Congratulations on the purchase of your new Excalibur Gold security system and on
joining over 8 million people worldwide who have trusted their vehicle's security to the
designers of Omega Research & Development, Inc. Your Excalibur Gold system combines
state-of-the-art security technology with practical, user-friendly convenience features. You
will have increased peace of mind knowing that your vehicle, and its contents, are protected.
The added convenience features will also enhance the enjoyment and satisfaction of the dayto-day use of your vehicle. To learn how to operate your security system, please become
familiar with the following three principal user components: the Remote Transmitter, the Red
LED Status Indicator and the Valet Switch.
The Remote Transmitter: Each security system comes with two pre-learned transmitters,
but can learn up to 4 different transmitters. The transmitter has three buttons: one large button
at the top, near the LED* and two smaller buttons below. This system is pre-programmed,
through a built-in learning routine, to have the transmitter buttons work in the following
configuration:
The large upper button is used to arm, disarm and panic the security system.
The small center button may be used to operate the trunk release feature; or, in
conjunction with the large button, for silent arming or disarming of the system.
The small lower button is used, in conjunction with the large button, to operate remote
sensor bypass, and remote valet. Used alone it operates the 3rd Channel Output.
The remote transmitter's operation is explained in more detail on Pages 8-10.
* LED is the abbreviation for Light Emitting Diode, which is used as a visual indicator.

The Valet Switch: This switch is used to place the system into Valet Mode, which prevents
manual arming and any automatic system functions which may have been programmed to
operate. The Valet Switch is also used, in conjunction with the ignition key, to perform an
Override function, which will allow disarming the security system in the event the transmitter
becomes inoperable. Please note that if extra secure operation of the Valet Switch is desired,
you may custom program its override operation by utilizing the Personal Coded Override,
which is explained on Page 19. And finally, the Valet Switch is also used as part of the
Programmable Features and Transmitter Programming procedures.
The Red LED Status Indicator: Informs you of several possible conditions the security
system can be in; and also serves as a visual deterrent to break-ins and theft. The LED Status
Indicator is also used as the visual indicator for the Automatic Transmitter Verification
Feature.
The Valet Switch and the Red LED Status Indicator are supplied with a consolidated
mounting enclosure, which places them together for ease of operation, or, if desired, they may
be located separately and mounted by alternative methods. Please spend time reviewing this
guide to become familiar with your Excalibur Gold vehicle security system. We trust you will
find that your new Excalibur Gold vehicle security system performs to your highest expectations,
and will give you years of trouble-free convenience and protection.
Please note that your new Excalibur Gold vehicle security system has 25 user and installer
Programmable Features, described in detail in a later section, which allows customizing the
system's operations, some to suit your personal needs, and others which adapt the system
to a particular vehicle's installation parameters.

Excalibur Gold Advanced System Features
Automatic Transmitter Verification
protected against a weakness which is shared by all other remote security systems, even
factory-equipped Remote Keyless Entry systems: a thief's ability to code his own, unauthorized
transmitter to operate your system for the purpose of stealing your vehicle or it's contents.
IMPORTANT NOTE: For the first 48 hours after your new system
is installed, every time the ignition switch is turned "on", the siren
will chirp rapidly (or the horn will honk rapidly) for two seconds, and
the LED Status Light will flash for 90 seconds. This will also occur
the event of a new transmitter code being entered into the system.
Also, in normal operation, every time the ignition switch is turned "on", the LED Status
Indicator will flash and pause for ten seconds, the number of flashes between each pause being
equal to, and confirming, the number of transmitters encoded to operate your system. For
example: two flashes and a pause indicate that only two transmitters are coded to operate your
system. In the event the system alerts you to a recent transmitter addition, or if the LED Status
Indicator flashes a total different from the number of transmitters you have programmed to
operate your system, you can now immediately reprogram your transmitters, effectively
erasing any unauthorized transmitters.

The Patented Automatic Transmitter VerificationTM feature is the industry's first response
addressing the growing problem of a professional thief defeating a vehicle security system
by coding his own transmitter to operate the system. Previously, garage door openers were
commonly duplicated by burglars to gain home entry. Now when you leave your vehicle and
keys with any individual for any reason, you will have the peace of mind of knowing that only
your transmitters will operate the security system and that no other person has coded extra
transmitters to steal your vehicle.
Transmitter Code JumpingTM: When the remote control transmitter is operated, a switch
upon it is pressed so that it may transmit an encoded Radio Frequency (RF) signal. The word
"frequency" denotes the wavelength of the signal, and the encoding is a digital message within
the signal which ensures the correct command is followed by the proper receiving system. A
common analogy used to illustrate this is a common pocket radio - the frequency denotes where
to turn the radio's dial to hear a particular program, and the encoding is the language and words
which, if correct, are understood by the listener.
Each time you transmit a code to the security system, the transmitter and security system
will advance to another code to use for the transmission. The Code JumpingTM Transmitter
prevents a thief from using a "code grabber" device to record and play back a transmission
for the purpose of disarming your vehicle security system. Please note that pressing the
transmitter's arm / disarm button many times while it is out of range of the security system can
advance its codes beyond the range of recognition. If this occurs, simply press the arm / disarm
button a few times within range of the system to resynchronize the Code Jumping
between the transmitter and the security system control module.

