)
About wireless zone programming on the 2GIG EDGE
The 2GIG EDGE uses a guided programming system accessed through the Installer Toolbox on the 7" touchscreen. Each wireless zone has its own set of parameters: equipment type, TXID (serial number), loop number, zone type, voice descriptor, and supervision settings.
Enter the Installer Toolbox
On the EDGE touchscreen, navigate to:
System Settings → Installer Toolbox → Enter Installer Code
Go to Panel Programming → Wireless Zones
From the Installer Toolbox, select Panel Programming, then Wireless Zones. Tap the zone slot you want to program.
Set Sensor / Equipment Type

Enter the TXID (Serial Number)
Tap the TXID field and enter the 7-digit serial number from the MINI-345 label.
Or use Auto-Learn / Shadow Learn: Select Learn, then open and close the door or window. The panel captures the sensor's TXID automatically from the RF transmission.
Set Loop Number to 1
Select Loop 1. This is the magnetic contact input on the MINI-345 — the loop that activates when the door or window opens.
Set Zone Type
Choose the zone response type based on this sensor's location:
- Entry/Exit 1 — front door (entry delay active)
- Entry/Exit 2 — secondary door (longer entry delay)
- Perimeter — windows, back doors (instant alarm)
Set Voice Descriptor
Choose a name from the EDGE's vocabulary list (e.g., Front Door, Garage Door). The panel announces this name during alarms and chime events.
Confirm Reports and Supervision
Leave Sensor Reports and Sensor Supervised enabled (default settings). The panel will check in with the sensor periodically and flag a trouble condition if supervision signals are missed.
Test and Save
From the Installer Toolbox, run a Sensor Test (walk test). Open and close the door or window — the panel should display the zone name and register the event. Verify signal strength before permanently mounting the sensor. The EDGE saves changes when you exit programming.
Honeywell Lyric Controller
What You Need
- Honeywell Lyric Controller (LCP500-L / LCP500-LC)
- Installer code (factory default:
4112) - MINI-345 7-digit serial number (from label inside sensor cover)
About wireless zones on the Lyric Controller
The Lyric supports up to 128 total wireless zones using 5800 and SiX™ Series transmitters, and its built-in RF receiver detects transmitters within a nominal range of ~200 ft. 5800-series sensors enroll by their 7-digit serial number and loop; the MINI-345 magnetic contact uses Loop 1. Programming is touchscreen-guided; the full data field reference is in the Lyric Controller Programming Guide (p/n 800-18077).
Enter Programming Mode
From the Standby/Ready screen, tap Security → Tools, enter the installer code (default 4112), then select Program → Zones.
Add a New Zone
In Zones, select an available zone slot to program for the MINI-345.
Enroll by Serial Number
Learn the MINI-345 by its 7-digit serial number — activate the sensor (fault the contact or trip the cover tamper) to auto-capture it, or key the serial in manually.
Set Loop Number to 1
Set the loop to 1 — the magnetic contact input that triggers when the door or window opens. (If you enrolled via the tamper, change any pre-filled loop to 1.)
Set Zone Type
Choose the zone response based on this sensor's location:
- Entry/Exit 1 — primary entry door (entry delay)
- Entry/Exit 2 — secondary door (longer delay)
- Perimeter — windows, back doors (instant alarm)
Name the Zone
Enter a descriptor (e.g., Front Door) for keypad and voice announcements.
Save & Test

Frequently asked questions
Which Versa wireless sensors are compatible with the Honeywell VISTA 20P?
Versa's 345 MHz sensors work with the Honeywell VISTA 20P when the panel has a 5800-series RF receiver installed (5881ENH, 5883H, or a 6160RF keypad). The MINI-345 covers door/window contacts (a direct drop-in for the 5800MINI and 5816) and the PIR-DUAL covers pet-immune motion (in its 345 MHz mode) — both use the Honeywell 5800-series protocol, so you can protect doors, windows, and motion on a VISTA 20P from one Versa line with no panel swap.
What wireless door/window sensor is compatible with the Honeywell VISTA 20P?
The Versa MINI-345 is a 345 MHz door/window contact compatible with the Honeywell VISTA 20P when the panel has a 5800-series RF receiver installed (5881ENH, 5883H, or a 6160RF keypad). It enrolls on Loop 1 through *56 zone programming and is a direct drop-in for the 5800MINI and 5816.
Is the MINI-345 compatible with the 2GIG EDGE and Resideo PROA7?
Yes. The 2GIG EDGE has a built-in 345 MHz receiver, so the MINI-345 works natively with no extra module. The Resideo PROA7/PROA7PLUS needs the PROTAKEOVER module with its rotary switch set to 0 (5800) to receive the MINI-345's 345 MHz signal, and it runs alongside the panel's built-in PROSiX/SiX receiver.
Does the Versa MINI-345 work with the Honeywell Lyric Controller?
Yes — natively, with no extra module. The Honeywell Lyric Controller (LCP500-L) has a built-in 5800-series 345 MHz receiver, so the MINI-345 enrolls directly as a 5800 sensor: on the touchscreen go to Security → Tools → installer code (default 4112) → Program → Zones, then learn the 7-digit serial (fault the contact to auto-capture) and set Loop 1. The Lyric supports up to 128 total 5800/SiX wireless zones, and the MINI-345 is a direct drop-in for the 5800MINI and 5816.
What loop number do I use for the MINI-345?
Use Loop 1 on all four panels. Loop 1 is the magnetic contact input — the zone that activates when the door or window opens.
Can I swap in a MINI-345 without re-programming the panel?
No. Every sensor has a unique serial number (TXID), so you'll need to delete the old 5800MINI from the panel and enroll the MINI-345 with its new serial number. The zone number, zone type, and descriptor can stay the same — only the TXID changes. See our 5800MINI replacement guide for a broader look at swapping 5800-series sensors.
Where is the serial number on the MINI-345?
Open the sensor cover — the 7-digit serial number is printed on a label inside the housing. It may also appear on the outside of the packaging box.
