Feature Summary of Version 1
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The following system feature are supplied in Version 1:
Exit Bypass – This feature allows any delay zone or interior that is violated at the end of exit
time to be bypassed for that armed period if the bit is set. This feature, if enabled, takes
precedence over exit error (question 26, location 4, bit 3).
Pager/Follow-Me – This feature allows the end user to access a user-programmable phone
number that can serve as a pager number or forwarding (site) number where the user can receive
digital messages from the OMNI-408A that are a result of programmable events occurring on the
system.
Bell Test from RF Keyfobs – This feature, if enabled, will activate bell test on arming/disarming
only from keyfobs. Arming/disarming from the keypad via user codes or quick function will not trip
the bell test (question 05, location 4, bit 2).
RF Board Detect – The panel senses if the ZR401 RF board is attached to the control panel. This
option is only viewable through the downloader.
Bell Test on Arming – If the "bell test chirp" is selected (question 08, location 1, bit 3) Bell Test
on Arm provides a single Bell chirp when arming and a double chip on disarming.
Strobe Trigger – Allows the trigger output to Pulse with the same timing as the Bell Test option
(chirp or non-chirp).
Limited Access to Programming – Prevents the installer from accessing questions 01 through
03 and 09 and 10 in keypad programming. This feature is set in the downloader only.
RF Programming Using Bypass Key – This feature, if enabled, allows access to RF
programming by pressing the [Bypass] key and the 2-digit RF question number. Otherwise the
method is to press [*] [#] and the 2-digit RF question number.
Recent Panic – If enabled in question 37, location 4, when the Panic is pressed on a keyfob
followed by an arm or disarm function within a 1-minute window, the panel sends a recent panic
code to the central station.
Exit Programming Central Station Report – This feature, if enabled, sends a code to the
central station when exiting keypad programming.

Wiring the OMNI-408A
Refer to the Summary of Connections diagram in Appendix F at the back of this guide for
visual information concerning the wiring and hookup of the OMNI-408A. The connections
shown meet Household Fire / Burglar Alarm System standards set by UL (UL985 and
UL1023).
System Stabilization Mode
Upon initial power-up of the system, all of the lights on the LED keypad(s) will go ON and
then go OFF for approximately 2 minutes, 10 seconds if the system was last armed. This
system stabilization mode occurs on a total power-up, on a system reset, or after completion
of system programming. If the total system power is lost, then upon power restoral the
system will return to the previous arming state. The 2-minute, 10-second interval is used to
allow motion detectors (in interior zones) to stabilize on power-up in order to prevent false
alarms. PUTTING A MOMENTARY JUMPER BETWEEN TERMINAL 15 AND 16 ON
POWER-UP CAN DISABLE THIS OPTION. IF DISABLED, THE POWER-UP RESET TIME
IS APPROXIMATELY 5 SECONDS. This is a normal condition.

