GEM-X255 Notes:

! F or a GEM-X255 system comprising 96 zones or less, the system may be keypad programmed. A system larger than 96 zones must be downloaded with NAPCO PCD-Windows Version 4.1. This manual contains

Easy Program Mode instructions, which allows the the first 96 zones to be completely programmed through

Menu Driven Easy Program Mode.

!

The GEM-X255 requires the use of version 7 firmware GEM-RP1CAe2 7 keypads:

The keypad version can be identified by a compatibility sticker on keypad carton as well as a product version number of 07. The product version number appears as a 2 digit number which follows a 5 digit date code stamped on the the inside end flap of the carton (ex: XXXXX07DR). This number will also appear on the product on a triangular shaped sticker.

The firmware version of the keypad can also be ascertained by entering the program mode—it will read

[2307 Program Mode].

!

The GEM-X255 requires the use of version 7 firmware GEM-EZM-8 zone expansion modules.

This version zone expansion modules can be identified by a compatibility sticker on the keypad carton as well as a product version number of 11. The product version number appears as a 2 digit number which follows a 5 digit date code stamped on the carton (ex: XXXXX11DR). This number will also appear on the on the the inside end flap of the carton as well as on the circuit board on a triangular shaped sticker.

INTRODUCTION

WI1093A 12/01

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

NAPCO's Gemini GEM-X255 is a state-of-the-art microcomputer-based burglary and residential fire alarm control panel of modular design. Integrally an 8-zone panel, it will support up to 255 zones with optional zone expansion modules, wireless receiver modules and/or GEM-RP1CAe2 Keypads. Each panel includes an integral digital communicator.

The control panel features programmable area partitioning. That is, the system may be divided into up to 8 discrete multiple-zone areas, each allowing access by only those users programmed for their respective area.

Opening Suppression and Closing Suppression, available through Napco PCD-Windows Quickloader software, suppress reporting within programmed “windows”. Conversely, Exception Reporting can transmit a “fail to close” if the panel is not armed within programmed intervals and, similarly, a “fail to open” if the panel is not disarmed within programmed intervals.

Furthermore, the panel can be programmed to automatically arm either area at any time. A log containing up to 800 events (accessible through Quickloader

TM

software) monitors control-panel activity referenced to a precision real-time clock. A detailed event history may be displayed at the computer, using NAPCO's PCD-Windows Quickloader Software.

Keypads feature a liquid-crystal display for messages. In normal use, the LCD shows zone identification and status messages. Conventional LEDs and a sounder are also provided for annunciation.

Data may be quickly and easily downloaded to the control panel using a PC-compatible computer with NAPCO's

PCD-Windows Quickloader software and PCI2000 computer interface. Or, the panel may be programmed using the keypad in its secondary mode of operation. In the keypad programming modes (there are two: Dealer and User), the LCD shows memory address, data values, programming prompts, and the alphanumeric characters required for entering up to

32 user codes and custom zone descriptions.

GEM-X255M

The standard GEM-X255 may be converted to the Mercantile “GEM-X255M” version with the optional accessory, H1217.

The H1217 kit includes the model H217 heavy-duty UL commercial enclosure, the required (2) tamper switches and required tamper screws.

Note: Do not use Fire Zones in a Mercantile installation.

NOTE: Failure to install and program as described in this manual for UL-listed systems voids the listing mark of

Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.

INSTALLATION

Page 9

!

CAUTION: This equipment generates and uses radio-frequency energy. If not installed using conventional installation practices for RF devices, it may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If it has been found to cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by removing and reapplying AC and battery power to the equipment, the installer should try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: reorient the receiving antenna; connect the power transformer to a different outlet so that the control panel and receiver are on different branch circuits; relocate the control panel with respect to the receiver.

MOUNTING

Control Panel

Choose a mounting location accessible to (a) a continuously-powered AC source, (b) system ground, a steel or copper ground rod, ideally no further away than 10 feet, and (c) telephone lines (keep telephone wiring away from keypad wires).

Remove appropriate knockouts for cables. Place the control panel at a convenient viewing height and mark the mounting holes. Attach the enclosure using screws suitable for the mounting surface.

Grounding

Connect the control-panel grounding screw through a No. 16 AWG. or larger wire to a long steel or copper ground rod driven deeply into the earth. Do not use a gas pipe, plastic pipe or ac ground connections. Make the run as short and direct as possible, without any sharp bends in the wire.

Tamper Switches

Tamper switches may be installed to prevent opening of the control-panel door or removal of the cabinet from the wall.

Ideally, tamper switches should be connected to a zone that is active at all times, thus it may be necessary to program that zone as a 24-Hour Zone or Day Zone. When used on a normally-open zone, normally-closed tamper switches (open when set) should be wired in parallel. On a normally-closed zone, install Napco TPS-2 normally-open tamper switches

(closed when set) in series.

There are two places in the cabinet to mount tamper switches: (1) To prevent cabinet removal from the wall, there are three mounting holes on the left side of the cabinet, another hole on the back that allows the switch button to contact the wall. (2) To prevent opening the cabinet door, there are three mounting holes on the right side of the cabinet. When mounted, the switch button should contact the inside of the door. Be sure to alert the user that opening the enclosure door will cause a tamper alarm. Note: Each tamper switch is furnished with three machine screws for mounting, and one self-tapping screw. The sole purpose of the self-tapping screw is to tap the holes for the machine screws; it may be discarded after use.

Keypad

A keypad should be located near each exit/entry door. The keypad features a handy pull-up reference label. Before mounting the keypad onto the wall, push the Sliding Label Plate (with label and felt backing affixed and handle facing forward) down the guides at the rear of the keypad until it snaps into place. Once installed, the Sliding Label Plate cannot be removed without first removing the keypad from the wall. Note: (1) The keypad fire and panic keys should not be considered a substitute for a listed manual initiating device, such as a pull box. (2) Each GEM-RP1CAe2 includes provisions for four additional zones. See ADDING EXPANSION ZONES.

If installing onto a double-gang box, insert mounting screws through the two vertical elongated holes on the left side of the case and into the box. If the box is visible when viewed from the front, adjust the keypad vertically and tighten the screws. Then, using hardware suitable for the mounting surface, add one or two screws at the right side of the keypad case directly into the wall to ensure a secure installation. Note: Do not overtighten the screws! Uneven walls may cause the keypad case to distort.

WIRING

Wire keypad(s), zones, expansion zone modules and output devices as shown on the Wiring Diagram. Note that the

Wiring Diagram contains important information not available elsewhere in this manual.

CAUTION: Do not run telephone wiring near speaker wires; do not run keypad wiring with loop wiring.

Adding Expansion Zones

GEM-X255 Series control panels will handle up to 8 zones as is, however this number may be increased to as many as

255 programmable zones using optional expansion zone modules (EZMs).

WIRELESS SYSTEMS

With the addition of at least one GEM-RECV series receiver, the GEM-X255 will support up to 255 wireless transmitters.

The panel can accommodate one to four receivers within the premises, responding to the one with the stronger transmitter signal. If any transmitters are selected for the default program, a GEM-RECV receiver will automatically be programmed. NOTE: For UL Residential Installations, a maximum of 200 supervisory reporting transmitters may be installed. This does not include GEM-KEYF or GEM-WP remotes.

The keypad can display the status of any transmitter, indicating the condition of the zone (normal or open) and transmitter troubles (low battery, tamper or supervisory failure), and signal strength of the last transmission. A receiver failure will be indicated by “E06-NN” (“no response”, with NN representing the receiver number).

TYPICAL RESIDENTIAL FIRE

INSTALLATION (WHERE PERMITTED

BY LOCAL CODES)

At least one smoke detector should be installed directly outside each sleeping area. If there is more than one floor, additional smoke detectors should be installed on each level, including the basement. The living-area and basement smoke detectors should be installed near the stairway of the next upper level.

For increased protection, additional detectors should be installed in areas other than those required, such as the dining room, bedrooms, utility room, furnace room, and hallways. Heat detectors, rather than smoke detectors, are recommended in kitchens, attics, and garages due to conditions that may result in false alarms and improper operation. Large areas and areas with partitions, ceiling beams, doorways, and open joists will require additional detectors.

Refer to NFPA Standard No. 74 (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269) for additional information, including proper mounting of detectors.

TYPICAL PARTITIONED INSTALLATION

Described and illustrated here are an example of a partitioned system with common-area protection of the control-panel room. This system meets UL requirements for a partitioned installation.

!

Both areas must be owned and managed by the same person(s).

!

Both areas must be part of one building at one street address.

!

The control panel and all wiring protecting each partitioned area must be confined to the respective area and may not encroach upon the other area. This requires that the control panel room have redundant protection; that is (a) multiple sets of door contacts, each wired to a separate zone and (b) one of those zones programmed for each area. In order to gain access to this protected area without causing an alarm, both partitions must be disarmed. In lieu of redundant protection, 24-Hour Zones may be used. Any zone protecting the control panel and transformer may not be programmed for bypass.

!

The sounding device must be placed such that the bell test can be heard by all partitions. Note: NFPA 74 (Household Fire

Warning Equipment) requires that a fire alarm audible device be installed indoors.

!

The User Program Code is not to be given to anyone except the authority responsible for all partitions.

