Using a Pager  
If so programmed, the system can send messages to a pager. The messages are 
displayed as follows: 
ACCT E XXX where: 
ACCT =  the 4-digit central station No. 1 account number set by your system 
installer. We suggest that you obtain the number from your system 
installer and record it here.
 ACCT = 
 E =  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 
  XXX =  the zone* or user* designation, depending on the event. 
* Possible Zone numbers are: 001–008 (OMNI400), 001–012 (OMNI600), 
001–024 (OMNI624), 001–048 (OMNI848) 
Possible User numbers are: 001–015 (OMNI400 and OMNI600), 001–032 
(OMNI624), 001–064 (OMNI848) 
Note that the following actions not requiring a user code are reported as: 
•  Soft keys *&#, 1&3, and 7&9 send event number 9 and zone number of 124. 
•  If the system is programmed by your installer for Stay Arms Stay, when the 
system is armed by pressing the [STAY/
] key it will be reported to the pager as 
user 001. 
•  If the system is programmed by your installer for Instant Arms Away, when the 
system is armed by pressing the [INSTANT/ 
] key it will be reported to the 
pager as user 001. 
•  If the system is armed with a keyswitch, programmable digits that were set up by 
your installer will be sent to the pager as the user number. 
•  When the system auto arms, it will be reported to the pager as user number 126. 
 If multiple events occur, only the signal for the highest-priority event is sent. Events ranked from 
highest to lowest priority are alarm, trouble, open, and close. 
CHANGING THE PAGER PHONE NUMBER (FOLLOW-ME) 
You can change your pager follow-me phone number as follows if your installer 
enabled this feature: 
1.  Access pager number programming by pressing the following keys in sequence: 
#, 5, and 8.  
An acknowledgement tone sounds to indicate pager number programming has 
been accessed.

Using a Pager (cont) 
 The [#], [5], [8] command is accessible only while the system is disarmed and the dialer, dialer 
delay, and bell are not active. 
In pager phone number programming mode, only the LCD keypad provides visual display of the 
numbers already programmed or numbers that are being changed.  The LED and fixed-word 
style keypads provide no visual keypad display of these numbers. 
2.  Enter your new pager phone number.  Your new pager phone number may 
consist of up to 16 characters (1-9, 0).  It may be necessary to add time to allow 
the pager to answer before dialing your pager number.  To enter a 2-second 
pause, press the 
CODE / key.  (Entering a 2-second pause is optional 
and is not required to enter your pager phone number.)  If the CODE/
 key 
was pressed, it counts as one character.  The keypad will emit a single 
acknowledgement chirp as each number is pressed. 
3. Press the 
# key after you have made your pager phone number changes. 
Pressing the [#] key saves your new pager number and nulls out the remaining 
locations.  An acknowledgement tone sounds. 
To exit without saving changes, press the 
T key to exit pager phone number 
programming.  An acknowledgement tone sounds to indicate pager number 
programming has been exited. 
 If you press the [✴] key without first pressing the [#] key to save your new pager phone number, 
the system exits the pager phone number programming mode without saving the changes. 
If no key is pressed within 10 seconds, the pager phone number programming mode times out 
and exits automatically without saving any information entered. 
TURN PAGER REPORTING ON/OFF FOR THE PARTITION (OMNI624 and 848 ONLY) 
You can turn on/off the open-close reporting feature for a partition by pressing 
#, 8.  The display prompts you to toggle the feature on/off with the 
# key.  To exit, press the T key.  
TURN PAGER REPORTING ON/OFF FOR A USER 
You can turn on/off the open-close reporting feature for a user by entering the 
following : 
#, 7, [master code] [user number] [4] 
NOTE:  The [#], [7] command is also used to assign a user to a different partition for 
the OMNI624 and 848 only (see ASSIGNING PARTITIONS TO USERS on page 15).

Testing the System 
SYSTEM TEST 
It is recommended that you test your system once a week using the 
following procedure: 
NOTE:  If your system is monitored, contact your central station before you perform 
this test. 
1.   Arm your security system. 
2.   Wait until your exit time is over.  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 will sound the ringback tone to confirm 
that the signal was received. 
4.   Disarm the security system. 
5.  Call the central station to tell them you are finished testing. 
 
BATTERY TEST 
It is recommended that you test your battery once a month.  In order to test your 
backup/standby battery, the following procedure should be followed: 
1.  Disconnect AC 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.   Reconnect AC Power to the system. 
IMPORTANT: Use only batteries recommended by your installer as a replacement. 
The National Fire Protection Association publishes a standard for fire warning 
equipment (NFPA publication #72).  Further information can be obtained by 
contacting: NFPA Public Affairs Dept., Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA  02269. 
If you have any further questions about the operation of your system, please contact 
your alarm company.

Recommendations On Smoke 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 follows:  A smoke detector 
installed outside of each separate 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.

 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.

