Introduction
Congratulations on your decision to protect your home or business with the OMNI-
848 security system. You have chosen a reliable, state-of-the-art security system
that is remarkably easy to operate. Your system has been professionally installed
by your local Security Company whose representative can explain the specifics of
your system.
The keypad is the input and display device for your security system. Your Security
Company representative will suggest the model most appropriate for your premises
and your needs. There are three types of keypads that can be used with this system:
LCD keypad (alpha display), Fixed-Glass keypad (2-digit display), LED keypad.
Since your system may use any of these keypads, the displays of all keypads are
described in this manual.
The OMNI-848 is listed by Underwriters Laboratories for Household Fire and
Burglary applications.
Throughout this manual, the following conventions are used to represent the
keystrokes required to perform the following functions.
STAY Press Button labeled STAY.
BYPASS Press Button labeled BYPASS.
INSTANT Press Button labeled INSTANT.
CODE Press Button labeled CODE.
Enter 4-digit or 6-digit user code (see User Code note on page 8).
Please keep your manual in a convenient location so you can refer to it if

Turning The System On
IS THE SYSTEM READY?
You can turn the burglar portion of your security system on and off. Before you
can turn the system on, it must be “ready.” If you have a protected door open, or
someone is moving in view of a motion detector, the system will not display
“READY.”
The system is ready if the READY light and the display shows:
LCD Keypad:
SYSTEM READY
PART 1
Fixed-Glass Keypad:
Ready LED lit LED Keypad: Ready LED lit
TO TURN THE SYSTEM ON AND LEAVE
Enter your user code.
The System On (ARM) light will go on and the display will show:
LCD Keypad:
ON: AWAY
PART 1
Fixed-Glass Keypad:
Arm LED lit LED Keypad: Arm LED lit
Exit through a door designated by your installer as an exit/entry door. You
must leave within the exit time programmed by your installer. Refer to the
reference sheet for the time that has been set for your system.
WHEN THE SYSTEM IS NOT READY
If the system is not ready to be armed, the READY light will be off and the
display will show which zone or zones are not ready. The following conditions
will be indicated by the zone lights (LED keypad) or described on the display:
Fast Blink .............................Alarm or tamper condition
Slow Blink/Low Intensity Bypass
Slow Pulse ............................Trouble, problem with RF receiver, or low battery
Solid On .................................Zone faulted
Example: If the READY light is not lit and the Zone 1 light is solid on, an
alarm sensor on Zone 1 is faulted. This might mean that a door is open or
someone is walking in view of a motion sensor. Check all sensors on Zone 1 and
resolve the problem. When all sensors are restored, the READY light will come
on and the zone light will go out. In this example, the display shows:
NOT READY
PART 1 and NOT RDY ZN 1
FRONT DOOR

Turning The System On
(cont)
Determine which zone or zones are not ready, resolve the problem, and turn the
system on normally. If the problem cannot be resolved, you may bypass the
zone that is not ready. Bypassing should only be done if the problem on the
zone cannot be resolved, OR if you intentionally wish to leave the zone off. For
example, you would leave the zone off if you plan to keep the window open for
ventilation. Zones that are bypassed are not protected when the system
is on. See Bypass on the following page for a description of the procedure.
TO TURN THE SYSTEM ON AND STAY INSIDE
To turn the perimeter portion of your burglar alarm on and move around freely
inside the premises, use the STAY mode.
Check to make sure the system is ready. When it is ready, press:
STAY followed by your user code.
When the system has been turned on successfully, the On/Off (ARM) light and
the following will display:
LCD Keypad:
ON: STAY
PART 1
Fixed-Glass Keypad:
STAY LED Keypad: Arm and Stay LEDs lit
REMEMBER: You must turn the system off if you want to open the door or
leave the premises after the exit time has passed.
TO TURN THE SYSTEM ON IN INSTANT MODE AND STAY INSIDE
In INSTANT STAY mode, the perimeter portion of your burglar alarm system
is on but the time delays are eliminated from your normal entry/exit door(s). All
interior protection is off, so you are free to move around inside.
Check to make sure the system is READY. When it is ready, press:
INSTANT followed by
STAY followed by your user code.
When the system has been turned on successfully, the On/Off (ARM) light, the
INSTANT light, and the STAY light will all be on, and the following will display:
LCD Keypad:
ON: STAY / INS
PART 1
Fixed-Glass Keypad:
STAY
INSTANT
LED Keypad:
Armed, Stay, and Instant
LEDs lit
NOTE: This system can be programmed by the installer for the AUTOSTAY
feature which automatically bypasses interior zones if you arm the system and
do not exit through a delay zone during exit time.