Compatibility Number

The compatibility number is a 4-digit security code that, if programmed into both the control panel and each GEM-RP1CAe2 keypad, dedicates the keypad to only that panel. That is, (a) similar keypads not having the correct compatibility number will not operate in the system and (b) a keypad may not be removed for use on a system with a different compatibility number. Note: (1) If assigning compatibility numbers, record and store them in a safe place. While the compatibility number may be changed, the old number must be known in order to program the new number.

Note: If neither the control panel nor the keypad is given a compatibility number, both default to “0000” (thereby maintaining compatibility).

To program the compatibility number, press the

A

button until “NEW COMPAT# 0000” is displayed. Enter the 4-digit compatibility number that is programmed into the panel. Note: If the keypad had been previously programmed for a compatibility number other than “0000”, the display would read “OLD COMPAT# XXXX”. Enter the existing number before attempting to change it.

This section provides a brief overview of system operation. For detailed operation, refer to the User's Guide furnished with the keypad (OI193 for the GEM-RP1CAe2 and to the Keypad Programming Modes at the end of this manual.

USER CODES & ZONE DESCRIPTIONS

(Refer to the GEM-X255 Programming Instructions (W1092) for a detailed explanation of programming.) Up to 195 personal user codes may be programmed at the keypad. NOTE: The Authority Level and Access Byte associated with each User Code may only be programmed in the Dealer Program Mode.

Default User Code

The first code programmed should replace the default (Level-3) code, “U01 123 • • • - • • - • • ”, (1,2,3), which should not be selected as a user code. Enter up to six digits (a minimum of four digits is recommended). The related Option

Code and Authority Level are programmable in the Dealer Program Mode only.

Each user should be assigned his own dissimilar code and should be cautioned against divulging his code to anyone else. Thus should it become necessary to remove a user from the system, that one code may be canceled without affecting other codes, and that user would then be prevented from entry. NOTE: NAPCO's PCD-Windows Quickloader

Software provides enabling and disabling User Codes at programmed times using the scheduling menus.

Changing or Canceling a Code

To change any code, merely program over the existing code as described in the Programming Instructions. Similarly, to cancel a code, blank out each number of the code.

Arm/Disarm Code (Programmable in Dealer Program Mode only)

An Arm/Disarm Code may be used to arm/disarm the area in which it is programmed. Up to 6 digits may be programmed or it may be programmed as a two-digit code for the purposes of quick arming.

Arm-Only Code (Programmable in Dealer Program Mode only)

An Arm-Only Code may only be used to arm the area in which it is programmed; it never has any disarm capability. Up to

6 digits may be programmed or it may be programmed as a two-digit code for the purposes of quick arming.

Service Code (Programmable in Dealer Program Mode only)

A Service Code is an Arm/Disarm Code that is easily activated when needed, and dormant at other times. Intended for the occasional or temporary user (maid, repairman, etc.) who would otherwise be denied access to the premises, it is programmed in conjunction with the Authority Level when programming User Codes. Refer to Programming Instructions.

It is activated by arming with it; an “S” will appear in the display after the exit-delay countdown, indicating that a

Service Code has been activated. It may then be used to arm and disarm just as any other User Code. Service code can be armed/disarmed from a disarmed state, but it cannot be armed/disarmed from an armed state, after another user code has been entered.

Panel Access Code

The Panel Access Code will trip the panel's Auxiliary Relay while disarmed if Access Control on Auxiliary Relay is programmed. The Panel Access Code is programmed as any other User Code but without an accompanying Priority

Level. Caution: Do not use the same code as any Arm/Disarm Code. Note: These systems have not been investigated by UL for compliance with UL294 (Access Control Systems).

Program Keypad Time and Date in User Program Mode

(GEM-RP1CAe2 firmware version 6 or greater required)

When using an GEM-RP1CAe2, the Time and Date may be set in the User Program Mode.

Keypad Access Code (Programmable in Dealer Program Mode only)

Any User Code may have Keypad Access through a door with a striker by programming the keypad’s Access Byte.

Program the Keypad Access Lug for the applicable keypads 1 through 8. If the Access Byte is programmed, that User

Code will function only an Access Code and not as an Arm/Disarm Code. Entering the code will cause a 5-second active-low output on the PGM line with a pulsing sounder at the keypad and “**ENTER NOW**” (or other customized

(keypad will then normally display “**ENTER CODE**”. (2) Keypad access may be logged into the event log by keypad.

Ambush Code

The Ambush Code is a two-digit code entered by the user just prior to disarming, typically to cause a silent report to be sent to the central station. Thus, should the user be forced to disarm by an assailant, he can silently signal an emergency while appearing to be merely disarming the panel. (Check the glossary for programming required to enable this feature.)

Ambush Code should not contain digits used as the first two digits of any user code.

Zone Descriptions

Zone descriptions follow the Program Code in the normal programming sequence (“01-” will appear in the display).

Program the description, up to two lines, letter by letter. Buttons

1

and

2

control the position of the cursor.

Buttons

G0

will clear the entry at the cursor. When programming zone descriptions, buttons

3

and

6 will scroll not only through numbers 0-9, but through the alphabet and a series of punctuation marks and symbols as well.

(Roughly note the order in which the letters, numbers and symbols are displayed so that you will be able to determine the proper direction to scroll, up or down, for fastest access. As familiarity improves, so will programming speed.) When the description has been entered and is satisfactory as displayed (e.g. “GARAGE”), press the

J button to save it in memory.

To advance to the next zone (or to any other zone, for that matter), position the cursor over the displayed Zone Number, i.e., “01” using buttons

1

and

2

. Change the Zone Number using buttons

3

and

In the normal disarmed state, only the green STATUS LED will be on and the display will read “SYSTEM READY”. To silence an alarm, enter any User Code, then press the

J button. Any valid User Code may be used to arm or disarm; an

Arm-Only Code may only be used to arm.

Arming

!

To arm, enter a valid User Code, then press the

J

button.

(If a wrong code is entered, the keypad will display “INVALID ENTRY / TRY AGAIN”.) The green STATUS LED will go off, the red

ARMED LED will go on, and the display will read “EXIT TIME XXX” (“XXX” representing the programmed exit-delay time, in seconds). The exit delay will immediately start counting down toward “000”, in 10-second decrements, indicating the available time remaining to exit through an exit/entry door.

Note:

!

1. If Exit Delay Restart is enabled, after the panel is armed and the exit door is opened and then closed, exit delay will restart at 60 seconds. If re-entry occurs within this 60-second interval, the alarm device will sound a 2-second warning “chirp”, if programmed, as an entry reminder to the user to return to the keypad and disarm.

!

2. An “S” in the display (e.g. “EXIT TIME XXX S”) will appear as a reminder that the system is being armed with the

Service Code active. (To turn off the Service Code, disarm, then rearm using a regular Arm/Disarm Code.)

!

3. If the System Trouble is displayed, there should be an attempt to correct the system trouble (for example by calling an alarm maintenance or an alarm repairman). If this cannot be done, then press the

C

button to allow 5 minutes to access the keypad without the system trouble displayed. Immediate attention should be provided, when system troubles are encountered.

!

4. In commercial applications, if Start Exit Delay After Ringback is programmed, exit delay will not start until the central station acknowledges receipt by a ringback tone at the keypad. The display will read “PLEASE WAIT” while the control panel communicates to the central station. If the ringback tone does not sound within about 30 seconds, the START EXIT TIME function may be used to manually start exit delay.

Disarming

When the exit time has elapsed, the display will read “SYSTEM ARMED”. This indicates that upon entering the premises through an exit/entry door, there will be an entry delay to allow time to disarm the panel. The GEM-RP1CAe2 display will read “ENTRY TIME XXX” (“XXX” representing the programmed entry-delay time, in seconds). The sounder will come on and the entry delay will immediately start counting down toward “000” in intervals of 10 seconds, indicating the available time remaining to disarm the panel. The sounder will pulse during the final 10 seconds.

!

To disarm the panel, enter a valid User Code, then press the

J

button.

Arming with No Delay

!

Press the

F

button prior to or after arming.

This feature allows normal exit delay, but cancels the next entry delay through an entry/exit zone. The display red LED will flicker. This feature may be used to provide instant protection while you or someone else is still on the premises. It will be canceled automatically upon disarming.

Priority Arming

A 2-second tone and “ZONE NOT NORMAL/CAN'T ARM” displayed when attempting to arm indicates a priority condition; that is, a problem exists on at least one zone that has been designated a Priority Zone, or a system trouble exists. The trouble(s) must be corrected before the panel can be armed. The display will read “ZONE FAULTS”, then automatically scroll through all unsecured zones. If a system trouble is indicated, display the system trouble.

Area Arming/Overview Mode

In a partitioned system, either or both secured areas may be armed (or disarmed) simultaneously from either the Overview

Mode or the Manager's Mode (if enabled). To arm or disarm the alternate area, see Keypad Area Change, which follows.

Overview Mode

To enable or disable Overview, see ACTIVATE OVERVIEW function later in this section. The Overview Mode is a high security mode of operation requiring a Level-3 User Code with Overview Option, wherein the status of both areas is displayed at the keypad. When arming, the “home” area remains disarmed. To arm the alternate area, see Keypad Area

Change, which follows.

In the Overview Mode, “OV(-)” will be displayed, where each dash (“-”) represents an area. In programmed areas, the dash will be replaced by one of the following:

”A” = Area Armed

“B” = Burglary Zone in Alarm

“C” = Check Trouble; Area in Function-Display Mode

“F” = Fire Zone in Alarm

“R” = Area Ready (no faulted zones)

“T” = Fire Trouble

”Z” = Zone Fault

!

