DIRECT ADDRESS PROGRAM MODE

DIRECT ADDRESS OVERVIEW

Direct Address Programming allows you to go directly to the address locations (up to 4095) and change the data entries
manually in order to customize your control panel options. Whereas the Easy Menu Program Mode guides you through
limited selections to get you started, Direct Address Program Mode allows you to change all options directly. It con-
sists of up to 4095 address locations each with data entry locations as shown in the following diagram (below left). The
data entry location accepts data in one of three formats: Binary, Decimal and Hexadecimal (explained below in
"Address Mode Displays"). The following diagram (below right) illustrates a Decimal format data entry location (using
a GEM-RP1CAe2/GEM-K1CA keypad).

ADDRESS MODE DISPLAYS

There are three types of address displays when programming in Direct Entry Program Mode, as follows:
A) Binary (Bit) Format
Settings (such as Zone Features) display and accept data in "number" format. For example, Zone Features are
turned on by the pressing of keypad buttons 1 through 8, with the activated Zone(s) displaying the corresponding
decimal digit (replacing deactivated zones which are signified by dashes).
EXAMPLE: BIT Format with the GEM-RP1CAe2/GEM-K1CA: Program Zones 2, 4, 5 and 7 as Exit/Entry Fol-
lower Zones.
