4 Central Station OmniaMOD-V2
INTRODUCTION
ATTENTION This manual describes the use of the OmniaMOD-V2 in se-
curity systems, however, it is possible to use it for the remote control, via
telephone, of all types of systems that can transmit data with the ADEMCO
protocol (for example, the Bentel MD-COM digital communicator).
The OmniaMOD-V2 Central Station is a main control unit which receives
information, via telephone, from remote security-systems. OmniaMod-V2
consists of:
Ø MS-DOS personal computer (not supplied);
Ø from 1 to 4 OmniaMOD-V2 modems (one modem supplied);
Ø Central Station and Import Data programs;
Ø up to two printers (not supplied).
The Central Station permits:
r reception of coded events from remote security systems;
r identification of the type of event and location, by means of the client data-
base stored in the computer;
r graphic presentation - map of the city;
r graphic presentation of the event on the map, shown by the flashing of the
icon assigned to the client;
r full archiving on the hard disk, of all events and operator actions;
r sequential printing of all events;
r event analysis according to selected filters;
r archive printout according to selected filters;
r multilayer password access;
r event reception even when the operator is not logged in;
r the possibility to control up to 4 telephone lines (with 4 OmniaMOD-V2 mo-
dems and a PC with 4 serial ports);
r event reception from different types of control panels (Bentel, DSC, etc.);
r online help.
INTRODUCTION 5
General description
The OmniaMOD-V2 central station receives events from remote security systems. A remote security system consists of a control panel with built-in digital
communicator. Data from the control panel is sent via telephone to the OmniaMOD-V2 modem, which then sends it to the computer. Event data that is
received by the modem is interpreted by the Central Station software, according to the client data:
Ø client address;
Ø telephone number;
Ø system pictures and ground plans;
Ø sensor position on the premises;
Ø diagram of arm/disarm times of the remote security system.
Each event which occurs in the remote system causes the communicator
to send coded data to the OmniaMOD-V2. When the event is acknowledged, it is displayed on the monitor (and also printed on the printer) according to its priority. Events are classified in three groups:
Ø alarms (an event is acknowledged by an acoustic signal and flashing of
the message in the active window);
Computer
Ø warnings (also generate the acoustic signal and message in the active
window);
Ø messages give the rest of the information which tells the operator of the
status of the remote systems, and of the Central Station itself (arm/disarm,
test communications, operator change-over, ...).
When an alarm or warning occurs, the operator, according to instructions, scans
the system information and pictures, then takes the necessary actions to eliminate the cause of the event (calls the fire brigade, sends a security team to the
system location, sends maintenance service to the system location).

General description
The OmniaMOD-V2 is designed for telecontrol (the control of security systems via telephone). In fact, as well as recognizing the ADEMCO protocol,
it houses a 12 V 1.2 Ah max. battery (not supplied), that guarantees functioning during blackout. The OmniaMOD-V2 event memory (up to 256
events) avoids data loss during communication problems with the control
program (for example, when the program is not running or is busy communicating with another modem or when the PC is not operating, due to
blackout).
When the modem is receiving an incoming call from a security system, it
+
cannot answer calls coming from other systems, due to the engaged status
of the telephone line. Therefore, avoid making several calls at the same
time (it is advisable to program different times for security system test
calls) or program a higher number of call attempts or send calls to several
telephone numbers.
In order to have these possibilities the Central Station must have several
telephone lines, each of which connected to an OmniaMOD-V2 modem.
Each modem must be connected to a serial port of the PC. This is possible
with the Central Station program, which can manage up to 4 modems.