Please note that certain conditions will affect the previously described system operations
- if the ignition switch is "on", the security system cannot be armed, but pressing and holding
the transmitter's Large Upper Button for 3 seconds will engage the Panic Feature. The Trunk
Release output will not operate with the ignition "on", unless a door is open. The 3rd Channel
output may be operated regardless of the ignition switch's status. Also, while in Valet Mode,
the system cannot become armed, but will still operate the vehicle's doorlocks, parking and
dome lights, trunk release, and any function operated by the 3rd Channel Output.
Multiple Car Operation - Changing Transmitter Banks: The transmitter button operations
explained on the previous pages are applicable for up to four different Excalibur Gold vehicle
security systems (i.e. - all three transmitter buttons will operate properly on one system without
affecting other systems operable by the same transmitter). This is accomplished by "changing
banks" on the transmitter:
1 )Rapidly press the transmitter's Small Center Button 4 times, holding it depressed on
the fourth press. The first three presses must be released before the transmitter's
LED lights.
2 )The transmitter LED will now be flashing 1 to 4 times between pauses. The number
of flashes indicates the current bank level (1 flash = Bank One; 2 flashes between
pauses = Bank T wo; etc.). Continue to hold the Small Center Button depressed.
3)To change banks, press and release the Large Button the number of times equal to the
desired Bank level number.
Page - 10
4 )The LED will change to flashing the new Bank level number between pauses.
5 )Release the Small Center Button. The transmitter will now operate in the new Bank.
When attempting to enter Bank Selection Mode, please note that the transmitter alternates entering Bank Selection Mode and transmitting a signal. When attempting to enter
Bank Selection Mode, if the transmitter's LED rapidly flashes, it is transmitting; simply repeat
the steps listed above to enter Bank Selection Mode.
Arming The System Using The Transmitter
To "arm" your security system is to place it into a state whereby it will respond to any
detected intrusion attempt. The security system can always be armed from the transmitter
provided the ignition switch is “off”, and the system is disarmed and not in the Valet Mode.
To arm the system, after you exit the vehicle and close all of the doors, simply press and release
the large transmitter button once, Instantly the exterior and interior lights will flash once, the
siren will chirp once (or the horn will honk once) and the LED Status Indicator will begin to
flash confirming that the system is armed. Further, the doors will lock and the starter interrupt
circuit will prevent any attempt to start the vehicle. Three seconds after the single siren chirp
(or horn honk) and light flash, your security system is fully armed, and is ready to respond if
an intrusion attempt is detected.
Page - 11
Arming Bypass: Upon arming, if any protected circuit is inoperable, that circuit will be
bypassed. For example, if the trunk is left open, you can still arm the system normally from the
transmitter. The bypassed circuit will automatically be reinstated for protection 5 seconds after
that circuit becomes operative, i.e., the trunk is closed. When a triggered circuit is in a bypassed
state, all other operating circuits will be protected normally.
Silent Arming and Disarming: Upon arming or disarming, if the confirmation siren chirps
(or horn honks) are not desired, simply press and release the transmitter's small center button
before pressing and releasing the large button.
Sensor Bypass: Your Excalibur Gold system provides you with the convenient option of
temporarily deactivating the Auxiliary Sensor without affecting any other trigger circuit. To
deactivate the Auxiliary Sensor, simply press and release the small lower transmitter button
within 3 seconds after pressing the large transmitter button when arming the system. You will
hear a second siren chirp (or horn honk), confirming the security system has armed without
the sensor circuit protecting the vehicle. The next time you arm the security system, the system
will reset to its normal condition, and the Auxiliary Sensor will again be part of your protection.
If desired, a second Auxiliary Sensor may be easily added to your system.
You may program your Excalibur Gold security system to automatically arm and, if desired,
also lock the doors. This feature is described in the following section. Automatic Rearming
is another method whereby the system can become armed. This is a Programmable Feature,
which may be configured to operate if desired, and is described on Page 14.
Page - 12
Passive System Arming And Rearming
Automatic Last Door Arming: Your security system can be programmed to arm automati-
cally when the vehicle's last door is closed. The moment the last door closes the siren will chirp
once (or the horn will honk once), the parking lights and dome lights will flash once and the
LED Status Indicator will begin to flash rapidly. Thirty seconds later the siren will again chirp
once (or the horn will honk again), the lights will flash once, the doors will lock (if the Last Door
Lock feature has also been chosen) and the LED Status Indicator will slow to a steady flash,
confirming that the security system is fully armed. However, if a point of entry is reopened
before the single siren chirp (or horn honk) and light flash at 30 seconds, this passive arming
process stops, and will reset to start over again when that point of entry is reclosed.
"Automatic Last Door Arming" offers a high level of security, since it does not require you
to remember to arm the security system when you leave your vehicle. Additionally, Automatic
Last Door Arming may entitle you to an insurance discount. Please note that the previously
described Arming Bypass feature does not operate with Automatic Last Door Arming. The
Arming Bypass is designed to operate only when arming from the transmitter, because all
protected entries must be closed prior to the Automatic Last Door Arming sequence to start.
To prevent the system from automatically arming while the vehicle is being refueled you
should put the system in Valet Mode, or keep your door open. We do not recommend leaving
your ignition key turned "on". Last Door Arming does not effect the operation or use of the
transmitter to arm the system - if desired, the transmitter may still be used to arm the system
at any time.
Automatic Rearming:Selecting this feature adds Automatic Rearming, which is
independent of Automatic Last Door Arming. This feature will cause the system to
automatically rearm itself 90 seconds after disarming, unless the ignition switch is turned "on".
This prevents the accidental disarming of the system by the inadvertent pressing of the
transmitter's button while placing it in a purse or pocket. If the "Automatic Relocking"
Programmable Feature is utilized, the doors will also lock when the system automatically
rearms. Automatic Rearming is indicated by a fast flashing LED Status Light during the 90
seconds, then a parking and dome light flash when the system rearms.
Remote Valet: This Feature, which operates as part of the Automatic Rearming Feature,
will temporarily cancel the Automatic Rearming. To use Remote Valet, press and release the
small lower transmitter button within 3 seconds after pressing the large transmitter button
when disarming the system. The parking lights will flash on and off, and the LED Status
Indicator will illuminate steady to confirm Remote Valet operation. The system will remain in
Remote Valet mode until armed again by transmitter; or, the Valet Switch may be pressed.

