KEYPAD CONFIGURATION MODE
This section will focus on configuring the GEM-RP1CAe2/GEM-K1CA and GEM-RP2ASe2/GEM-K2AS Keypads. We recommend
that either a GEM-RP1CAe2 or a GEM-K1CA keypad be used for programming.
KEYPAD INSTALLATION
Each keypad must be assigned an address number (1–7) and each requires its own configuration procedure (see CONFIGURING
THE KEYPADS, which follows, and DIRECT ADDRESS KEYPAD AREA OPTIONS). At least 1 keypad must be used; only 1 is
required for a single-area Commercial Burglary installation.
• GEM-RP1CAe2/GEM-K1CA - is a 2-line combination fire/burglary/access keypad capable of supporting 4 EZM zones. A GEM-
RP1CAe2 or GEM-K1CA is recommended for use with programming.
• GEM-RP2ASe2/GEM-K2AS - is a utility LCD keypad combining several preset LCD words with a limited message line. NOTE:
Due to space constraints, available messages are abbreviated and will scroll automatically.
CONFIGURING THE KEYPADS
A total of up to 7 keypads may be connected to the panel. GEM-RP1CAe2/GEM-K1CA and GEM-RP2ASe2/GEM-K2AS keypads may
be intermixed but require different configuration procedures, as described in the following paragraphs. If you have a GEM-K1CA key-
pad, please see the "Important Note" on page 5 regarding the differences between the GEM-RP1CAe2 and the GEM-K1CA keypad
buttons. The buttons displayed below will be for the GEM-K1CA keypad.
Configuring the GEM-RP1CAe2/GEM-K1CA Keypad
Each GEM-RP1CAe2/GEM-K1CA keypad must be configured for (a) keypad tactile beep; (b) entry
sounder; (c) keypad address; (d) EZM address; and (e) zone response.
To enter the GEM-RP1CAe2/GEM-K1CA Configuration Mode:
1. Move jumper JP1 (located at the upper center of the control panel board) from Pins 1-2 (top two) to
Pins 2-3 (bottom two). NOTE: See the Wiring Diagram.
2. After about 15 seconds, the display will read “XX OUT OF SYSTEM”, where XX indicates the keypad
address.
3. Press
11123 R and proceed as follows. (Repeat the following procedure for all keypads.)
Keypad Tactile Beep
Upon entering the Keypad Configuration Mode, “KEYPAD BEEP ON” will be displayed,
indicating that the tactile beep, which sounds when any button is pressed, is on.
To turn off the tactile beep, press the
U or D button (the U or D button will
toggle the tactile beep on and off). Press the A or R button to continue
or press the
C button to exit.
Entry Sounder
To turn off the keypad sounder during entry time, press the U or D button (the
U or D button will toggle the entry sounder on and off). Press the A or
R button to continue or press the C button to exit.
Keypad Address
If more than one keypad is installed, each must be assigned a unique keypad
address (that is, no two keypads may be numbered alike):
keypads must be numbered consecutively (missing numbers are not
permitted)
To assign the keypad number, proceed as follows:
1. Enter the assigned keypad number 01–07, then press the U or D button to save. A valid number will be acknowledged by a
short beep; an invalid number will be rejected by a long beep.
2. Press the
A or R button to continue or press the C button to exit.
