INTRODUCTION

The GEM-DXRP1 is a “smart” user- friendly, interactive menu-driven keypad designed for your Napco control panel. Its alphanumeric screen will not only display the status of your system, but will also give you step-by-step instructions to guide you through all operations.

This booklet contains important information about the operation of your system with this GEM-DXRP1 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 engineered to the highest industry standards. To assure optimum safety and security, familiarize yourself with this equipment. Periodically check its condition and state of readiness by testing it at least once a week in both the ac/battery and battery-only modes (ask your alarm professional how to make these tests).