Glossary 
AC/:  Small green power on-off light between the center buttons on the keypad.  When lit, the 
system is running on primary power; when not lit, the system is running off the backup battery. 
ALARM:  Sound from keypad or other horn/siren indicates a burglar alarm, fire alarm, or other 
condition you should be alerted to. 
ARMED/DISARMED:  These terms refer to the burglary portion of your security system. There are 
several levels of operation that allow you to protect part of your premises while you remain inside. 
Fire sensors and other emergency and environmental features are always active and ready (armed); 
they are not affected in any way by arming or disarming the burglary portion of your security 
system. See ARMED-INSTANT, ARMED-STAY, and STAY. 
ARM-STAY:   A system setting that turns on the perimeter protection of the building but allows 
movement throughout the interior.  
ARMED INDICATOR:  Red light in the upper portion of the keypad labeled Armed/
.  When lit, some 
part of the burglar alarm system is armed; when not lit, the burglary portion of the system is 
disarmed. 
AWAY:  A system setting that protects the premises while it is unoccupied.  All burglary sensors are 
active. 
BURGLARY/FIRE:  The two major functions of a security system.  Fire protection is always armed and 
cannot be disarmed.  The burglary sensors protect against unauthorized entry into your premises.  
The burglary protection can be armed and disarmed, and programmed for special levels of access 
and notification. 
BYPASS FEATURE:  The Bypass feature allows you to exclude a selected zone or zones from the 
burglar alarm protection.  
BYPASS/
 BUTTON:  A button on the keypad used to activate the Bypass feature. 
CENTRAL STATION:  The signal monitoring center contacted by your security system over the 
telephone and/or other communication channels when alarms are activated, if your system is 
programmed to communicate alarms off site.  The central station will follow their procedures and 
your instructions for contacting the proper authorities when a signal is received.  
CHIME FEATURE:  An optional feature that causes the keypad to chime for one second when selected 
doors are opened when the burglary protection is disarmed.  Once programmed by your installer, 
you can turn Chime on and off with [#] [6]. 
DISARMED:  See ARMED/DISARMED. 
DURESS:  Duress is a system feature that you may have programmed into your system.  If someone 
forces you to disarm your system, entering the special Duress user code disarms the system and 
sends a silent duress emergency signal to the central station so personnel there can respond 
appropriately.  
ENTRY DELAY:  The period of time allowed between opening a designated entry/exit door and 
disarming the alarm system before the system registers an alarm condition.  This is determined at 
the time of installation.  Your system supports two entry times, allowing you to have a different 
length of time for different doors.  
						

							- 28 - 
 
Glossary (cont) 
EXIT DELAY:  The period of time allowed between arming the system and leaving through a designated 
exit/entry door before the system will register an alarm condition.  This is determined at the time of 
installation. 
INTERIOR ZONE:  An interior zone is a group of points that protect the interior of your premises.  You 
may want to arm the perimeter portion of your system while leaving the interior zones disarmed to 
allow you to open interior doors and pass interior motion detectors without causing an alarm. 
KEYPAD:  A keypad is your link into your system.  It displays alarm and trouble messages, shows 
faulted zones, and allows you to arm/disarm the system using the buttons.  Your system will have 
one or more keypads. 
PANIC BUTTON:  A push button that allows you to signal the central station that you need immediate 
assistance.  Your system has programmable Keypad Send Help Alerts that can also serve as Panic 
buttons. 
PERIMETER ZONE:  A perimeter zone is a group of points that protect the exterior of your premises.  
Your outside doors and windows would be programmed as a perimeter zone. 
SENSOR:  The actual alarm sensor, detector or device installed to detect an intrusion, fire, or 
environmental problem.  Examples include: door contacts, window contacts, motion sensors, 
glassbreak sensors, smoke detectors, rate-of-rise heat detectors, temperature sensors, flood/water 
sensors, and carbon monoxide gas detectors. 
SILENT CONDITION:  Most types of alarms and troubles alert you with the keypad sounder and the 
sirens, horns, or speakers located in your premises. The intent is to advise you of the alarm or 
trouble and allow you to respond promptly.  The audible sounds also let an intruder know that he 
has been detected and will hopefully scare him away.  In some circumstances, an audible alarm 
might put your life in danger.  For that reason, those alarms are programmed as silent conditions.  
For an example, see DURESS.  
SYSTEM:  Your security system is composed of three main parts:  1) the control panel, which functions 
as the system brain and the link to the monitoring agency (central station); 2) the keypad(s), which 
provide you with system status and allow you to input commands; 3) security sensors such as door 
and window contacts, motion sensors, smoke detectors, and other sensors as required to detect 
intrusion, fire, and other conditions for your premises. 
USER CODE:  A user code is a 4- or 6-digit code that is required to operate the system.  The OMNI400 
and OMNI600 supports up to 15 separate user codes, the OMNI624 supports up to 32 separate user 
codes, and the OMNI848 supports up to 64 separate user codes.  The system supports one master 
user who can add/delete other user codes.  Two of the user codes may be dedicated to special 
functions as defined by your alarm company at the time of installation.  (See the User Code 
Assignments in this manual.) 
ZONE:  A zone is a collection of sensors with common characteristics grouped together for your 
operating convenience.
