NAPCO Gemini GEM-P816 User manual

GEM-TOUCH Keypad Installation Instructions 1
push the wire back into the drilled wall center hole until the rear
case is flat against the wall surface. Insert screws through the
rear case mounting holes and secure.
If replacing an existing Gemini keypad: Use the Wall Plate
Adapter instructions on page 2. Use the existing 4-wire or 14-
pin harness.
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.
Note: Do not over tighten the mounting screws! An uneven
surface may cause the keypad case to distort.
Assemble the keypad by placing the top edge of the keypad
front case over the two hooks at the top of the rear case. Push
the bottom of the keypad until it snaps together.
OPTION JUMPER
Cut wire loop W1 to enable S1 tamper switch.
DESCRIPTION
The GEMINI GEM-TOUCH keypad is compatible with the
NAPCO Gemini Series GEM-P816, GEM-P1632, GEM-
P1664, GEM-P3200, GEM-X255 and GEM-P9600. Note: For
systems with multiple keypads, all keypads must be all
"classic" (GEM-RP prefix) or all "K Series" (GEM-K prefix).

SPECIFICATIONS
See product label.
Boot Current: 249mA peak
Nominal Operating Current: 148mA peak
Current During USB Update: 198mA peak
PGM: Maximum 5mA, +12V nominal.
Environmental: 32°F to 122°F (0°C to 50°C)
INSTALLING THE KEYPAD
Requires power from the control panel bus (observe current
limitations) or an un-switched separate power supply (panel
ground must be common with power supply ground). Select a
location that allows the power wires to be hidden within the
mounting surface. Requires a battery backup power source to
avoid troubles if power is interrupted. Mount a keypad near
each exit/entry door (indoors locations only). In Residential
Fire Installations, Home Run all keypads. Note: The keypad
fire and panic buttons are not a substitute for a listed manual
initiating device (such as a pull box).
Do not power the keypad during the mounting process. De-
tach the rear case by pressing the two push-tabs at the bot-
tom, then unhook and detach.
For new installations: Use the rear case as a template to
mark the mounting holes (always use a level to ensure hori-
zontal mounting). Mark the center hole for the power wire,
then use a 1/2" drill bit to drill the center hole. Snake the pow-
er wire inside the wall and out through the drilled center hole.
If mounting to hollow drywall or similar surface, we recommend
using wall anchors or similar hardware appropriate for the in-
stallation. Firmly connect the power wire connectors and then

2GEM-TOUCH Keypad Installation Instructions
CONFIGURING THE GEM-TOUCH
A total of up to 15 GEM-TOUCH keypads may be connect-
ed to the control panel. Each GEM-TOUCH keypad can be
configured for its keypad address, EZM address and zone
response.
Enter System Settings
1. At the keypad Home screen, tap the
System Settings ("gears") icon (shown
at right).
2. Using the number buttons that appear,
enter the Keypad Configuration Code
(1 1 1 2 3), followed by Enter.
3. In the System Settings screen, tap Dealer KP Config:
The following screen appears:
EZM Config
The keypad's internal EZM (Expansion Zone Module) may
be utilized to provide four additional wired zones. Whether
used alone or in conjunction with optional GEM-EZM se-
ries modules or other keypad EZMs, it must be assigned a
unique address (or Group number, see the control panel
Programming Instructions) similar to its keypad address. If
no other EZMs are to be used, set "0" (disabled) for Set
EZM Address. In multiple-EZM systems, enter an as-
signed group number "1" through "22". (Each EZM must
have a unique assigned group number, starting with "1"
and proceeding consecutively). Tap Save to continue or
tap Exit to return to the previous screen without saving
your changes.
Zone Response
The normal loop response of each keypad expansion zone
is 750mS, however the response time of any zone can be
reduced to 50mS by simply adding a check to the ckeck-
box for the selected 50mS zone (tap to add a check).
When finished, tap Save to continue or tap Exit to return to
the previous screen without saving your changes.
Keypad Config (Keypad Address)
If more than one keypad is installed, each must be as-
signed a unique keypad address (that is, no two keypads
may be numbered alike). Note: From the factory, the
GEM-TOUCH keypad is addressed as "00", not "01" like
our other Gemini GEM-RP1 or GEM-K1 keypads. In addi-
tion, please note:
• Keypads must be numbered consecutively (missing
numbers are not permitted)
• Only Keypad No. 1 may be used for User program-
ming.
To assign the keypad number, proceed as follows:
1. Tap the Set KP Address number button.
2. Using the number buttons that appear, enter the Keypad
number (1-7), followed by Enter.
• Ensure that the new number selected appears on the
Set KP Address button. A valid number will be
acknowledged by a short beep; an invalid number
will be rejected by a long beep.
3. Tap Save to continue or tap Exit to return to the pre-
vious screen without saving your changes.
Keypad Model Type
Use the K_KP checkbox to configure the GEM-TOUCH to
operate as either a "classic" model GEM-Rp1CAe2 or as a
"K Style" GEM-K1CA by adding or removing a check, as
follows:
• Add a check for the "K Style"
model GEM-K1CA
• Remove check for the "classic"
model GEM-Rp1CAe2
Tap Save to continue or tap Exit to return to the previous
screen without saving your changes.

GEM-TOUCH Keypad Installation Instructions 3
Installing the GEM-TOUCH Wall Plate Adapter
The GEM-TOUCH Wall Plate Adapter allows you to easily cover the larger
Gemini "RP classic" or "K-series" keypad footprint with the smaller GEM-
TOUCH Color Security Touchscreen Keypad (shown at right). The
mounting plate is optional for new GEM-TOUCH installations.
The Wall Plate Adapter can be mounted directly to a wall using the exist-
ing keypad mounting holes or to an existing 2-gang or single-gang electri-
cal box. Finishing "screw caps" press into each screw hole after mount-
ing. Mount the keypad rear housing to the Wall Plate using two screws,
provided.
The existing keypad wire harness plug must extend several inches from
the wall, through the Wall Plate Adapter opening, in order to reach the
new GEM-TOUCH keypad header socket. If longer wires are needed, splice in the included wire harness
plug (part W834J-1), ensuring each wire color splice matches the existing wire colors. Note: Remove
power prior to splicing.

To mount to a 2-gang box (shown at

on the rear of the Wall Plate. If mount-
ing to a single-gang box, drill through
two of the rear bosses only. Note: We
recommend using countersink screws
when mounting the plate to a gang box.
Be sure to drill a countersink hole in the
plastic to ensure the screw head does
not interfere with the GEM-TOUCH key-
pad rear housing. At the end of the in-
stallation, ensure the keypad is level.
