Introduction

Welcome to the convenience and security of your Model One system. Model One systems are designed and manufactured by Omega Research and Development, a world leader in vehicle convenience and security since 1975. Your system offers easy, carefree operation, and the modular design allows its many impressive features to be customized to suit your needs

Therefore, please note that this guide is written to reflect:

- that a power doorlock interface is installed with your system. This interface may

vary from one vehicle to the other, and in some cases may involve optional

components.

- that the vehicle's horn is used for the audible output; an optional electronic siren

is also available.

- the Programmable Features in the default settings; the operations of these

features, if selected otherwise, are also explained in detail. The addition of an optional sensor is also affects the exact operations, as several types of auxiliary threat-detection sensing devices are available.

Your Model One system has three principal user components: the Remote

Transmitter, the red LED Status Light and the Valet Switch.

The Remote Transmitter: Each system is capable of being operated by up to four different remote transmitters. The remote transmitter has four push-button switches, each being labeled as to function. These are:

- The LOCK button arms the security system, which also locks the doors. This

button can also operate an additional "option" output.

- The UNLOCK button disarms the security system, unlocking the doors. This

operation can be configured to unlock the driver's door only upon one press of the

button; then, if desired, all of the doors upon a second press of the button.

- The OPTION button is used to silently arm or disarm the system, and can also

operate an additional remote control function such as trunk release.

- The PANIC button is used to easily engage and disengage the panic feature.

- Pressing LOCK and UNLOCK buttons for 2 seconds activates remote starting.

The Red LED Status Light: Informs you at a glance of the different conditions the security system is in and also serves as a visual deterrent to break-ins and theft.

the system from the transmitter, but with the indication that a protected circuit is not secure. After arming, the bypassed circuit will automatically be reinstated for protection should it become operative, i.e., if the trunk is closed, 3 seconds later protection of this circuit is restored. When a circuit is in a bypassed state, all other operating circuits will be protected normally. If desired, this feature may be custom programmed to also operate if a door is open upon when arming the system with the transmitter.

Passive Arming: The system can be custom programmed to arm itself automatically when the vehicle's last door is closed; this is the Last Door Arming feature. If this feature is programmed to operate, the moment the last open door is closed the horn chirps once and the parking lights flash once to confirm that all points of entry are closed, and that the arming sequence has begun. The arming period lasts 30 seconds, and is indicated by a fast-flashing LED status light. Thirty seconds after the last door was closed, the horn will chirp again, the parking lights will flash once, confirming completion of the Last Door Arming sequence. Three seconds later, the LED status light changes to flashing slowly, and the system is fully armed. If a point of entry is reopened before the single chirp and parking light flash occurs at 30 seconds, the Last Door Arming sequence stops, but will start over again when the opened point of entry is closed again. To temporarily prevent the system from Last Door Arming (example: while vehicle is being refueled), you should put the system into Valet Mode or leave the vehicle's door open (in most cases, turning on

Pressing and releasing the UNLOCK button disarms the system, and unlocks the doors unless

the system is activated. The unlock operation may be configured so that pressing the unlock button once disarms the system and unlocks only the driver's door, and pressing a second time will unlock all of the doors.

Pressing the PANIC button

Arming and Disarming the System

"Arming" the Model One system locks the doors places the security system into a state in which the vehicle is monitored for intrusion attempts. There are two different methods of arming the system: "active" arming by use of the remote transmitter, and automatic, or "passive" arming, which is programmable.

Active Arming: The system can always be armed with the remote transmitter, provided the ignition switch is "off" and the system is not in Valet Mode. Simply press the transmitter LOCK button once. The doors will lock, the parking and interior lights will flash once, the vehicle's horn will chirp once, the LED Status Light will begin flashing, and the starter interrupt circuit engages to prevent any attempt to start the vehicle. Three seconds after the horn chirp the system becomes fully armed, as indicated by the LED status light changing from a rapid flashing to a slow flashing. Once armed, the system will activate if an intrusion attempt is detected. If desired, the system may be armed without the normal confirmation horn chirp by pressing and releasing the transmitter's OPTION button twice within 3 seconds.

Upon active arming, if any protected circuit except for the doors is inoperable, the horn will chirp three times and the parking and interior lights will flash three times. This is Arming Bypass, and when it occurs, protection for the affected circuit will be temporarily bypassed. For example, if the trunk is left open, you can still actively arm

on pages 12-14. the dome light will suffice). The "Last Door Arming" feature offers a high level of

security, since you do not have to remember to arm the system each time you exit from your vehicle, and may qualify you for an insurance discount.