In the Overview Mode, the alternate ready area may be armed by pressing the

9 G

buttons.

Note: The User Code must be valid in that area.

!

Similarly, the alternate armed area (“A”) may be disarmed by pressing the

0 G

buttons.

If any zone is not secured, the system will not arm and the keypad will display “CAN'T ARM SYSTEM / AREA # IN TROUBLE”, where

“#” represents the area number.

Manager's Mode

The Manager's Mode, in contrast to the Overview Mode, is a low-security mode of operation.

!

Unlike the Overview Mode, when arming both areas press

9 G

and enter a valid user code, the

“home” area will also arm.

As in Overview, if any zone is not secured, the area will not arm and the keypad will display “CAN'T ARM SYSTEM / AREA # IN

TROUBLE”, where “#” represents the area number.

!

To disarm both areas, press

0 G

and enter a valid user code.

!

To arm the alternate area, see Keypad Area Change.

Note: If the “home” keypad has been changed to the alternate area and unused for more than 5 minutes, it will revert to the home area.

BYPASSING ZONES

Security Bypass

Zones programmed for Selective Bypass may be removed from the system prior to arming as follows:

!

1. Enter a code valid for bypass (Authority Level 1 or higher and Bypass option enabled), then press the

B

button; “BYPASS ENABLED” will display.

!

2. Press the

B

button, then the zone number (or vice versa) to deactivate that zone.

Note: When the panel is subsequently disarmed, all bypassed zones revert to unbypassed zones (unless Disable

Auto-Unbypass on Disarming is programmed or Interior Zones are programmed normally bypassed).

Easy Bypass (Do not enable in UL applications.)

Enable this feature by programming Disable Code Required for Easy Bypass. Then, zones programmed for Selective

Bypass may be bypassed quickly and easily as follows. Note: This is not a high-security feature.

!

1. At the “SYSTEM READY” or “ZONE FAULT” display, enter the zone number as a two-digit number (ex., “01”, “15”, etc.). Zones cannot be bypassed while the panel is armed.

!

2. Press the

B

button. To unbypass the zone, press the

B

button again. Note: Steps 1 and 2 may be reversed and this feature will still function.)

Note: If Bypass Faulted Zones is programmed, pressing the

G

and the

B

buttons simultaneously will bypass all zones in trouble (except Fire and PIR Zones) that are also programmed for Selective Bypass.

Bypassing Interior Zones

Interior zones allow perimeter zones to be armed while part or all of the active interior remains disarmed. When the

E

button is pressed, the “BYPASSED” reminder will come on. Pressing the

J button within 10 seconds will bypass the selected interior group without arming, otherwise Interior Bypass will time out and the system will revert to the regular disarmed state. All zones designated for the selected interior group(s) will be bypassed simultaneously when the system is armed. The alarm conditions will then be stored in the Alarm History Log and the Total Event Log (see HISTORY

LOG).

ALARM INDICATION

!

To silence an alarm, enter a valid User Code, then press the

J

button.

Should a burglary alarm occur, the red ARMED LED will flash, and the display will alternately read “ALARM”, then the zones violated. Disarm the panel; the display will read “ALARM” and will continue to indicate the violated zones until the

C button is pressed or the panel is armed once again.

Note: Displayed messages shown are for the GEM-RP1CAe2 keypad. GEM-RP2ASe2 and GEM-RP3DGTL messages are similar but abbreviated. Refer to the GEM-X255 Programming Manual (WI1092) for address numbers.

Abort Delay (Do not program for UL Applications.)

A delay period that allows cancellation of the central-station report by disarming the control panel. Program zones for Abort Delay; see Time Selection for delay time.

Note: If Abort Delay is selected for a 24-Hour Zone, the zone must be cleared before disarming the area.

Ac Failure

Ac-Fail Report Delay

If AC power is removed from the control panel, “E01-00 AC POWER FAIL” will display at the keypad with a flashing “SYS/TRBL” reminder and a pulsing sounder. Press the

C

button to silence the sounder; the “SYS/TRBL” as a reminder will remain on and “SYSTEM READY” will appear in the display. If a User Code is entered within 5 minutes, the panel may be armed successfully. After 5 minutes, the system trouble will again display.

Ac Failure may be programmed to activate the burglary output or any external relay, and/or report to a central station (program

Panel AC-Fail Report). An alarm and/or restore report to the central station will occur immediately unless an Ac-Fail Report Delay is programmed (see Time Selection). Ac Failure is logged immediately upon detection.

Access Logging

Note: The GEM-X255 has not been evaluated by UL for compliance with UL294 (Access Control Systems).

If Access Control on Auxiliary Output is selected, entering the Access Code while disarmed will trip the panel's Auxiliary output.

This is commonly used to activate a door strike for the purposes of remotely unlocking a door. Each keypad is individually selected for

Panel Access (see Keypad Features). Also program Auxiliary Relay Access Control time (see Time Selection). Note: Do not program the Auxiliary Relay as an output on alarm.

Keypad Access is selectable for any keypad 1-8 by appropriate programming of the Keypad Access Byte (see Access-Control

Keypads herein and User Codes, Authority Levels & Keypad Access Control Byte in the Programming Workbook, WI1092). However, if the Keypad Access Byte is programmed, the code will no longer function as an Arm/Disarm Code. It will then display “ENTER CODE” and will no longer be capable of arming or disarming.

Entering a valid code at the keypad will cause a 5-second output on the keypad's PGM line with a pulsing sounder and the display

“**ENTER NOW**” (or other customized message). If Access Logging is programmed, keypad access control will be added to the event log, by keypad.

An RB1000 Relay may be used to activate a door strike. Power to the door strike should be supplied from an independent source.

Access, Garage Door Opener Control by KeyFob.

The Auxiliary Output can be programmed to activate by KeyFob, providing access functions such as opening and closing a garage door, or remotely activating an electric door strike. This is achieved by programming Access on Aux. Output, into the Aux. 1 or Aux. 2 option locations on the Wireless KeyFobs screen. This feature also requires a valid time to be entered into the Auxiliary

Relay Access Control time in the Time Selection Screen.

Access Number for Outside Line

Some subscribers will have a telephone system that requires one digit to access an outside line. The first dial tone encountered

(prior to the access number) may have a frequency that is different from that of the accessed dial tone (440Hz). One or more 4-second

Pre-Dial Delay “D”s may be entered before the access number instead of a dial tone with frequency “E”. See Pre-Dial Delay;

Telephone Numbers. (Note: The panel features automatic dial-tone detection and will normally not require any “E”s. To disable this feature, program an “8” in Address Location 4084.)

If the subscriber's system uses an access number, contact the telephone-equipment supplier to find out if a dial tone other than

440Hz is received prior to dialing the access number. If the communicator must delay before dialing the access number instead of attempting to recognize the dial tone, find out how many 4-second delays must be programmed.

Ambush

A two-digit code that is entered immediately prior to (and as part of) the regular Disarm Code. This will cause a silent report to be sent to a central station. Thus, should a user be forced to disarm, he can silently signal an emergency while appearing to be merely disarming the system. The Ambush Zone will automatically report, when programmed, to report on alarm.

To program, (a) program Ambush to report on alarm; (b) enter two digits as the Ambush Code; and (c) enter an Ambush-Zone

Alarm Report Code. Each keypad is enabled for Ambush individually (see Keypad Features).

Inform the user what the Ambush Code is, and that his Arm/Disarm Code must be entered less than 10 seconds after the Ambush

Code for an ambush report to be sent.

An Ambush code should not contain digits used as the first two digits of any user code.

Anti-Jam Time

If the communicator does not detect a dial tone within 12 seconds, the Anti-Jam feature will be activated. That is, the communicator will go off line for a 16-second anti-jam interval in order to free the telephone circuit from an incoming call, then make another 12-second attempt at dial-tone detection. If still unsuccessful, the communicator will again go off line for 16 seconds, then proceed to dial anyway.

Areas

Zone Area 1-Zone Area 8

Priority Area Arming

Although the default program will automatically set up Zones 1 through 8 for Zone Area 1, the panel may be partitioned into eight areas. Each zone must be assigned to at least one area. At least one zone must be assigned to Area 1. If a burglary zone is selected for both areas, that common zone will not arm until both areas are armed. If any zone disarms, the common zone will disarm.

In a multiple-area system, be sure to also program:

Enable User Code by Area (see User Codes/Authority Levels);

Keypad Area Assignments

Bell Control (determines which bells an area may silence);

Subscriber Opening/Closing ID Numbers and Event ID Numbers (if reporting);

System Trouble Subscriber ID Number

If Priority Area Arming is selected, the Priority Area must be armed before the Arming Area can be armed.

Arm Lug (Lug E4)

Lug E4 (ARM) will go to approximately 1Vdc when all areas in the system are armed. This lug may be used for auxiliary equipment. (For use, refer to the instructions furnished with the device.)

Auto Bell Test on Arming (Required for UL Mercantile installations.)

This will activate the Burglary Output briefly 10 seconds after the area is armed. If the alarm does not sound, the device may be defective.

Auto-Bypass (Do not program for UL installations.)