Terminal Connections
TERMINALS FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
1 & 2 Transformer Connect the 16.5VAC 25VA transformer, utilizing #18awg
wire at a distance not to exceed 15 feet from the panel, to an
unswitched 120VAC outlet.
Do not use any other transformer, as this may result in
improper operation or damage to the unit.
The AC/LB keypad LED will remain on while AC power is
present. If an AC loss occurs, the AC/LB LED turns off
immediately. If AC power remains off for 15 minutes, the
system pulses the keypad buzzer (if enabled in Programming
question 07, location 4, bit 2) and transmits a power-loss
message to the central station, if programmed to do so. THE
KEYPAD BUZZER CAN BE SILENCED by entry of any valid
user code. When AC restores, the AC/LB LED lights
immediately, and a Restore code is reported, if programmed.
3Earth
Ground Connect this grounding lug to a cold-water pipe utilizing #18awg wire at a distance of no greater than 15 ft. Use a
non-corrosive metal strap firmly secured to the pipe to which
the lead is electrically connected and secured. If the
premises' pipes terminate in PVC, this terminal must be
connected to a 6-foot grounding rod.
4(+) & 5(-) Bell Output The total output power available for sounding devices is 1A at
11.5 - 13.1VDC. These terminals deliver CONSTANT output
on BURGLARY, AUDIBLE PANIC, and BELL TEST. On a
FIRE condition, a PULSED or TEMPORAL output can be
generated. There are separate bell cutoff times
programmable for burglary and fire conditions within the
programming sequence. For UL Household Fire Warning
System installations, the speaker must be mounted indoors
for best audibility. Also, for UL installations, use only one
speaker.
NOTE: Before connecting sounding devices, consult their
specifications for proper current draw. Otherwise, the bell
fuse (F1) may be blown.
6Siren
Supervision
Input
The bell output may be supervised when a conventional bell
or a self-contained siren is connected. When connecting a
conventional bell or a self-contained siren to the bell output
terminals (4 and 5), the jumper JP3 must be placed across
pins 1 and 2. When connecting an external siren driver to the
bell output terminals, the supervision wire is connected to the
siren supervision terminal of the siren driver, and the jumper
JP3 must be placed across pins 3 and 4. A supervisory
condition generates a pulsing keypad sounder. Also, the
supervisory LED on the keypad pulses. Entering a valid user
code while the system is disarmed silences the sounder. The
LED continues to pulse until the supervision is fixed. If a bell,
self-contained siren, or external siren driver is not connected
to the bell output terminals, a 100-ohm resistor must be
placed across the siren supervision input to prevent a bell
supervision error. Bell supervision is reported to the CS if
enabled.

Output
Smoke Detector Power: This system accepts 9.5 - 12VDC 4-
wire smoke detectors only. Approximately 50mA of current
are available at these terminals for powering all detectors and
an EOL relay FBII Model 620. For UL installations, see wiring
diagram for hookup.
These terminals adhere to the fire verification and reset logic.
You can reset the smoke detector power manually by
entering a valid user code after clearing alarm memory or by
using the asterisk [*] key.
Trigger 1 Output: These terminals which are commonly wired
to trigger 1, can be used for a trigger output. See
programming question 28, locations 1 and 2 for valid trigger
types.
5(-) & 8(+) Regulated
Power (11.5
- 13.1VDC):
The total regulated output power for motion detectors and
other external devices is 500mA at 11.8 - 12.5V for
residential applications, or 12.0 - 12.5V for commercial
applications, with less than 100 mVPP ripple. The total
regulated output capacity of the OMNI-408A includes the
power available from these terminals (8 and 5) as well as the
power used by the keypads and smoke detectors. Therefore,
to determine the total power available from these terminals,
subtract the power consumed by the keypads and smoke
detectors.

Line Connect the model 368 cord as follows: 19 (Brown) = Home Tip, 20 (Gray) = Home Ring, 21 (Green) = Telco Tip, and 22
(Red) = Telco Ring. Insert the plug into an USOCRJ31X Jack
(or a CA31A Jack for Canadian installations).
The FCC registration number is AE398E-69554 AL-E, and
the ringer equivalence is 0.0B. The system should not be
connected to party lines or coin-operated phones.
If this control panel will be used for uploading, downloading
or remote-command applications, the telephone line
connected to the control panel
must not
be shared with a fax
machine or modem. Furthermore, this device should not be
connected to a phone line that has Call Waiting, unless the
Call Waiting Interrupt numbers are programmed into the
panel dialing sequence.
BACKUP BATTERY:
The Red (+) and Black (-) flying leads must be connected to a 12VDC 4-7AH gell cell, to serve
as backup power in the event of AC loss.
A battery test occurs approximately every 4.5 minutes. Low-battery condition occurs at
nominal 11VDC. The keypad AC/LB LED and buzzer will pulse slowly when a low-battery
condition is detected. The system reports this condition to the central station if programmed
to do so. Battery restoral occurs within 4.5 minutes, at the NEXT battery test. The buzzer
may be silenced by entry of any valid user code.
POOL ZONE CONNECTIONS:
Zone 4 can be used for the Pool Zone option. To use Zone 4 for the Pool Zone option, all doors
with direct access to the pool shall be equipped with an alarm that produces an audible
warning when the door and its screen are opened. The alarm will sound continuously for a
minimum of 30 seconds immediately after the door is opened, and must be capable of being
heard throughout the house during normal household activities. The alarm automatically
resets under all operating conditions. The momentary switches provide temporary alarm
deactivation (15 seconds) so that the door can be opened without the alarm sounding.
When the Pool Zone option has been selected, Zone 4 operates as a standard delay zone when
the system is armed and the momentary switches start the entry time.
Figure 1 shows the wiring connections needed to use Zone 4 as a Pool Zone.

