INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
DIGITAL KEYPAD
The GEM-RP8LCD is a user-friendly, menu-driven digital keypad that is
compatible with the NAPCO GEM-Series GEM-P800, P801, and P400
control-panels. Refer to User Guide OI276 for operation instructions.
While the GEM-RP8 may be used to fully program any of the previous
listed panels, the GEM-RP8LCD keypad provides the optimum in ease
of keypad and panel programming. In addition, to ease installation, the
RP8LCD includes an internal Expansion Zone Module (EZM) inside the
keypad itself.
SPECIFICATIONS
Operating Voltage: 12 V DC (supplied by panel)
Current Drain: 100 mA Standby
35 mA (cut Jumpers W1, W2 and W3)
Dimensions: 4 3/8” x 5 7/8” x 1 1/8”
Subtract keypad current from combined auxiliary current of the
Note:
control panel.
MOUNTING THE KEYPAD
A keypad should be located near each exit/entry door. To open the
case, insert a screwdriver into either slot at the bottom and push up with
a slight twisting motion to release the retainer tab. Repeat for the other
slot. Pull out at the bottom and lift off the two hooks at the top.
The GEM-RP8LCD features a handy pull-up reference label. (This label
must be used in UL installations). 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:
The
keypad fire and panic keys should not be considered a substitute for a
listed manual initiating device, such as a pull box.
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
over tighten the screws! Uneven walls may cause the keypad case to
distort.

Ambush Code
The Ambush Code is a special four-digit code entered by the user to
disarm, 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.
In dealer mode, program Ambush [20-4]. If enabled, the 8th User Code
will send an Ambush report when entered to disarm the system.
Additional Programming required:
• Program User 8 Arm/Disarm Code.
• Select reporting to Telco 1 [36-2] or Telco 3 [56-2].

NAPCO LIMITED WARRANTY
NAPCO SECURITY SYSTEMS, INC. (NAPCO)
warrants its products to be free from manufacturing
defects in materials and workmanship for
months
following the date of manufacture. NAPCO will,
thirty-six
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
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.