Auto-Bypass Re-entry

Zones programmed for Auto-Bypass will be bypassed (automatically removed) if in trouble when arming. A momentary beep will sound at the keypad to warn that the system has been armed without the protection of the auto-bypassed zone. (Note that the exit/entry door must be closed before arming, otherwise the Exit/Entry Zone will be auto-bypassed.) Note: A zone in trouble that is not programmed for Auto-Bypass will cause an alarm on arming after a 10-second arming delay.

If Auto-Bypass Re-entry is selected, securing a zone that is programmed for Auto-Bypass, while armed, will cause that zone to re-enter the system in an armed state.

Auto Disarm Rearm Delay

If the panel was auto-disarmed on schedule and a rearm delay is programmed (see Time Selection), the panel will automatically rearm after the delay if no activity has been detected.

Automatic Interior Bypass

Interior 1 Normally Bypassed must also be programmed for this feature to work. This feature will cause all Interior-1 Zones to automatically provide protection if the Exit/Entry doors are opened during the exit-delay period. If the

E

button is pressed while armed, exit delay will restart and the Exit/Entry doors may be opened to permit someone to exit (while others remain on the premises) without causing an alarm.

Aux. Output Chirp on Key-Fob Arming

This feature will cause a 1-chirp indication on arming and 2-chirp indication on disarming. Connect steady input (burglary) of external siren driver to the panel’s Auxiliary Alarm Output. Note: Do not use an external voice siren driver.

Auto-Reset

Auto-Reset After Burglary Output Timeout

If a zone detects an alarm condition and is selected for Auto-Reset, it will automatically rearm itself as soon as the alarm condition is cleared. Auto-Reset may be delayed to occur after the Burglary Output timeout period by selecting Auto-Reset After Burglary Output

Timeout and Auto-Reset. Zones that are not programmed for Auto-Reset will not be capable of signalling another alarm until (a) the cause of the alarm has been corrected and (b) the control panel is disarmed. Also see Swinger Shutdown.

Auxiliary Relay See Alarm Outputs

Backup Report on Telco 2

If Backup Reporting is selected and the communicator does not reach the first telephone number after two attempts, seven attempts will be made to reach the second telephone number. Enter Subscriber Identification Numbers for Telephone 2 and other information required for Telephone 2. Also program Backup Report on Telco 2. Any zone programmed to report to Telco 1 will backup report to Telco 2. Note: Subscriber Identification Numbers for both Telephones 1 and 2 must be entered, even if they are the same

Battery

12Vdc standby power source in the control panel is used to provide backup protection in the event of a power loss. The battery is an integral part of the system and must be installed, even if ac power is present. Change the battery every 5 years or as required.

Bell Control

In any system, the ability to silence any combination of alarm devices (outputs) initiated from any area. Bell Control must be programmed for all systems to be able to silence an alarm. For example, in a two-area system, each area could be programmed to silence only those alarms initiated within its own area; or both areas could be programmed to silence an alarm initiated from either area.

Cancel; Cancel Code; Cancel Report to Telco 3; Cancel Window Duration

CANCEL is the preventing of a report from being sent by entering a user disarm code. If the area is disarmed during the “Pre-Alarm

Warning”, then no report will be sent and no messages will be displayed at the keypad. If the area is disarmed during the Abort-Delay, then an “Alarm Canceled’ will be displayed at the keypad and no report will be sent. If the area is disarmed during or within the Cancel

Window Duration, then an “Attempting to Cancel” will be followed by an “Alarm Canceled” for a successful cancellation. Otherwise, the report had been sent and will be responded appropriately to by the Central Station. Cancel must be provided with a Central Station

Telephone Number, proper Subscriber ID Numbers and a valid Cancel Code to Telco 3. A Cancel Window is the duration that the system will attempt to cancel a report, after the report is sent.

Chime (Displays “MONITOR” on GEM-RP2ASe2 Keypads)

This annunciator feature may be used on any zone to sound a tone at the keypad while disarmed when the zone is faulted.

Access the ACTIVATE CHIME function to enable or disable the Chime Mode from the keypad. This feature is programmable by zone and for duration of tone (see Time Selection). A time (in ¼ seconds) must be programmed for the chime to function.

Chime 2 (Displays “MONITOR” on GEM-RP2ASe2 Keypads)

For a distinct pulsating “Chime Zone” tone, program the zone for Chime 2. This feature allows zones to have distinctive annunciator chime to identify the door(s) or zone(s). “Chime” must be activated on any keypad for all area keypads to chime.

Chime on E4 Lug

The E4 Lug can now serve as an output that follows the chime sounder. This can be used where a remote sounder is needed to follow the keypad sounder. This feature can be found on the Options page of the PCD software, or you can program a bit value of 2 in the right hand side of location 2420 [!] [2].

Status Report

On arming, the communicator can transmit a unique Closing Code for each user and a status report that identifies the problem zone to the central station. Note that Subscriber Identification Numbers and a Closing Code must be entered for any closing report.

Select which users will report closings for each telephone number, even if Closing Report Only on Conditional Closing is selected.

Normally, a closing report will consist of the Closing Code and the number of the user that armed. If the user armed with an auto-bypassed zone (or selective/group bypassed zone if Include Selective/Group Bypass In Conditional Closing/Status was programmed), the Conditional Closing Code will also be sent.

Select Closing Report Only on Conditional Closing to report only when arming with an auto-bypassed zone (and selective-

/group-bypassed zone if Include Selective/Group Bypass in Conditional Closing/Status is programmed).

Select Status Report to send a closing followed by a status report that identifies the problem zone(s). A typical Status Report is represented by the following example.

Example (4/2 Format). A burglar breaks into a commercial establishment during the night, breaking the window foil on Zone 5.

The Open/Close Subscriber Identification Number is “1234”; the Alarm Code for Zone 5 is “3,5” (Burglary Zone 5); the Subscriber

Identification Number is “6789”; the Closing Code is “C”. The communicator will send the following report to the central station.

When alarm occurs:

”6789 35” - Alarm, Zone 5

Closing Report:

”1234 C1” - Closing, User 1 (User 1 returned, inspected damage & rearmed; the same transmission would occur for User 11, 21,

31, etc.)

”1234 F5” - Trouble, Zone 5 (zone status at time of closing: Window foil still broken; Zone 5 auto-bypasses, repair required; the same transmission would occur for Zone 15, 25, 35, etc.)

Cold Start

Caution: Erases the entire program (codes, schedules, etc.), leaving the panel as it came right out of the box. Access Location

4093, then press the

J button.

Data Format

Ask the central station which of these formats to use.

Two-Digit or 4/2 Format. Some central-station receivers require that a four-digit Account Code followed by a two-digit Alarm

Code be sent in each report. Example. In a certain installation, the Alarm Subscriber Number is “1234”; a burglary alarm occurs on

Zone 1. The Alarm Code for Zone 1 is “3”. The communicator will send “1234 31” (Account No. 1234; Alarm, Zone 1).

1400Hz Handshake/Kissoff. 1400Hz Handshake overrides 2300Hz Handshake if both are selected.

2300Hz Handshake/Kissoff. Used with the following receiver formats: Radionics, DCI & Franklin Slow; Radionics Fast; Sescoa,

Vertex, DCI & Franklin Fast; Radionics BFSK. 1400Hz Handshake overrides 2300Hz Handshake if both are selected.

Zone Number on Pulse Alarm. If selected, an Alarm Code need not be programmed (the zone number will replace the Alarm

Code), however codes for restore, trouble, etc. are still required. Thus, in the foregoing example, if “E” is the designated Restore

Code, and Zone 24 trips and is restored, the communicator will send “1234 24” (Account No. 1234; Alarm, Zone 24) followed by “1234

E6” (Account No. 1234; Zone 24 Restored).

Single-Digit Event Code Format. The single digit sent for a particular event can be either the Event Code or the units digit of the zone number.

Sum-Check Format. Sum Check is a sophisticated data format used to enhance the speed and check the accuracy of the received transmission. This format should be preferred whenever the central station is capable of receiving it. After transmitting the

Subscriber Identification Number and the Alarm Code, the communicator sends a verifying digit that is the sum of both. The receiver compares the verifying digit with the sum of the other numbers to check transmission accuracy.

3/1 with Extended Restores. Some receivers require a three-digit Account Code followed by a single-digit Alarm Code.

Example. In another installation, the Alarm Subscriber Number is “123”; an alarm on Zone 1 is restored. The Restore Code for Zone

1 is “E,1”. The communicator will send “123 E” (Account No. 123 Restored); followed by “EEE 1” (Restored, Zone 1).

Modem Formats. Modem formats (SIA, Point ID, Express, 4/3/1, Modem 2) are preset and automatic but require a Type for each zone. Program Zone Type as follows: Fire* = “1” (Note: Not for Modem 2 Receivers); Panic = “2”; Burglary = “3”; Holdup = “4”; Gas

Alarm = “7”; Heat Alarm = “8”; Auxiliary Alarm = “A” (Keypad displays “0”); 24-Hour Aux. Alarm = “B”.

Pager Formats. The control panel has provisions for dialing a pager phone number. The panel will wait for ringing, wait for silence, then send its data. Caution: Because there is no handshake/kissoff, this feature should only be used for Double Reporting; it may not be used for Backup Reporting. Only one report is sent for any call. Pager digits are limited to “0” through “9”. Digits represented by “A” through “F” will be converted to “0”s for transmission purposes. Pager formats are 10 digits, arranged as illustrated by the following examples.

Alarms, restores, etc. are transmitted in a 3-3-4 arrangement representing Report Code, Descriptor and Account Number.

