Introduction

Introduction

Congratulations on your decision to protect your home or business
with the OMNI-408 security system. You have chosen a reliable,
state-of-the-ar t secu rity system that i s rema rkably easy to operate.
Representatives from your local security company, who can explain
the specifics of your system, have professionally installed your system.

The keypad is the input and display device for your security system.
Your system can use either the OMNI-KP, OMNI-LCD or OMNI-LED
keypads. The OMNI-KP keypad displays the system status with fixed
words, the OMNI-LCD keypad displays two lines of text, and the
OMNI-LED keypad displays the current zone status, including
alarms, bypasses, and f a ults, using LEDs. Each condition causes the
LEDs to operate differently.

Throughout this guide, the following conventions are used to display
the keystrokes required to perform functions.

Paging Feature

Your installer may have programmed your system to send messages
with certain system conditions to your pager. An explanation of those
messages is provided below.

Follow-Me Displays

The display shown on your pager is "ACCTEXXX" where:
"ACCT" is the 4-digit central station no. 2 account number.
"E" is the event code. There are 4 event types: alarms, troubles,

openings, and closings. These event codes are as follows:
Openings = 0, Closings = 1, Alarm or Trouble = 9

If multiple events occur, the signal for the highest-priority event is sent
first. Events ranked from highest to lowest priority are alarms, trouble,
openings, and closings.

"XXX" is, depending on the event, the zone (001-008) or user (001-014)
designation.

System Turn On (Maid Code)

If you choose to have a code that cannot turn the system off, but can
turn the system on, have your installer program this feature. If
programmed, User Code No. 5 has system-on capability only, and you
can issue this code to a temporary user so they can secure the
premises when they leave.

Send Help Conditions

Your system can be programmed for three separate Send Help Alerts
that send an emergency signal to your central station. These three
alerts, along with their keypad combinations, are shown below:

Quick Forced On

If programmed by your installer, Quick Forced On allows you to turn
the burglar portion of your alarm system on to the Away mode,
bypassing all zones that are not ready. To enable Quick Force On:

Press [#], [2].

A valid User Code is still required to turn the system off.

The Quick Forced On feature is disabled on UL installations.

Quick Exit Yes No

If enabled, this feature allows the user to exit without having to
disarm, then arm the system. It is activated by pressing the [STAY]
key while the system is armed and not in entry delay. This starts the
exit time, causes the keypad to beep once, and allows the user to exit
without disarming the system. The system returns to its last armed
state after the exit time has expired.

Quick Bypass Yes No

Yes No

If you have Quick Bypass programmed for your system, you do not
have to use your User Code to bypass zones. The Quick Bypass

Testing the System

System Test

We recommend that you test your system once a week using the
following procedure:

If your system is monitored, contact your central station before you
perform this test.

1. Turn your security system on.

2. Wait until your exit time is over and then activate the system by

opening a protected zone (for example, a window or door).

3. Confirm that the alarm sounding device (bell or siren) sounds. If

your system is connected to a central station, the keypad sounds
the ringback tone to confirm that the signal was received.

4. Turn the security system off.

5. Call the central station to tell them you are finished testing.

Battery Test

We recommend that you test your battery once a month. To test your
backup/standby battery, follow this procedure.

1. Remove main power from the system.

2. Observe that the AC indicator light on the keypad goes off.

3. Activate your alarm by performing the above SYSTEM TEST.

Remember to contact your central station if your system is
monitored.

4. Restore main power to the security sys tem .
If you have any further questions about the operation of your system,

please contact your alarm company.

Smoke Detectors for Minimum Protection
Smoke Detectors for Additional Protection
Heat-Activated Detectors

With regard to the number and placement of smoke/heat detectors, we
subscribe to the recommendations contained in the National Fire
Protection Association’s (NFPA) Standard #72 noted below.

Early warning fire detection is best achieved by the installation of fire
detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the household as
follow s: A smoke detec tor installe d outside of each separat e sleeping
area, in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional
story of the family living unit, including basements and excluding
crawl spaces and unfinished attics.

In addition, the NFPA recommends that you install heat or smoke
detectors in the living room, dining room, bedroom(s), kitchen,
hallway(s), attic, furnace room, utility and storage rooms, basements,
and attached garages.

– 22 –

Emergency Evacuation

Establish and regularly practice a plan of escape in the event of fire.
The following steps are recommended by the National Fire Protection
Association:

1. Position your detector or your interior and/or exterior sounders so

that they can be heard by all occupants.