Security System Armed And Activated
While the security system is armed, the LED Status Indicator will be flashing. Should any
intrusion attempt occur, your system will instantly activate, or "trigger". Once triggered, the
system will:
1 )Sound the electronic siren or the vehicle's horn. The siren features six different tones,
and every 5 seconds the siren will change the tone to generate more attention to the
vehicle. The horn will sound a series of honks, sounding for one second, then pausing
one second. Every ten seconds, the horn honking will pause completely for 5
seconds, which avoids overheating the horn. This will occur for the duration of the
activated cycle.
2 )The exterior lights will flash.
3 )The doors will relock. This feature is so unique that the security system monitors the
status of the door and, if open, the system waits until the door is closed, at which time
it relocks the doors, so that the thief cannot easily regain entry.
The siren (or horn) and the parking lights will stay active for 60 seconds, or, unless you
disarm the system with the transmitter or by using the Valet Override. If all protected entries
are secure at the end of 60 seconds, the system will stop and rearm automatically to detect
another entry attempt. If there is a protected entry still open, or an optional sensor still in a
triggered state at the end of 60 seconds, the system will reactivate for two more 60 second
Page - 15
Page - 14
cycles. The system will stop after a total of 3 minutes and rearm automatically, while ignoring
only the open entry or triggered circuit. When the entry is closed, protection will begin
instantly for that circuit.
After the activation of the security system, the disarm confirmation will no longer be 2 siren
chirps (or horn honks), and the parking lights staying on. Instead, the system responds by
producing 4 siren chirps (or horn honks) and the parking lights and dome lights flash 4 times
before staying on for 30 seconds. The LED Status Light changes to flashing two to five times,
then pausing 1 second to indicate which protected zone triggered the system. The LED Status
Light will continue flashing this Zone Violation Code until the ignition switch is turned “on”,
which clears the system's LED Status Light memory circuit.
Disarming The System Using The Transmitter
While the security system is in the armed state, pressing and releasing the large transmitter
button once will instantly disarm the system and unlock the doors. Disarming is confirmed
by the siren chirping twice (or the horn honking twice), and the parking and interior lights
turning on for 30 seconds. However, the lights will turn off instantly if the ignition switch is
turned "on". If the system was triggered while you are away, the disarm confirmation will
change to four siren chirps (or 4 horn honks), 4 light flashes, and then the lights will stay on
for 30 seconds, to illuminate the way to your vehicle. The security system will have this
response upon disarming until the ignition switch is turned "on", which clears the unit's
memory. Anytime the security system triggers, the LED Status Light will
