ADEMCO 5804
WIRELESS KEY TRANSMITTER
INSTALLATION AND SETUP GUIDE
GENERAL INFORMATION
The 5804 is a compact, 4-button portable wireless
transmitter intended for use only with wireless alarm
systems that support 5800 Series receivers. Each
button on the transmitter may be programmed for
any zone response, but is typically used for arming,
disarming, panic, and relay activation. Each
button's response is assigned when programming
the transmitter at the control (see the control's
installation instructions).
The 5804 is powered by two replaceable lithium
batteries designed to provide long life. For battery
installation, see
INSTALLING THE BATTERIES.
PROGRAMMING THE 5804
Each 5804 is assigned a unique serial number
during manufacture. Each button on the unit also
has a distinct "loop" number (refer to Figure 1) that
you must program into the control panel during
installation. Assign each button to an individual zone
and designate the Input Type as "BR" (Button Type
RF).
You can also program the unit by entering the serial
number manually through the keypad or
downloading it to the control panel using ADEMCO's
Compass Downloading Software. If you are using
one of these methods, be sure to include the loop
number of each button (see Figure 1).
For complete details on how to program the 5804
transmitter's serial number at the control panel, see
the control unit's installation instructions.
Note:
Buttons on this transmitter must be pressed
for at least 1/2 second to activate the
transmitter. This feature minimizes the
possibility of accidental transmissions.

If there is no requirement to use the lower left-hand
button (Loop 4), do the following:
1. Program and enroll it into the system anyway
(see previous explanation).
2. After the serial number has been enrolled, re-
enter Zone Programming for that zone.
3. At the "Zone Type" prompt, enter 00 and press
[
✱
]. On Vista-20 panels and below, the system
asks whether you want to permanently delete that
zone. Enter 0 (No). This will cause the system to
retain the serial number, but render the button
inactive. On Vista-40 panels and above, continue
to press [
✱
] until you see the "Enter Zone No?"
prompt. At this point, press 00 and [
✱
]. Then
enter
✱
99 to exit program mode.
INSTALLING ADHESIVE LABELS
AND BUTTONS
The 5804 is supplied with colored buttons (red and
blue) and colored adhesive identification labels
(blue, red, gray, and green). Each label has a
specified command function and symbol printed on
it, as well as an adhesive back for easy pasting.
To paste a label on a button, slowly peel off a label
with a selected function and paste it on the button of
the transmitter. If you decide later to reprogram a
button, the label can be easily removed or a new
label pasted over the existing one. Additional
colored buttons (red and blue) are also provided that
can be used with or without the labels. The buttons
can be inserted only in the areas provided (see
Figure 3).
To insert the colored buttons, do the following:
1. Holding the transmitter with the buttons face
down, remove the case back by using the blade
of a small screwdriver to pry it open (see Figure
2).
2. Carefully remove the PC board by its rubber
casing, making sure the board does not come out
of the casing. Do not bend the exposed battery
tabs on the PC board.
3. Replace the desired buttons, either red or blue, in
each button's designated opening (see Figure 3).
4. When finished, replace the PC board, making
sure the button tabs on the board face the four
buttons, and snap the case front and back
together.
After inserting the new buttons, check the 5804 for
proper operation.
