Napco Gemini P9600 - User code/area problem....

[[email protected]]

I'm setting up my second Napco Gemini P9600 system and running into a
very strange problem with the user codes: no matter what I do, when I
try to arm the system it tells me "CODE DENIED. INCORRECT AREA".

The problem is.. I only have 1 Area and I've checked 200 times that
the user codes, zones, and keypads are all in Area 1. I've tried
wiping the system and starting from scratch, tried blanking all the
user codes via Quickloader and rebuilding them. Nothing helps.. I've
verified the area configurations via direct address programming just
to be sure on the keypad. It's all looks fine.

I never had this problem with my other P9600 system from a few years
back... They just worked.. Could it be a bad firmware? I've got V60A
in this new panel. Everything else works fine..

Thanks for any insight,
Rob D.

If you say so.

You news server must strip off binaries
in non-binary groups cuz I got it.

Mine won't display the post but it will
send it. Go figure.

I spoke with the gentleman. There may be
a problem with the panel. We'll check with
Napco on Monday. Everything (zones,
users, keypads) was already assigned to
Area 1.

The other possibility is something in the
DL. He used an older release of Napco
Quickloader and the board is current. I
don't think that's an issue it but I can't rule
it out until we check.

the problem.

here are two people (RLB and Just Looking)
Leuck erroneously assumes we don't know. He
misses the point, however, which I do know --
that Napco panels are way easier to program
using the software than by keypad and that the
software helps the DIYer avoid many mistakes.

Leuck assumes that I don't know if the gentleman
is able to use the software. He's wrong, of course.
The gentleman has used Napco software before
when he successfully installed, programmed and
tested his previous Napco Gemini P9600 security
system.

There's good reason why I know this. I happen to
know the gentleman. Leuck does not. I don't
know who is behind the "Just Looking" alias but
he gave useful advice (which Leuck did not).

The fact is that most panels are better off being
programmed using software than by keypad. This
is especially true of advanced panels like the big
Napco Gemini P9600 with thousands of variables
to set.
