Lyric Gateway vs. Honeywell L5210

The Lyric Gateway and the Honeywell L5210 are very different panels. The main similarity is that they are both self contained, wireless alarm and home automation systems.

The Lyric Gateway is the latest panel released in the Lyric system line. The Gateway has a built in WIFI communicator and integrated Ethernet jack. A Verizon or AT&T cellular communicator can be installed in the top of the unit in the Gateway’s expansion bay. If a user wants to use cellular communication, they will want to select the communicator that corresponds to the strongest cell signal in their area as both units provide identical operation. The Gateway does support Dual Path communication. With this enabled, if the Primary communication path (Ethernet or WIFI) fails, the system will automatically switch to the Secondary communication path (Cellular). The Lyric Gateway supports all SiX Sensors and all wireless 5800 devices except for those that use a House ID. The Gateway itself has no integrated digital display. Instead, users can interact with the panel by downloading the MyHome Gateway app, which provides a graphic user interface. This app provides access to basic programming features such as adding users and learning in Z-Wave devices. To access Installer level programming, such as zone and communication options, the user will need to have their system monitored by an alarm company with access to AlarmNet360. The alarm company needs to make all programming changes for the system, as only they will have access to this programming.

The L5210 is an all in one wireless panel from the LYNX line. The system can communicate over Ethernet, WIFI or Cellular and also supports a Dual Path setup. The L5210 is also has a terminal connection for a phone line. The system is compatible with all 5800 wireless devices and has a terminal block where one wired security zone can connect. The system can be upgraded with a Z-Wave controller and supports up to 3 Z-Wave thermostats, 4 Z-Wave door locks and 40 Z-Wave light, switch and appliance modules simultaneously.