A separate programmable feature may be utilized to have the doors automatically lock when the 30 second horn chirp and light flash occurs. The previously mentioned Arming Bypass feature cannot operate with Last Door Arming; it only works when actively arming the system from the transmitter because all protected entries must be closed to initiate Last Door Arming. Of course, you can still arm the system instantly from the remote transmitter at any time during the 30 second Last Door Arming sequence.

Disarming: Press and release the remote transmitter's UNLOCK button once to disarm the system and unlock either the driver's door only, or all of the doors. How the doors unlock is determined by the installation configuration of the doorlock interface. Disarming is confirmed by the horn chirping twice and the parking lights turning on for 30 seconds to illuminate the way to your vehicle; the UltraOne will also illuminate the interior lights. During this 30 second period of illumination, if the ignition switch is turned "on" the lights will immediately turn off.

If the transmitter is not available or inoperative, the system must be disarmed by use of the Selectable Code Override, which is explained in detail on pages 12-14.

Page - 8

However, if the security system was activated while you are away, the disarm confirmation will be 4 horn chirps, and the lights will flash 4 times before staying on for 30 seconds. The system will have this disarming response until the ignition switch is turned "on". Also, anytime the security system has been activated, upon disarming the LED status light will indicate which of the protected zones caused the activation by flashing a code of numbered flashes between pauses. Again, this indication remains until the ignition switch is turned "on".

The system may be disarmed without the normal confirmation chirps by pressing

and releasing the transmitter's OPTION button twice within 2 seconds.

The Armed System

When the Model; One system is armed, the LED status light flashes continuously in a slow and steady manner. In this state, any violation of a protected entry or optional sensor will instantly activate, or "trigger" the system. If the system is activated:

- The vehicle's horn or the optional electronic siren will sound. The horn will

repeatedly sound for one second, then pause for one second. Every ten

seconds, the horn will stop sounding completely for 5 seconds; this prevents

the horn from overheating. This audible output will occur for the duration of the

activated cycle. The optional siren, used with the UltraOne, features six different

tones, and every 5 seconds the siren will change the tone to generate more

attention to the vehicle.

- The doors will relock. If opened, relocking will occur when the door is closed. The horn will sound and lights will flash for 60 seconds, unless you disarm the

system with the transmitter by pressing the UNLOCK button. If needed, the valet switch and ignition key may be used to disarm the system (Selectable Coded Override; pages 12-14). Please note that while the system is activated, pressing the UNLOCK button will only disarm the system, and not unlock the doors; simply press UNLOCK again to unlock the doors.

If all protected entries are secure at the end of 60 seconds, the system will stop

itself and rearm automatically to detect another entry attempt. If there is a protected entry still open, or a sensor still in a violated state at the end of 60 seconds, the system will reactivate for two more 60 second cycles. If this occurs, the system will still stop itself after a total of 3 minutes and rearm automatically, and ignore the open entry or violated sensor circuit while protecting the other circuits. Should the entry be closed or the sensor return to normal, protection will be reinstated for the affected circuit.

After the security system is activated, the confirmation upon disarming will no

longer be the normal two horn chirps, and the lights staying on for 30 seconds. Instead, the system will have 4 horn chirps and the lights will flash 4 times before staying on for 30 seconds. Additionally, the LED Status Light will change to flashing two to five times between pauses, indicating which protected zone activated the system. The LED Status Light will continue flashing this Violation Code until the ignition key is turned “on”.

The Valet Switch - Valet Mode and Override

The valet switch, which is typically contained within the same housing as the LED status light, allows the operator to suspend certain functions of the Model One system's normal operations. It is also used in an emergency override disarming of an armed and activated system, should the transmitter be unavailable or inoperative.

These are two separate and distinct operations: the first is Easy ValetTM, whereby a

Easy Valet

is in the disarmed state. Easy ValetTM is unique because other security systems require the ignition switch to be "on" to enter Valet Mode, but with the Model One, the ignition can be either "on" or "off", so the ignition key is not required.

Whenever the security system is disarmed, simply press and hold the valet switch for two seconds to enter the Valet Mode. The system will confirm it is entered Valet Mode with two horn chirps and the LED status light will illuminate and stay on constantly. The system will remain in Valet Mode if the ignition is turned "on" or "off", or even if the system is disconnected from the vehicle's electrical system. This is useful for servicing the vehicle; unless in a Valet Mode, the security system will

activate immediately when power and ground are first applied, such as when reconnecting a battery.

