The GEM-DXK3 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-DXK3 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). Note: The "K Series" GEM-
DXK3 keypad is compatible with the
GEM-P816/1632/3200/9600 series con-
trol panels. However, some exclusive "K
Series" keypad features can only be used
with the GEM-P1632 v.10 control panel.
