Introduction
Congratulations on your decision to protect your home or business with the
OMNI®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-Word keypad (2-digit display), or LED keypad.
Since your system may use any of these keypads, the displays of all keypads are
described in this manual.
The OMNI-624 and OMNI-848 are 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.
Please keep your manual in a convenient location so you can refer to it if
needed.

Arming the System
IS THE SYSTEM READY?
You can arm and disarm the burglar portion of your security system. Before
you can arm the system, 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
the “READY” message.
The system is ready if the READY light is lit and the display shows:
LCD Keypad:
SYSTEM READY
PART 1
Fixed-Word Keypad:
READY LED lit
LED Keypad:
READY LED lit
NOTE: If programmed by your installer, you may arm the system if a delay or
interior zone is faulted. However, faulted zones must be restored before your
exit time expires or an alarm or zone bypass will result. Ask your installer if
your system has this feature and, if so, if it causes an alarm or zone bypass.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM AND LEAVE
Enter your user code.
The System ARMED light will go on and the display will show:
LCD Keypad:
ON: AWAY 120s
PART 1
Fixed-Word Keypad:
ARM LED lit
120
LED Keypad:
ARM LED lit
NOTE: The number 120 shown above for the LCD and Fixed-Word keypads
indicates a counter that is updated every second and displays the amount of
time remaining to exit without sounding an alarm.
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.
This system can be programmed by the installer for the AUTOSTAY feature,
which automatically bypasses interior zones programmed for AUTOSTAY if
you arm the system and do not exit through a delay zone during exit time.

Arming the System (cont)
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
Determine which zone or zones are not ready, resolve the problem, and arm the
system 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 disarmed. For example,
you would leave the zone disarmed if you plan to keep the window open for
ventilation. Zones that are bypassed are not protected when the system is
armed. See TO BYPASS A ZONE on page 12 for a description of the procedure.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM AND STAY INSIDE
To arm the perimeter portion of your burglar alarm 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 armed successfully, the ARMED (STAY) light is lit and
the following is displayed:
LCD Keypad:
ON: STAY
PART 1
Fixed-Word Keypad:
STAY
LED Keypad:
ARM and STAY LEDs lit
REMEMBER: You must disarm the system or press [STAY] to initiate the “quick
exit” if you want to open the door or leave the premises after the exit time has
expired. Quick Exit restarts the exit time without disarming the system.