While in the Valet Mode, the remote transmitters can still operate the panic feature, the power door locks, or the trunk release, if equipped. Valet Mode prevents the system's alarm from being armed; using the transmitter to lock the doors still engages the starter interrupt, resulting in the LED status light flashing in a normal manner as an indication of this. To subsequently start the vehicle, either the transmitter must be used to unlock the doors, or valet switch must be used to disengage the starter interrupt. Additionally, the doors will lock when the ignition is turned "on" and unlock when it is turned "off"', if the system is programmed to do so. To remove the system from the Valet Mode, simply momentarily press the valet switch. The system will instantly revert to the disarmed condition. To confirm that the system has exited the Valet Mode, the LED status light will be extinguished. Remember, Easy ValetTM only operates when the system is in a disarmed state - an armed state, or if the doors are locked from using the transmitter, requires using the Selectable Code Override.

How to Disarm the System Without Using the Transmitter

Selectable Code Override: In the event the transmitter is lost, damaged, or it

is otherwise inoperable, the valet switch and your ignition key may be used to disarm the system. Selectable Code Override offers a high level of security because, in

Page - 12

addition to requiring the ignition key, one to two separate stages of pressing the Valet Switch may also be custom programmed as a requirement to accomplish the disarming of the system. Each of these stages may be further customized by programming multiple presses of the valet switch. This programmable feature, which is explained in detail on pages 29-30), allows you to further enhance the effectiveness of your security system by "hardening" its resistance to being defeated. The factoryset default for Selectable Code Override is one press at stage 1, and NO press at stage 2; this is the most convenient and user-friendly setting. Therefore, the following stepby-step instructions reflects first the default setting, and then the following text continues to explain the custom-programmed setting:

Step 1 - While the system in the armed condition, enter via the driver's door. Be

aware that the system will activate when the door is opened, sounding the horn, flashing the parking and dome lights, and locking the doors if the door entered is closed again before disarming the system.

Step 2 - Using your key, turn the ignition "on". The following step must be

performed within the next 10 seconds.

If the valet switch is pressed an incorrect number of times, or if stage #2 presses have been programmed, the system will not disarm, but pause and chirp the horn before continuing to sound. When a stage #2 entry is required, at this point the stage #2 entry must be made within 10 seconds. After a failed attempt to achieve Selectable Code Override, the ignition switch must be turned "off", then "on" again before another attempt is made. If two failed Selectable Code Override attempts are made, the system will ignore any further presses of the valet switch for two minutes. If this occurs, the system will reset to the armed state, then sound the horn twice after 2 minutes to indicate that another attempt may be made to achieve Selectable Code Override. See pages 29-30 for further explanation of the Selectable Code Override.

Once the system is disarmed, if Valet Mode is desired, use the Easy Valet procedure to place the system into Valet Mode. Remember, if the Selectable Code Override factory setting of "stage 1, one valet switch press and stage 2, no valet switch press" is still present, simply pressing the valet switch once within 10 seconds of turning the ignition switch "on" will override and disarm the system.

horn chirps.

Pressing and holding the PANIC button for 2 seconds will activate this feature,

sounding the horn, flashing the parking lights for 60 seconds, and locking the doors.

After 60 seconds, the system will stop and reset. The car's doors will remain locked, and the system will remain in the armed condition. If the system was in Valet Mode when Remote Panic was engaged, the system will be in an armed state if panic is stopped or if it is allowed to reset at 60 seconds. If you wish to stop the Panic feature during the 60 second period, press either the PANIC, LOCK or UNLOCK button. When doing this, pressing PANIC leaves the system armed without a door lock operation; pressing LOCK to stop panic will leave the system armed with locked doors, and pressing UNLOCK will leave the system disarmed with unlocked doors. If desired, the PANIC button may be used to operate the Additional Output; this programmable feature is described on page 39.

starting feature. The remote starting feature operation is as follows:

1) Press and hold the transmitter's LOCK and UNLOCK buttons for 2 seconds. The system will respond with one chirp and one parking light flash.

2) The engine will start, after which the system will chirp once more and flash the parking lights twice. The parking lights will then continue to flash twice between pauses for the duration of the engine run time.

- When leaving the vehicle before remote starting, remember to set the climate controls to the desired heating or air conditioning settings.

The engine will run for 10 minutes (the factory-set period). A 20 minute setting may

be programmed, if desired, by referring to the "Programming Features" section. Once the engine has been remotely started, to remotely stop the engine again press the transmitter's LOCK and UNLOCK buttons for 2 seconds. The system will stop the engine, chirp the siren twice and flash the parking and dome lights twice. If desired, the system's alarm function may be armed or disarmed as needed during remote start operations (the system must be disarmed before entering the vehicle).

Certain conditions will prevent the engine from remotely starting, or if remotely

started already, will stop the running engine. These conditions are:

1) Pressing the brake pedal.