Example 1. Burglary, Zone 22 (Report Code = “3”.)

Transmits: 003 022 1234, where

003 = Report Code (always two zeros + programmable Report-Code digit, 0–9);

022 = Descriptor (always one zero + 2-digit descriptor, zone number: 01–96);

1234 = Account Number (4 digits, programmable).

Openings, closings, etc. are transmitted in a similar arrangement

Example 2. Closing, User 12 (Closing Code = “8”)

Transmits 008 012 1234, where

008 = Report Code (always two zeros + programmable Opening/Closing digit, 0–9)

012 = Descriptor (always one zero + 2-digit descriptor (user number: 01–96);

1234 = Account Number (4 digits, programmable).

Keypad Report Codes and System Report Codes are transmitted in the same format.

Pager - Programmable Number of Resends of Report Program the number of resends to allow the panel to send multiple reports of same signal to insure that signal is received by pager.

Pager - Maximum number of reports per session. Program the maximum number of Pager reports to be sent per session.

Pager (Telco 3) Report Delay Programmable delay of the Telco 3 report (typically used for Pager Reporting) intended to allow time for central station to to allow to verify alarm report the alarm report.

Disable Auto-Reset on Day Zone

Reset Day Zone with Arm/Disarm Only

Enable Watch, Areas 1-8 (By Area)

A Day Zone will give an audible and visual indication at the keypad if there is a problem on the loop while disarmed. Open- and short-circuit conditions are programmed separately, by zone. This feature may be used to warn of a problem (a break in a window foil, for example) during the day, when the panel is not normally armed. When the Day Zone is tripped, “DAY ZONE TRBL” and the zone number(s) will alternately display at the keypad and the sounder will pulse. Press the C button to silence the sounder and reset the keypad. “ZONE FAULT” will be displayed until the condition is corrected. If Reset Day Zone With Arm/Disarm Only is programmed, arm and disarm the panel to reset the Day-Zone indication at the keypad.

If Alarm on Day Zone is programmed for a zone, a Day Zone condition will cause the alarm outputs programmed for that zone

(sirens, relays) to activate.

Note: (1) If a zone is programmed for both Day Zone Open and Day Zone Short, either condition must be reset before the other can activate. (2) Day Zone Short will not function if No EOL Resistor is also programmed.

Report Trouble or Trouble Restore is programmed in conjunction with Day Zone Open/Day Zone Short and Trouble on

Open/Trouble on Short (the trouble reported will be that programmed under Day Zone Open and/or Day Zone Short).

Note: Do not program a Day Zone for 24-hour protection. The keypad will annunciate as a Day Zone but the panel will transmit an Alarm Code and a Trouble Code when tripped.

Program Disable Auto-Reset on Day Zone to prevent repeated Day-Zone trips. This will cause the keypad display and sounder to activate only once in any arm/disarm period.

If Enable Watch is selected (by area), zones programmed for Day Zone can only be activated when ACTIVATE WATCH is accessed. Arming and disarming will turn off the Watch Mode. If Report Trouble is selected, a trouble on a Day Zone will be reported only when the Watch Mode is on.

Dial-Tone Detection

Disable Auto Dial-Tone Detection

The panel features automatic dial-tone detection to ensure that a dial tone is present before the communicator dials. To disable this feature, program an “8” in Location 4084.

When an “E” is programmed before the first digit of an outside telephone number, the communicator dial-tone detection circuit is set to detect the standard 440Hz dial tone. The “E” is generally entered in the location immediately preceding the telephone number.

It may be necessary to program at least one 4-second pre-dial delay before a dial-tone detection “E”. With certain nonstandard exchanges, pre-dial delay “D”s may be used without a dial-tone detection “E”. (See Access Number for Outside Line; Pre-Dial Delay;

Telephone Numbers.)

Digital Dialer Test

Activating the digital dialer test from the Function Menu (ACTIVATE DIALER TEST) will send the programmed report code to the central station. Program DD TEST for SYSTEM-TROUBLE REPORTS and enter a DD TEST Report Code. Note that in this case the report code received is not indicative of a system trouble, but is an indication of a successful transmission. Should the transmission fail, the keypad will display “E03-00 COMM FAIL”. This system trouble may be reset by pressing the C button. Any successful subsequent report will also clear the system trouble.

In high-security applications, program Disable Auto Status. Unsecured zones will then be indicated by a “CHECK STATUS” display. Status may be displayed manually using the DISPLAY STATUS function, however a valid user code will be required.

Disable Auto-Unbypass on Disarming

Normally, manually bypassed zones revert to active (disarmed) zones on disarming. Select this feature to maintain bypassed zones on disarming until manually unbypassed.

Disable Call Waiting (TouchTone® Dialing Only)

A digital communicator connected to a telephone line with Call Waiting may be disrupted by this feature. However, most lines with

Call Waiting also have Selective Call Waiting, which permits the feature to be turned off by dialing a “*70” just before the telephone number. A “*” will be dialed by programming a “B”.

If the installation has the Call Waiting feature, be sure that it also has Selective Call Waiting, and confirm the disable code with the telephone company. Then program this code (“B70”) directly before the phone numbers (after dial-tone detection or pre-dial delay) in the telephone-number locations. See Telephone Numbers.

Caution: Should the user cancel his Call Waiting service, the communicator will dial a wrong number unless the phone number is corrected.

Unless the keypad has been configured otherwise, the sounder will come on and will pulse during the last 10 seconds of entry delay to remind the user to disarm.

Two individually-programmable entry-delay times are provided to accommodate different entry zones. If two or more Exit/Entry

Zones are entered in succession, the delay programmed for the last Exit/Entry Zone entered will take precedence over all others.

Exit-Delay time and Entry-Delay time may each be programmed for up to 255 seconds (4 minutes). See Time Selection.

An external relay may be programmed to trip upon entry (see Programming Manual: Relay Event ID Codes, Area Entry Relays), and remain on for a programmed duration.

If the system has been armed with Exit-Delay Restart enabled, when the exit door is opened and then closed, the programmed exit delay will restart at 60 seconds. Thus, if a long exit delay is programmed, it will be reduced to 60 seconds after exiting, yet still allow reentry before entry time starts. If re-entry occurs within that 60 seconds, exit delay will restart once again (and only once again) at 60 seconds.

If re-entry occurs within 60 seconds after exit delay has expired, the alarm will sound a 2-second warning (with the entry sounder) to remind the user to disarm. (Exit-Delay Restart may be useful in reducing false alarms caused by a user who re-enters the premises shortly after exiting.)

Note: In UL installations, maximum exit delay is 60 seconds; maximum entry delay is 45 seconds. In UL Mercantile installations, maximum entry delay is 60 seconds.

Entry delay may be canceled by pressing the

F

button prior to arming, however it will be restored automatically upon disarming. (When armed with Instant protection, an “I” will appear at the right side of the display.)

Exit/Entry Follower

A zone programmed as an Exit/Entry Follower will ignore detection during the exit delay, and only during entry delay if the

Exit/Entry Zone is entered first. Thus, detection devices (passive infrared detectors, for example) along the path between the keypad and the exit/entry door will not signal an alarm during exit/entry delay under normal conditions. However, if a device in the Exit/Entry

Follower Zone detects a violation when the exit/entry door has not first been entered, there will be no entry delay and the Exit/Entry

Follower Zone will go into an instant alarm.

If the panel is armed with the entry delays canceled (Instant protection), any violation on the Exit/Entry Zone or the Exit/Entry

Follower Zone will cause an immediate alarm.

Expansion Zones

EZM Type

EZM PGM Armed Terminal Control

EZM Tamper See Tamper

Zones 9–96 are expansion zones added to the basic system using expansion zone modules (EZMs). Any combination of

GEM-EZM4 (4 zones), GEM-EZM8 (8 zones) and/or the 4-zone modules integral to each GEM-RP1CAe2 keypad may be used. Refer to Section 2: ADDING EXPANSION ZONES and the Wiring Diagram. Also see the instructions accompanying each module for wiring information.

Regardless of how the modules are arranged, the expansion zones are divided into consecutively-numbered groups of four. Each

4-zone module comprises one group of zones; each 8-zone module comprises two groups. Each group is assigned a number.

For each EZM group, program EZM Type (two nibbles, left and right), as follows: EZM Not Used: leave both nibbles blank (••);

Burglary EZM: enter “1” in the right nibble (•1).

If EZM PGM Armed Terminal Control is programmed for the EZM module, Terminal 6 on the module will go low when the areas programmed for that module are armed. This may be used to display area-armed status (for example) on an external LED. Note: (1)

This terminal is intended for connection to UL-listed devices rated 5mA maximum and capable of operating from 8.0–13.0Vdc (12V, special application). (2) In two-group modules (GEM-EZM8), only the lower of the two groups may be programmed.

Extended Format See Data Format

Fire

Keypad Fire

Any zone may be programmed for Fire. Connect normally-open devices across a Fire Zone. The EOL2.2K end-of-line resistor must be installed (4-wire smoke detectors require an FT2200 relay instead of a resistor to supervise the power to the detector). A short across the zone will cause a fire alarm, which will be indicated at the keypad by a “FIRE” LCD display and pulsing sounder. An open circuit on the Fire Zone will identify a trouble and cause flashing “FIRE” LCD display and pulsing sounder after a 10-second delay. The sounder may be silenced using the C button. The LED will go off within 30 seconds after reset if the alarm or trouble is cleared.

