INTRODUCTION
The GEM-RP3DGTL is a “smart”, interactive, menu-driven keypad designed for your Napco control panel. A
digital display is provided to show the
status of your system.
This booklet contains important information about the operation of your system with this GEM-RP3DGTL Keypad.
Read it carefully and keep it handy for
future reference. Check the Glossary
for an explanation of terms that may be
unfamiliar to you.
You'll probably find subjects mentioned in this booklet that do not
apply to your system. Napco control
panels have such a wide variety of
features that few security systems, if
any, will ever need them all. Your
alarm professional has chosen appropriate features for your particular
needs.
Regardless of how your system has
been configured, rest assured that it
has been carefully designed and en-

• If the green light is off, the number(s) of any unsecured zone(s) will display in the
window. Note each problem zone and secure it by closing a window, door, etc. When
all zones are secure, the green STATUS light will come on.
• Bypass faulted zones. If you cannot locate or repair the problem yourself, call for
assistance. If you cannot get immediate help, bypass the problem zone(s) from the
system by pressing the B button, then the zone number (or vice versa).
Note: Bypassed zones are unprotected. If armed with zones bypassed, be sure to have
the system checked as soon as possible.
2. Arm the system. Enter your code and press the Jbutton. The green STATUS light will
go off, the red ARMED light will come on. Note: If you enter an invalid code, the keypad will
beep 4 times, signifying an error. Re-enter your code immediately.
3. Leave the premises. Leave through the exit door before exit time expires.
Priority Arming. If you attempt to arm a faulted Priority Zone, a 3-second tone will sound at
the keypad and “P” will display in the window, indicating that the trouble(s) must be corrected
before the panel can be armed. A zone selected as Priority Zone with Bypass (check your
Alarm Plan) may be bypassed if in trouble. If the problem cannot be corrected immediately,
press the C button, then arm the panel. A 3-second beep will sound at the panel to
indicate arming with a Priority Zone in trouble. Be sure to have the trouble repaired as soon
as possible.

Manager's Mode. The Manager's Mode, if enabled, provides quick access to other
areas without the system status display. (This is not a high-security feature.)
To arm any area,

2. Press the G button then the Jbutton. In effect, you will now be in that area.
3. Enter your code, then press the Jbutton to arm. Note: Your code must be valid in
that area.
To arm all areas simultaneously (including the area you are in), press 9, G, enter
your code and press the Jbutton.
If any zone is not secured, the keypad will display “P”. All problem zones in the
respective area(s) must be secured or bypassed before the area can be armed. Note: If a

Bypassing Interior Zones
BYPASSFIRE/TBL
INTERIOR
Interior Zones, when bypassed, allow free movement within the premises while
the protection of armed perimeter zones is maintained. If the E button is
pressed, all Interior Zones will be bypassed upon arming. Some control panels
have provisions for two groups of Interior Zones.
Enter your code, then press the Jbutton. The red ARMED light will come on
and the green STATUS light will blink, indicating zones bypassed. After the exit
time has elapsed, the BYPASS and INTERIOR arrows will display in the window.
Instant Protection
When retiring for the evening, after everyone is at home, you will probably want
to cancel the entry delay on the Entry Zone(s). Then, if armed, opening the entry
door will cause an instant alarm. (When arming, exit delay will remain in effect.)
To cancel the entry delay while on the premises, merely press the F button.
(it may be pressed either before or after arming.)
Note: While armed, the red ARMED light will flicker rapidly to indicate instant
protection.

TURNING OFF THE ALARM (DISARMING) WHEN RETURNING

To silence an audible alarm,
