This section provides a brief overview of system operation. For detailed operation, refer to the User's Guide fur-
nished with the keypad (OI234 for the GEM-RP1CAe2; OI192 for the GEM-RP2ASe2) and to the Keypad Programming
Modes at the end of this manual. NOTE: Keypad displays shown in this text are for the GEM-RP1CAe2 keypad. GEM-
RP2ASe2 displays will be similar, although abbreviated, and will scroll automatically.
"#
(Refer to the GEM-P1632 Programming Instructions (WI897) for a detailed explanation of programming.) Up to 32
personal user codes may be programmed at the keypad. NOTE: The Area Options 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 (User 01) code, “U01 123 • • • - • • - • • ”, (1,2,3), which should
not be selected as a user code.
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 cancelled without af-
fecting other codes, and that user would then be prevented from entry. NOTE: Napco's PCD3000 Quickloader Software
provides enabling and disabling User Codes at programmed times using the scheduling menus. Ambush code should
not contain digits used as the first digits of any user code.
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
activated by arming with it; an “S” will appear in the display (GEM-RP1CAe2 only) 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.
Access Code
The Access Code will trip the panel's PGM2 Output Relay while disarmed if “Access Control on PGM2 Output” and
“PGM2 Output Access Control Time” is programmed. The Access Code is programmed as any other User Code but
without arm/disarm capability.
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).
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.