For Smoke-Detector Reset, see Alarm Outputs.

A fire condition that has not been restored will cause the zone number and description to scroll. To reset (acknowledge) the condition, enter a valid code, then press the

C

button.

If Keypad Fire is programmed, pressing both the

7

and the

G

keypad buttons at the same time will sound a fire panic alarm and display “******FIRE******” at the keypad. The Keypad Fire function is supplementary to the hardwired zones. Note: This feature shall not be considered a substitute for listed manual initiating devices.

Fire Alarm Verification (Not for use in California.)

Fire Zone programmed for “Fire Alarm Verification” will cause all zones to power down for 12 seconds. (All devices must be wired with + power on Terminal 28.) After this time, power is restored and a 4-second power-up time is started. Thereafter, the zone will be active again. This represents a total processing delay of 16 seconds from the time the alarm is first detected. If an alarm condition still exists at this time or reoccurs within 2 minutes, an alarm will be initiated, otherwise the zone will return to its original state. NOTE: A zone programmed for “Fire Alarm Verification” must be programmed as a “Fire Zone” as well.

Fire Output (Lug E9)

Lug E9 (FIRE) will go to about 1Vdc when a Fire Zone programmed for Fire Output is tripped. This lug may be used for auxiliary equipment. (For use, refer to the instructions furnished with the device.) Use Napco Part No. WL1 for connection.

Fire Output Cadence

The bell output will sound in a Temporal Cadence fashion in the event of a fire alarm. Program all Fire Zones or events to activate the PulseBurg Output, and program the Option PulseBurg output Cadenced.

Global System Troubles by Output

System troubles (Low Battery, AC Failure, etc.) can trip any output (Pulsed Burg, Auxiliary, etc.). Note: RF TROUBLE will report for RF Low Battery, RF Supervisory Failure or GEM-DT Self-Test Failure.

The bypassed zones may be displayed on the keypad (see GEM-RP1CAe2 FUNCTION MODE).

If Interior Normally Bypassed is selected, all Interior Zones will always be inactive. The “BYPASSED” reminder will always display, indicating that only partial protection will be provided upon arming. To temporarily restore interior protection, press the E button; the “BYPASSED” reminder will go out upon arming, denoting full protection, however Interior Zones will once again be bypassed the next time the panel is disarmed.

If Auto Interior Bypass is programmed, all Interior Zones will automatically provide protection if the Exit/Entry doors are opened during exit delay. (Note: Interior Normally Bypassed must be programmed.) If the E button is pressed while armed, exit delay will restart and Exit/Entry doors may be opened to permit someone to exit (while others remain on premises) without causing an alarm.

Key Fob Transmitters

Aux. Output Chirp on Key-Fob Arming

Burg Output Chirp on Key-Fob Arming

Don't Clear Aux. Relay with Arm/Disarm

Aux. Output Chirp on Key-Fob Arming will cause one 50 mS chirp to sound on arming and two 50mS chirps on disarming. Use the steady output of a siren driver. Do not use a voice siren driver.

Burg Output Chirp on Key-Fob Arming will cause one 50 mS chirp to sound on arming and two 50mS chirps on disarming. Use the steady output of a siren driver. Do not use a voice siren driver.

Programming a “C as the Key-Fob Aux-1 or Aux-2 option will provide the ability to toggle the Aux. Relay on or off. If there is an

Aux. Relay timeout programmed, it will follow this timeout unless toggled off by the key fob. To provide key-fob-only control, program no timeout. Program Don't Clear Aux. Relay with Arm/Disarm to prevent a disarm from resetting the Aux. Relay.

Key-fob users can report openings and closings. Key fobs 1–8 report as Users 81–96, respectively.

Keyfob Zone Assignment

Keyfobs can be assigned to zones to allow individual reporting. Each of the 4 keyfob buttons can be assigned to a zone. For example, On button = point 1; Off button = point 2; A1 = point 3; A2 = point 4. Up to 96 keyfobs can be assigned to the GEM-P9600, providing multiple wireless panic buttons on a system, each reporting to the Central Station or a pager and/or annunciating on a keypad the keyfob zone number with description/location. To assign a keyfob to a zone, program the keyfob as you would a transmitter, entering the keyfob's ID code, check sum and point number at the appropriate zone.

KeyFob or Keypad Garage Door opener control

The Auxiliary Relay can be programmed to activate for a programmable period of time. This allows it to be used for access functions such as opening and closing a garage door. This is achieved through a new KeyFob option, Access control, by programming ( Access on Aux. Output ) into the Aux. 1 or Aux. 2 option locations. Also program the option Access Control on

Auxiliary Output , and a time into the Auxiliary Output Access Control duration. If an Access Control from the keypad is desired, also program a Panel Access Code.

KeyFob Disarm Activates Entry Lighting

Disarming with a KeyFob can activate Remote Relays or X-10 Devices by programming the event EntryRelay Area1, or

EntryRelay Area2 on the External Relay Control screen. This event will cause the programmed outputs to activate on either a KeyFob

Disarm OR the opening of the Exit Entry zone while the system is armed.

Line-Reversal Module, M278

The Line-Reversal Module allows the panel to be monitored by a central station through leased lines. On alarm, the module reverses normal line-voltage polarity. For details, refer to the instructions furnished with the module.

Logging of Security Bypassed Zones

The panel will log by User, Date, Time, and Zone any zones which are bypassed with the Security Bypass Mode. This is useful in a system where openings are on 24 hour protection zones and access is only allowed if the zone is Bypassed by an authorized User, and then Unbypassed when done. A typical application would be a warehouse or shipping terminal where the overhead doors are programmed for 24 hour protection and must be Bypassed to allow access, and then Unbypassed again.

To activate this feature, DO NOT program Disable Code Required for EZ Bypass is Program BE (Bypass Enable) for each user who is to have this ability.

To Security Bypass a zone:

1. Enter Arm/ Disarm code * Code must be Bypass Enabled

2. Press the B button. The display will read, “ BYPASS ENABLED ”.

3. Press the B button, again.

4. Enter the zone #. The display will read, “ BYPASSED ZONE # ”

5. To bypass another zone, repeat steps 3 and 4.

To Arm/Disarm the system without altering the state of Bypassed zones, program the option Disable Auto-Unbypass on

Disarming. (Address Location 2417 = [4][!])

!

It is not possible to Bypass/Unbypass Zones using the Directory Mode procedure.

!

Typically, any zone, other then a fire zone, will automatically be unbypassed when the panel is disarmed. In order to unbypass a fire zone, follow procedures 1 through 4. After executing step 4 the display will read - Unbypassed, Zone #.

!

When a fire zone is bypassed the panel will go into a fire trouble condition. It will also transmit the fire trouble to the CS, if programmed to do so.

!

Zones 1-9 are entered as 01 - 09.

Loop Response (750mS required for UL installations)

Loop response is the amount of time in milliseconds (mS) that a normally-closed circuit must remain open, or a normally-open circuit must remain closed, to trigger an alarm. The slower the loop response, the more immune the system will be to intermittents

(“swingers”). Loop response times for Zones 1 through 8 are programmed into the control panel; those for Zones 9 through 96 loop responses are selected at the respective keypad configuration mode or expansion module jumper. (Refer to keypad instructions and

EZM Installation Instructions.)

Selectable loop-response times for Zones 1–8 are:

L

NAPCO Security Systems

GEM-X255 Installation Instructions

!

Page 42

WI1093A 12/01

750mS (.75 sec.): The slowest loop-response time, recommended for use with magnetic contacts, window foil, etc. Unless programmed otherwise, loop-response time will be 750mS for all zones.

50mS (.05 sec.): Used for momentary Panic Buttons and area-protection devices, such as photoelectric eyes, passive infrared sensors, floor mats, etc.

10mS (.01 sec.): An extremely fast loop response used primarily for window bugs.

Low Battery (Required for UL Mercantile installations)

A low-battery system trouble will annunciate at the keypad when the battery terminal voltage drops below normal. This condition may signal a local sounding device, report to a central station (program Panel Low Bat Report Code), or both. If a battery is installed and low terminal voltage is detected, a restore will not occur until the battery is recharged to its specified level and passes a dynamic test. The dynamic test may be initiated manually by pressing the C button, or it will be initiated automatically, every four hours, by the panel.

In wireless installations, when displaying RF transmitter status, a “LoBatt” indication denotes a low-battery condition at the transmitter.

Master Security Code

Dealer Security Code

Download Security Code

The factory-programmed Master Security Code (printed on the label affixed to the micro can) is unique and cannot be changed.

Use this code to enter the Dealer Program Mode to program (or change) the Dealer Security Code. If a Dealer Security Code is programmed, both the Dealer Security Code and the Master Security Code will work. However, should system RAM fail, only the

Master Security Code will work.

The Dealer Security Code is needed to enter the Dealer Program Mode, thus allowing the dealer to program codes, zone features, reporting features and zone descriptions (see Programming Manual WI777). This code may be changed as required.

Important! The label containing the Master Security Code should be removed. Record the code in a secure place for reference as programming changes cannot be made without it (or the Dealer Security Code).

To change the Dealer Security Code, access the Direct Address Program Mode. Advance to the “PROG” screen, then change the

6-digit code as required.

The Download Security Code is the six-digit code required to establish connection to the PCD3000 Software.

