Key-Fob

Transmitter

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The GEM-KEYF is a long-range multifunction pendant/
keychain transmitter compatible with Napco GEM-Series wire­less systems. It serves as an area arm/disarm device with two
auxiliary functions, however it may be converted for use as a
police panic and/or auxiliary emergency transmitter using other
button options supplied. Two 1.5V Batteries power the GEM­KEYF transmitter. A flashing LED indication signals a low­battery warning to replace the unit.

The GEM-KEYF leaves the factory as a remote area arm/
disarm transmitter (ON/OFF) with two Auxiliary buttons, A1 and
A2. Auxiliary functions are selected by programming Key Fob
Transmitter Aux 1 and Aux 2 options: Panic, Auxiliary, or Instant
protection. In addition, any of the panel's Relay Groups may be
selected for controlling garage doors, exterior lighting, or other
applications requiring external relays (RM3000 Relay Modules,
optional).

Pressure-sensitive labels are supplied for identification of
the Auxiliary Buttons.

Note: The Aux 1 Button and Aux 2 Button must each be
held down for approximately 2 seconds before the respective

Factory-supplied functions: Arm, Disarm, Aux. 1 and Aux. 2

signal will be sent. The LED will light while the unit is transmit­ting.
Low-Battery Check. The batteries are checked automatically
during any transmission. A low-battery condition will cause the

Supplied options for emergency use

LED to come on for twice the normal time, then start pulsing
about once every 1.5 seconds; a low-battery report will be sent
to the receiver.

Converting for Emergency Use

To convert the GEM-KEYF for use as a two-button police
and/or auxiliary emergency transmitter, proceed as follows.
(This requires that both buttons be pressed at the same time to
signal an emergency.)

1. Remove the screw that secures the case and lift off the
top cover.

2. Remove the rubber Button Assembly.
