I replaced three old Admeco 5816 Wireless Transmitters with new 5820
Slim Line Wireless Transmitters and sent my new serial numbers off to
my installer to have all three added to my system.
He said it's taken care of (and charged me $40 for the "install"), but

I tried to upload a version 2 DSC Power 832 (5010) this morning, and got a