Memory Failure

A User or Dealer Memory error will cause the sounder to pulse, the “SYS/TRBL” reminder to flash, and the display to read “E19-00

USER MEM ERROR ” or “E20-00 DEALER MEM ERROR”. Press the

C button to silence the sounder (“SYSTEM READY” will display, along with the

“SYS/TRBL” reminder). Activate RESET SYSTEM TROUBLE to manually reset the system trouble. A Memory Failure can be programmed to activate an alarm output and/or report using its associated system Report Code.

Modem IIe CS Format

The GEM-P9600 control supports Radionics Modem IIe central station reporting format.

Never Arm (Do not use for primary Burglary protection)

A zone programmed as Never Arm cannot go into alarm. If tripped, it will display at the keypad when the DISPLAY STATUS function is selected. A chime will sound at the keypad while armed or disarmed, if Chime is also programmed for that zone and enabled. This feature is suggested for use as a garage-door or driveway monitor, or similar application.

No EOL Resistor

Program for any zone not wired with a 2200 Ohm end-of-line resistor (Napco Part No. EOL2.2K). This will disable any zone-short indication (if programmed, Day Zone Short is disabled). If not programmed, an end-of-line resistor must be installed. Note: This selection is automatically disabled for zones selected as Fire.

Opening Report

Opening Report Only After Alarm Report (Do not program for UL installations)

Opening and closing reports are generally used in commercial installations. On disarming, the communicator can send an

Opening Code for Users 1–96 (Opening Report), or it may transmit only when the control panel is disarmed after an alarm has been reported (Opening Report Only After Alarm Report). (Note: Key Fobs 1–8 report as Users 81–96.) Subscriber Identification Numbers and Opening Codes must be entered for either opening report.

Program Opening Report Only After Alarm Report to report only when disarming after an alarm report. This feature may be used by the central station to verify that the subscriber has responded and disarmed the panel. If Opening Report Only After Alarm Report is selected, also select Opening Report for each user.

Keypad (Police) Panic

Keypad Fire Panic See Fire

Remote Panic

The Panic Zone is always a 24-Hour Zone. Each keypad is individually selectable for keypad panics (see Keypad Features). If

Keypad Panic is programmed for a keypad, police panic is activated by simultaneously pressing the

9

and

G

buttons. If

Keypad Aux. is programmed, pressing

8

and

G

buttons simultaneously will trip an auxiliary emergency alarm. If Keypad

Fire is programmed, pressing

7

and

G

buttons at the same time will activate fire panic.

A remote panic button may be connected to a GEM-RP2ASe2 Keypad. Splice the two white wires from the keypad to a normally-open momentary-contact pushbutton. Additional panic buttons may be wired in parallel with the first. If remote panic will not be used, insulate both white wires, as a short across them will cause a panic alarm. (In UL installations, remote-panic buttons must be located within 3 feet of the keypad, with no intervening walls or barriers.

Power-Up Delay

If programmed, power-up will be delayed for 5 minutes to allow devices such as PIRs time to stabilize (warm up). This will prevent false alarms when ac power is restored after a long power outage and the backup battery is discharged.

Pre-Alarm Warning (Not for UL applications)

Programmable by zone, this feature will cause an alarm to sound only at the keypad for the duration of the programmed abort delay (see Abort Delay; Time Selection). After the delay has elapsed, the alarm output will activate and a report will be sent. Note: If no Abort Delay time is programmed, Pre-Alarm Warning time will be 10 seconds.

Pre-Dial Delay

A Pre-Dial Delay may be used whenever a delay is required before dialing. It may be required when programming Dial-Tone

Detection, which causes the communicator to wait before it attempts to detect a dial tone (see Dial-Tone Detection). Certain telephone exchanges send a nonstandard dial tone that the communicator may not be able to detect. With these nonstandard exchanges, it is possible to program Pre-Dial Delay rather than Dial-Tone Detection. This will cause the communicator to wait for a predetermined period of time before dialing rather than look for a nonstandard dial tone.

Contact the telephone-equipment supplier to find out how long a delay is required before dialing. Select Pre-Dial Delay by programming one “D” for each 4-second delay required immediately before the telephone number. Note: In UL installations, do not program more than one “D” before the telephone number.

See Backup Report on Telco 2; Report Telco 3 (Double or Split Reporting). Also see Access Number for Outside Line; Telephone

Numbers.

Priority Area Arming

Prevents area arming if the alternate Priority Area has not yet been armed.

Priority Zone (Required for all zones in UL installations.)

A zone that will prevent arming if in trouble. If an attempt is made to arm, the sounder will come on and “ZONES NOT NORMAL/CAN'T

ARM” will be displayed for 4 seconds. The keypad may be reset by simply pressing the

J button. The problem on a Priority Zone must be corrected before the panel can be armed.

Any zone may be selected as a Priority Zone. A zone in trouble that is neither a Priority Zone nor an Auto-Bypass Zone will cause an alarm on arming.

Priority Zone with Bypass

A Priority Zone that will permit arming if the priority condition is bypassed. If the system is so programmed, the zone will auto-bypass and (optional) the condition will be reported to a central station.

As above, if an attempt is made to arm, the sounder will come on and “ZONES NOT NORMAL/CAN'T ARM” will be displayed. To reset the keypad, press the

J button; the display will read “ZONE FAULTS”. To arm the panel, press the C button, then enter the User Code.

Any or all zones (1–96) programmed for Selective Bypass may be removed from the system, but each must be removed separately. Refer to BYPASSING ZONES in Section 3 for operation.

Security Bypass, recommended for commercial applications, requires entry of a valid user code.

Easy Bypass, recommended for residential applications, is selected by programming Disable Code Entry for Easy Bypass; this will permit bypassing/unbypassing zones without the need of entering a code (see Easy Bypass in Section 3). Do not program this feature in high-security applications.

When one or more zones is bypassed, the “BYPASSED” reminder on the GEM-RP1CAe2 keypad will display.

Sensor Watch

Program for any zone containing a PIR or dual-technology sensor, floor mats, door contacts, or other device where some activity is expected. This feature supervises the sensor by verifying that the zone activates before the PIR timer runs out. If no trip is detected within the programmed Sensor-Watch time, a system trouble will result and “E22-NN PIR SENSOR TRBL” will be displayed at the keypad, where NN are the zone number(s). Select the RESET SENSOR MSG function to reset this system trouble.

Program the Sensor-Watch PIR timer in Location 4088. Select a value in accordance with the anticipated activity within the coverage area while disarmed. In calculating the Sensor-Watch time, note that only the disarmed hours (the time between armed periods) are added. In moderate traffic areas, a Sensor-Watch time of perhaps 1 hour may be appropriate, whereas in remote areas, a time of 8 hours or more may be in order. Supervision time should be calculated for the supervised zone with the least amount of traffic. Up to 255 hours may be programmed (see Time Selection).

Start Exit Delay After Ringback

When a closing report is successfully received, the central station will acknowledge by returning a kissoff signal. When the kissoff is received by the communicator, a 2-second ringback tone will sound at the keypad. Start Exit Delay After Ringback will cause the exit delay to start after the ringback sounds.

If this option is chosen and no ringback sounds shortly after the control panel is armed, exit delay will not start and opening the exit/entry door will cause an instant alarm. To manually start the exit delay, select the START EXIT TIME function, then press the

J button to execute.

Note: (1) If this feature is selected, Exit/Entry Follower Zones will not arm until either a ringback sounds or the START EXIT TIME function is used. (2) If communicator, telephone lines or central-station receiver is out of service, the system will be armed without communication capability.

Status Report See Closing Report

Subscriber Identification Numbers

If reporting openings and/or closings, program Subscriber Opening/Closing Identification Numbers for each area for each telephone number used. If reporting events, program Subscriber ID Numbers for each area for each telephone number used.

Subscriber ID numbers must be programmed for each area and telephone number, even if all are the same. Start with the left-most location.

Sum Check See Data Format

Supervised Bell Output

When the option Supervised Bell Output is enabled, a 2.2K ohm resistor must be installed across the bell or sounding device terminals. In the event that the Burg Output is cut, or the circuit is opened, an E51-00 FIRE BELL TRBL trouble condition will occur.

Note: Due to the fact that there is a constant loop current flowing through the Burg Output circuit for supervision, some sirens or siren drivers may emit a low volume hum or buzz if the 2.2K EOL resistor is not installed. If Supervised Bell Output is not required, this can be eliminated by cutting resistor R207 which is located just to the right of the Burg Output relay adjacent to the Burg Output terminal.

Suppress “BYPASSED” Reminder When Armed (Must be enabled in all UL systems)

Program to inhibit the LCD “BYPASSED” display while armed.

Swinger Shutdown (Do not program for UL Installations.)

Program for zones with Auto-Reset to only reset twice (3 alarms) until rearmed to prevent “swingers” (intermittents) from causing repeated false alarms. See Auto-Reset. The Swinger-Shutdown feature is programmable by zone, but is not applicable to Ambush.

System Troubles (Global and Area)

System troubles may be programmed to report to any telephone number and/or activate any output. Also program Subscriber ID

Numbers, Telephone Numbers, and Report Codes for each system trouble.

Note: RF TROUBLE will report for RF Low Battery, RF Supervisory Failure or GEM-DT Self-Test Failure.

System Trouble Audible Automatic Timeout

Inhibit System Trouble Audible

In the event of a System Trouble while the system is disarmed, the keypad will scroll the trouble description in the display and activate the sounder until [RESET] is pressed. If [RESET] has not been pressed within 10 minutes of the trouble, the sounder will automatically turn off in 10 minutes.

