BASIC OPERATION
This section provides a brief overview of system operation.
For detailed operation, refer to the User's Guide furnished
with the keypad and to the Keypad Programming Modes
located at the end of this manual.
DEFAULT PROGRAM
The Gemini C-Series control panels will function as a
local Fire and/or Burglary alarm control panel right out
of the box! The default program is entered at the facto-
ry; it is the installer's responsibility to add, change and/
or delete features in accordance with these instructions
to customize the system to the user's requirements and
to conform to local codes. See the Installation Instruc-
tions Volume 2 (WI1653-2) for a complete description
of the factory default program.
CENTRAL STATION REPORTING
The following additional programming is required for
central station reporting.
Report on Alarm
Subscriber ID (Account) Numbers, Groups 1 & 2*
Receiver Format*
Data Format*
Telephone Number*
*Obtained from central station.
Note: Remember, for optimum security, the follow-
ing code must also be reprogrammed:
User 1 Code (see User Keypad Programming, be-
low). For other programming, see the Gemini C-
Series control panel programming instructions,
WI1673.
KEYPAD PROGRAMMING
(GEMC-FK1 or GEMC-BK1 Burg-Only Systems)
PRELIMINARY INFORMATION
The User Program Mode is covered in detail in the op-
erating instructions for the keypad in use.
Keypad programming is an option designed primarily to
allow small systems to be programmed and tested by
an installer at the site without requiring the PCD-
Windows Quickloader download program and associat-
ed hardware. Any Commercial Fire installation requires
the subsequent use of the PCD-Windows Quickloader
to ensure the minimum valid programming options
have been selected and no invalid configuration selec-
tions have been erroneously entered.
It is recommended that once the system has been pro-
grammed, tested and placed in operation, that keypad
programming is not to be used and any changes to the
programming be made only using PCD-Windows
Quickloader.
Burg-Only Systems
To enable GEMC-BK1 Burglary keypad program-
ming in a Gemini C-Series "Burglary-only" system,
perform the following procedures on the mother-
board after the system is installed:
1. Move jumper "J1" from NORM to CONFIG.
2. Move jumper "BURG SERVICE" from OFF to
ON.
3. Place jumper "J4" on "BURG ONLY".
4. Move jumper "J1" from CONFIG to NORM.
5. Move jumper "BURG SERVICE" from ON to
OFF.
Keypad programming can only be performed on the
Keypad addressed as "01". On Fire and on Combina-
tion Fire / Burglary Systems, keypad 01 must be a
GEMC-FK1 keypad.
KEYPAD PROGRAMMING RULES
1. Keypad programming mode can only be entered
when the Function Menu item ENABLE PROGRAM-
MING is selected (System Trouble "Error Check
Required" displayed). When keypad program-
ming mode is entered, the control panel remain
functioning as intended (Fire Alarm, Supervisory
Alarms and troubles will be detected, annunciated
and signaled) to protect life and property.
2. After keypad programming, the system trouble
"Error Check Required" will remain until the
account has been uploaded into a PCD-Windows
Quickloader Gemini C-Series account, then sub-
sequent "Full Program Download without Er-
rors" completed to ensure the programming is
valid and without errors. Note: See Fire Glossa-
ry entry "Disable Panel Error Check Required
Mode" in WI1653.
3. System must be fully tested.
In addition:
Only Keypad #1 may be used for programming
(must be located in Area 1 for Fire systems).
The Program Mode cannot be accessed while
the communicator is transmitting except during
the first three minutes after power-up.
After entering codes or data, press the save U
button. Data will not be stored into memory un-
less this button is pressed.
If the keypad is in the Program Mode and no
activity is detected for longer than 4 minutes, a
steady tone will sound.
Press the C button to silence the sounder
and exit Program Mode.
NOTE: For ease of programming, it is recommend-
ed that a GEMC FK1 be used as Keypad #1. A new
GEMC-FK1 is automatically configured as Keypad #1.
See Keypad Configuration Mode.
