Does this product include installation instructions and can it be used to add wireless to an existing Ademco wired system?

No it does not. There are wiring instructions but not programing instructions and I do not think it by itself will work wireless. You would have to have that in the main box.

Let me answer the 2nd question first, because the answer to that is "maybe." If your existing system has an Ademco 2-line alphanumeric keypad like any in the 6160 series, the answer is yes. If your existing keypad does not have the alphanumeric display (as is the case with the older 6150 6148, or 5150) you can't because it's impossible to program a wireless 6150RF without an alphanumeric keypad already on the system. Even if you do have one I must warn that's it's a technical nightmare unless you've got some familiarity with Ademco panel programming, and you'll definitely want to pull the complete programming manual off the web with a Google search before you start.

yes it does come with instructions, but you will need a 6160 keypad to do any programing

The unit comes with the basic installation instructions. I do not know if it can be function in a wireless mode as I mine is used as the 2nd keypad in the bedroom and it was hardwired to the control module of the alarm. My installation was completed by the alarm company on a 2nd visit as they were short one keypad for my bedroom during their first visit.

No, wired networking only. There's an RJ45 connection on the back. You will need a wireless bridge for a wireless connection.

I've installed it USB to USB. I don't believe it has wireless capability but will check. I don't know about a wired way. The printer doesn't have a port for a parallel or serial feed from a computer

It has to be hardwired or use with a Ethernet bridge. There are no wireless drivers built into it.

I didnt read this but its a pretty educated guess, It needs a plug, and if you want wireless you Add a wireless router.

Wireless driver is already installed. You need to sync it with your wireless router using Ethernet cable. You can do other ways as described in instructions, but it took me long time and was unsuccessful after all. With Ethernet cable was quick and easy. I have the printer for almost a year already and it works good.I tried to do wireless and manual, but took me long time and did not work after. To save time and effort use an Ethernet cable.

I do not remember. This device is a plug and play item. You just plug it in to your computer and let it install. It does come with a USB cord that is about three feet long so you can place the device in a area that is better suited for wireless signal. If the item fails to load properly you can go to the linksys website and download the driver onto your computer.

No. It is not a wireless unit. It is for connecting things using USB cables.

This unit is meant for Ademco wireless security systems and would need to be part of that system to operate.

I think so but the instructions are for Windows users you can look at the manuel on the website you have to look in the 120n wireless to find it.