To disable System Trouble Audible Automatic Timeout , enable Disable System Trouble Audible Timeout in the PCD3000

Keypad Features screen. NOTE: If the system were Armed when the trouble occurred, the keypad would display the SYS TBL icon, but NOT activate the sounder.

For installations where an audible on system trouble is not desired at all, the option, Inhibit System Trouble Audible can be enabled. Regardless of the system status, Armed or Disarmed, there will be no keypad sounder at all in the event of a system trouble. However, the trouble will still scroll in the keypad display until [RESET] is pressed and the SYS TBL icon will display until the trouble is restored. (Do Not program in UL Installations)

To disable System Trouble Audible, enable the option disable System Trouble Audible in the PCD3000 Keypad Features screen.

Telephone Numbers

Dialing Prefix

To report to a central station, Telephone Number 1 must be programmed. Telephone Number 2 is programmed for Backup

Reporting; Telephone Number 3 is programmed for Double or Split Reporting.

Private telephone systems may require a Dial-Tone Detection “E” or Pre-Dial Delay “D”, followed by an access number to obtain an outside line. (See Access Number for Outside Line.)

It should be noted here that the telephone number need not actually start in the first location shown, and may not end in the last.

Extra locations have been provided to allow for one or more prefix digits: a Pre-Dial Delay “D” or a Dial-Tone Detection “E”. What is important is that the telephone number, with its associated Pre-Dial Delay, Access Number, and Dial-Tone Detection, be wholly contained within that group of locations, and that they be in their proper sequence.

If needed, a Dialing Prefix of up to 20 digits may be programmed. This prefix will be dialed immediately before the programmed

Central Station telephone numbers.

Test Timer

Cancel Next Test Timer Report on Any Report

The test timer schedule is programmed using NAPCO's PCD3000 Quickloader Software. If Test Timer is programmed, an automatic test report will be transmitted to the central station on the scheduled day(s) at the scheduled time. (UL installations require a report at least every 24 hours.) To report test timer, select Report Test Timer and program a report code. Program the Test Timer event schedule and reporting time.

If Cancel Next Test Timer Report on Any Report is programmed, any report will cause the next test-timer transmission to be aborted, however subsequent test-timer transmissions will report as scheduled. Do not program this feature in UL installations.

1. For the feature selected, choose an appropriate time in units shown (all seconds, minutes, hours, or days — not minutes and seconds, etc.).

2. Divide the time chosen by 16. Enter the quotient in the 1st BOX and the remainder in the 2nd BOX.

3. Check entries by adding the contents of the 2nd BOX to 16 times the contents of the 1st BOX. (Remember that a “zero” entry represents 10.)

Example. Program Entry Delay 1 for 1 minutes.

1. Entry Delay 1 is in units of seconds, thus delay time is 90 seconds.

2. Divide by 16: 90/16 = 5 (quotient) + 10 (remainder).

3. Enter the quotient in the 1st BOX and the remainder in the 2nd BOX

Trouble

An abnormal zone condition (a break in a normally-closed loop; a short on a normally-open loop; or either on an end-of-lineresistor supervised loop) when disarmed.

Trouble on a Burglary Zone is automatically displayed at the keypad unless Disable Auto Status is programmed. If a Burglary

Zone is in trouble, it will go into alarm about 10 seconds after arming. However, if Auto Bypass is programmed, the keypad will beep upon arming (does not apply to selective- or group-bypassed zones).

Trouble (open and/or short circuit) on a Day Zone is indicated by a pulsing sounder; display the Day Zone(s) in trouble on the

LCD. Keypad indications are reset by the C button unless Reset Day Zone With Arm/Disarm is selected.

Trouble on a Fire Zone will be indicated by the “FIRE/TRBL” reminder and the sounder. An open circuit (trouble) will cause a flashing

“FIRE” display and a pulsing sounder after a 15-second delay. (A short circuit will cause an alarm condition: steady-on “FIRE” display and pulsing sounder.) The C button will silence the sounder. Clear the trouble, then press the C button once again. The keypad will reset after a brief delay.

Trouble on Open

Trouble on Short

Trouble on Night Open (Not for UL installations)

Trouble on Open will identify an open circuit on a loop as a trouble. Trouble on Short will identify a short circuit as a trouble.

Trouble on Night Open, which will identify an open circuit on a normally-closed zone while armed as a trouble condition (not an alarm), is intended for use with a Napco Monitor-Series dual-technology sensor. While there will be no indication at the keypad, any of these trouble conditions can be reported if Report Trouble is programmed as well. See Sensor Watch.

Zone ANDing, Groups 1–2 (Not for UL installations)

Enable Local Alarm on First Zone “AND” Trip (Not for UL installations)

Up to eight groups of at least two zones each can be “AND”ed, wherein the system will go into alarm only if any two zones of the group are tripped within a prescribed time. This feature is designed to afford redundant protection for devices, such as glassbreak detectors, PIRs, etc., that may show a tendency to false under certain conditions. Program each group for any number of Zones 1–96.

All zones in any group must be within the same area. Do not mix 24-Hour Zones and non-24-Hour Zones within the same group. Do not include a Panic Zone as part of any group.

Note: Any zone that is bypassed or goes into swinger shutdown will automatically disable Zone Anding for the entire group.

If Enable Local Alarm on First Zone “AND” Trip is programmed, a trip on any zone of the group will cause an alarm indication at the keypad only; there will be no communication to the central station.

STATEMENT FOR CANADIAN MODELS

NOTICE: The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements. The

Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.

Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.

Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.

Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.

NOTICE: The ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to each terminal device provides an indication of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to telephone interface. The termination of an interface may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence

Numbers of all the devices does not exceed 5.

NAPCO SECURITY SYSTEMS, INC. (NAPCO) warrants its products to be free from manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for thirty-six months following the date of manufacture. NAPCO will, within said period, at its option, repair or replace any product failing to operate correctly without charge to the original purchaser or user.

This warranty shall not apply to any equipment, or any part thereof, which has been repaired by others, improperly installed, improperly used, abused, altered, damaged, subjected to acts of God, or on which any serial numbers have been altered, defaced or removed. Seller will not be responsible for any dismantling or reinstallation charges.

THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR

IMPLIED, WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE

DESCRIPTION ON THE FACE HEREOF. THERE IS NO

EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF

MERCHANTABILITY OR A WARRANTY OF FITNESS

FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. ADDITIONALLY, THIS

WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER OBLIGATIONS

OR LIABILITIES ON THE PART OF NAPCO.

Any action for breach of warranty, including but not limited to any implied warranty of merchantability, must be brought within the six months following the end of the warranty period.

IN NO CASE SHALL NAPCO BE LIABLE TO ANYONE

FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL

DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY OTHER

WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EVEN IF THE

LOSS OR DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY THE SELLER'S

OWN NEGLIGENCE OR FAULT.

In case of defect, contact the security professional who installed and maintains your security system. In order to exercise the warranty, the product must be returned by the security professional, shipping costs prepaid and insured to NAPCO. After repair or replacement, NAPCO assumes the cost of returning products under warranty.

NAPCO shall have no obligation under this warranty, or otherwise, if the product has been repaired by others, improperly installed, improperly used, abused, altered, damaged, subjected to accident, nuisance, flood, fire or acts of God, or on which any serial numbers have been altered, defaced or removed. NAPCO will not be responsible for any dismantling, reassembly or reinstallation charges.

This warranty contains the entire warranty. It is the sole warranty and any prior agreements or representations, whether oral or written, are either merged herein or are expressly cancelled. NAPCO neither assumes, nor

NAPCO LIMITED WARRANTY

authorizes any other person purporting to act on its behalf to modify, to change, or to assume for it, any other warranty or liability concerning its products.

In no event shall NAPCO be liable for an amount in excess of NAPCO's original selling price of the product, for any loss or damage, whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or otherwise arising out of any failure of the product. Seller's warranty, as hereinabove set forth, shall not be enlarged, diminished or affected by and no obligation or liability shall arise or grow out of

Seller's rendering of technical advice or service in connection with Buyer's order of the goods furnished hereunder.

NAPCO RECOMMENDS THAT THE ENTIRE SYSTEM

BE COMPLETELY TESTED WEEKLY.

Warning: Despite frequent testing, and due to, but not limited to, any or all of the following; criminal tampering, electrical or communications disruption, it is possible for the system to fail to perform as expected. NAPCO does not represent that the product/system may not be compromised or circumvented; or that the product or system will prevent any personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; nor that the product or system will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. A properly installed and maintained alarm may only reduce risk of burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise but it is not insurance or a guarantee that these events will not occur. CONSEQUENTLY, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO

LIABILITY FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY

DAMAGE, OR OTHER LOSS BASED ON A CLAIM THE

PRODUCT FAILED TO GIVE WARNING. Therefore, the installer should in turn advise the consumer to take any and all precautions for his or her safety including, but not limited to, fleeing the premises and calling police or fire department, in order to mitigate the possibilities of harm and/or damage.

NAPCO is not an insurer of either the property or safety of the user's family or employees, and limits its liability for any loss or damage including incidental or consequential damages to NAPCO's original selling price of the product regardless of the cause of such loss or damage.

Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or differentiate in their treatment of limitations of liability for ordinary or gross negligence, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
