I installed my own panel, so I had my panel's master codes. To add these to your system, you will either need to contact your installer, or you will need to have the installers codes to program the panel (and the know-how to use them) yourself. If you're reasonably experienced with "Do it yourself" projects, this is not difficult. It took me about 30 minutes of research online to figure out how all consumer-grade security panels work and about an hour of reading the programming manuals to work out how to program mine.
The honeywell panel (with the newer keypads) makes adding these into the system a breeze. You just set the zone type, tell the panel it's an RF sensor, and then separate the magnet and transmitter a couple of times to auto-enter the serial number. From that point on, it "just works". You should make sure to test your sensors in the location you want to install them before you tape or screw them to your door, but I have a rather large house, and these worked fine when the receiver (my RF keypad) was on the first floor on one side of the house, and the sensor was in the basement on the opposite side of the house. I live in a pretty remote area, though, with almost no RF interference, so your milage may vary.
Bottom line, I love these sensors, and I'll buy them again as I need more.
Replacement battery should be an AAA LITHIUM battery.
I use these on my PVC double pane windows sills. I glue rare earth magnets to the top pane and stick this thing on the lower pane (and ditch the magnet it came with) so that it alarms no matter which part of the window gets opened.
They are pricey, but they look much better than the bigger ones. Plus, these don't require me to drill into my new vinyl windows.
Sometimes compatible parts are hard to find for old systems but this one matched perfectly.