2. Determine two means of escape from each room. One path of

escape should lead to the door that permits normal exit from the
building. The other is an alternative route, such as through a
window, should your normal escape path be unpassable. Station
an escape ladder at such windows if there is a long drop to the
ground.

3. Sketch a floor plan of the building. Show windows, doors, stairs,

and rooftops that can be used to escape. Indicate escape routes for
each room. Keep these routes free from obstruction and post
copies of the escape routes in every room.

4. Assure that all bedroom doors are shut while you are asleep. This

will prevent deadly smoke from entering while you escape.

5. Try the door. If the door is hot, check your alternate escape route.

If the door is cool, open it cautiously. Be prepared to slam the door
shut if smoke or heat rushes in.

6. When smoke is present, crawl on the ground. Do not walk upright,

since smoke rises and may overcome you. Clearer air is near the
floor.

7. Escape quickly; don’t panic.

8. Establish a common meeting place outdoors, away from your

house, where everyone can meet and then take steps to contact the
authorities and account for those missing. Choose someone to
assure that nobody returns to the house — many die going back.

System Limitations

While this system is an advanced-design security system, it does not
offer guaranteed protection against burglary, fire, or other emergency.
Any alarm system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to
compromise or failure to warn for a variety of reasons. For example:

Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have

•

the technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor or
disconnect an alarm warning device.

Intrusion detec to rs (e.g., passive infrared detectors) , smoke

•

detectors, and many other sensing devices will not work without
batteries or if the batteries are not put in properly. Devices
powered solely by a main power supply will not work if their main
power supply is cut off for any reason, however briefly.

Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected

•

by metal before they reach the alarm receiver. Even if the signal
path has been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can
occur if a metal object is moved into the path.

A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button

•

quickly enough.

– 26 –

While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing

•

residential fire deaths, they may not activate or provide early
warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35 percent of all
fires. Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction
with the system may not work are as follows: Smoke detectors
may not sense fires that start where smoke cannot reach the
detectors, such as in chimneys, in walls, on roofs, or on the other
side of cl osed doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on
another level of a residence or building. A second-floor detector,
for example, may not sense a first-floor or basement fire.
Moreover, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No smoke
detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In general,
detectors may not always warn about fires caused by carelessness
and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions,
escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded

System Limitations (cont’d)

electrical circuits, children playing with matches, or arson.
Depending on the nature of the fire and/or the location of the
smoke detectors, the detector, even if it operates as anticipated,
may not provi de sufficient warning to allow a ll occupants to escape
in time to prevent injury or death.

A passive infrared motion detector can detect intrusion only within

•

the designed ranges as diagrammed in its installation manual.
Passive infrared detectors do not provide volumetric area
protection. They do create multiple beams of protection, and
intrusion can be detected only in unobstructed areas covered by
the beams. They cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes
place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed door s , glass partition s,
glass doors, or windows. Mechanical tampering, masking,
painting, or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows, or
any part of the optical system can reduce their detection ability.
Passive infrared detectors sense changes in temperature; however,
as the am bient temp erature of the protect ed area approaches the
temperature range of 90º to 104º Fahrenheit (32º to 40º Celsius),
the detection performance can decrease.

Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells, or horns may not alert

•

people or wake up sleepers who are located on the other side of
closed or partly open doors. If warning devices sound on a
different level of the residence from the bedrooms, then they are
less likely to waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even
persons who are awake may not hear the warning if the alarm is
muffled by noise from a stereo, radio, air conditioner, other
appliances, or by passing traffic. Finally, alarm warning devices,
however loud, may not warn hearing-impaired people or waken
deep sleepers.

Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises

•

to a central monitoring station may be out of service. Telephone
lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated intruders.

– 27 –

System Limitations (cont’d)

However, even if the system responds to the emergency as

•

intended, occupants may have insufficient time to protect
themselves from the emergency situation. In the case of a
monitored alarm system, authorities may not respond
appropriately.

This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to

•

component failure. Even though this equipment is designed to last
as long as 20 years, the electronic components could fail at any
time.

The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an
intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance. This alarm
system should be teste d weekly to make sure all sensor s a re wor kin g
properly.

Installing an alarm system may make one eligible for lower insurance
rates, but an alarm system is not a substitute for insurance.
Homeowners, property owners, and renters should continue to act
prudently in protecting themselves and continue to insure their lives
and property.

– 28 –

We continue to develop new and improved protection devices. Users of
alarm systems owe it to themselves and their loved ones to learn
about these developments.