the hole and mounting plate, using HOLES “A” and/or “B” in conjunction with appropriate
mounting hardware (not provided) for the type of surface.
1. Complete the keypad wiring as required for the control with which the keypad is to be
used.
2. Replace the keypad cover assembly on the rear plate. Starting at the upper edge of the
plate, engage the plate's two HOLDING HOOKS (see Figure 4) into the recesses provided
for them inside the upper edge of the cover assembly. Snap the lower edge of the cover
assembly and the lower edge of the cover onto the two SNAP HOOKS at the lower edge of
the plate.
NOTE: If desired, cover and plate can be further secured together by inserting a screw
(provided) into the SLOT at the keypad's lower edge.
NOTE: When surface mounting the keypad and using screws with heads larger than the
screws provided with the unit, place electrical tape over the screws to prevent them from
interfering with the keypad operation.

1 Zone Status
LEDS These LEDs display the current zone status, including alarms,
bypasses, troubles, and faults. Each condition will cause these LEDs to
operate differently, as follows:
Alarms — Fast Blink (approx. 150mS on - 150mS off).
Troubles — Slow Pulse (approx. 600mS on - 600mS off).
Bypasses — Wink (100mS on - 900mS off). Zone bypasses are
displayed as a very slow wink of the zone LED light.
Faulted Zones — Solid on. Faulted zones are the lowest-priority
indication. Faulted burglary zones are displayed with the LED solidly on
while the system is disarmed.
Normal — Off.

2ARM/DISARM
LED This LED indicates whether the system is currently armed (on) or disarmed (off). This LED will also blink fast to show that alarms have
occurred; or blink slowly upon failure to communicate with the central
station.
3 Stay LED This LED displays whether the system has been armed in the Stay
mode or the Stay/Instant mode. If the Instant LED is on and the Stay
LED is on, then the system is in the Stay/Instant mode. If the Instant
LED is off and the Stay LED is on, then the system is in the Stay mode
only. Stay/Instant is enabled in programming question 08, location 3. In
either mode, the Stay LED indicates the following:
On — All zones enabled for Stay are bypassed.
Off — Zones are active-armed.
4 Instant LED This LED displays whether the system has been armed in the
Stay/Instant mode, Instant mode, or indicates if the account is not being
monitored by the CS. Stay/Instant means that the system is currently
armed, all delay zones are Instant and all interior zones are bypassed.
Instant means that the system is currently armed, all delay zones are
Instant and no zones are bypassed.
NOTE: See programming question 08, location 3.
On — Delay zones are currently instant.
Off — Delay zones are normal.
Pulse — Central station is not monitoring the account.
5 AC/LB LED This indicator light displays the current power status of the panel as
follows:
On — AC is present.
Off — No AC, running on battery backup.
Slow Blink — Low-battery condition detected.
6 READY LED This LED displays whether the system is ready for arming. The READY
LED is common to all burglary zones with the following indications:
On — System ready to be armed.
Off — System not ready to be armed.
Slow Blink — Indicates Installer Programming mode.
Fast Blink — Alarm Memory mode.
7 [Stay] Key The [Stay] key enables arming the system, excluding zones
programmed with the Stay option. This provides exterior protection of
the location while allowing full access throughout the interior. The [Stay]
key is also used to exit Installer Programming mode.
8 [Bypass] Key The [Bypass] key is used to temporarily exclude protection of a specific
zone.
9 [Instant] Key The [Instant] key enables arming the system, eliminating the entry
delays. If enabled with the [Stay] key, it enables arming the system in
the Stay/Instant mode.
NOTE: Instant modes are enabled in question 08, location 3.
10 [Code] Key The [Code] key is used to enter the Installer Programming mode and for
entry of user codes.
