Arming the System (cont) 
WHEN THE SYSTEM IS NOT READY 
If the system is not ready to be armed, the READY/
✔ light will be off and the 
display will show which zone or zones are not ready.  The following conditions will 
be indicated by the zone lights (LED keypad) or described on the display: 
Fast Blink  ............................... Alarm or tamper condition 
Slow Blink/Low Intensity ... Bypass 
Slow Pulse  .............................. Trouble, problem with RF receiver, or low battery 
Solid On ................................... Zone faulted 
Example: If the READY/
✔ light is not lit and the Zone 1 light is solid on, an 
alarm sensor on Zone 1 is faulted.  This might mean that a door is open or someone 
is walking in view of a motion sensor.  Check all sensors on Zone 1 and resolve the 
problem.  When all sensors are restored, the READY/
✔ light will come on and the 
zone light will go out.  In this example, the display shows: 
NOT READY 
 and NOT RDY  ZN 1 
FRONT DOOR 
Determine which zone or zones are not ready, resolve the problem, and arm the 
system normally.  If the problem cannot be resolved, you may bypass the zone that 
is not ready.  Bypassing should only be done if the problem on the zone cannot be 
resolved, OR if you intentionally wish to leave the zone disarmed.  For example, you 
would leave the zone disarmed if you plan to keep the window open for ventilation.  
Zones that are bypassed are not protected when the system is armed.  See 
TO BYPASS A ZONE on page 13 for a description of the procedure. 
TO ARM THE SYSTEM AND STAY INSIDE  
To arm the perimeter portion of your burglar alarm and move around freely inside 
the premises, use the STAY mode.  
Check to make sure the system is ready.  When it is ready, press: 
STAY /  followed by your user code. 
When the system has been armed successfully, the ARMED/
 (STAY) light is lit 
and the following is displayed: 
LCD Keypad: 
ON: STAY 
  
Fixed-Word Keypad: 
STAY/
 LED Keypad: 
ARM/ and STAY/ LEDs lit 
REMEMBER:  You must disarm the system or press STAY /  to initiate 
the “quick exit” if you want to open the door or leave the premises after the exit 
time has expired.  Quick Exit restarts the exit time without disarming the system.

Arming the System (cont) 
TO ARM THE SYSTEM IN INSTANT MODE 
In INSTANT mode, all alarm sensors, including doors that normally have a delay 
to allow you to disarm the system, will report an alarm immediately if activated.  
Check to make sure the system is READY/
✔.  When it is ready, press: 
INSTANT/  followed by your user code. 
When the system has been armed successfully, the ARM/
 light and the

TO ARM THE SYSTEM IN INSTANT MODE AND STAY INSIDE 
In INSTANT STAY mode, the perimeter portion of your burglar alarm system is 
armed, but the time delays are eliminated from your normal entry/exit door(s).  All 
interior protection is disarmed, so you are free to move around inside. 
 
Check to make sure the system is READY/✔.  When it is ready, press: 
INSTANT /  
STAY /  followed by your user code. 
When the system has been armed successfully, the ARM/
 light, the INSTANT /

Arming the System (cont) 
TO BYPASS A ZONE 
The Bypass function excludes a zone of protection from the security system until it 
is unbypassed (either by using the unbypass procedure or when you disarm the 
system).  Bypassing can only be done while the system is disarmed. 
NOTE: 24-hour zones may be bypassed, but can only be unbypassed if the zone is 
not faulted (condition has been cleared). 
Press the BYPASS/
 button.  Then enter your user code and the zone number 
to be bypassed, as follows: 
BYPASS /  followed by your user 
code† 
 + Zone 
No.
 † If the Quick Bypass feature has been enabled by the installer, do not enter the 
user code when bypassing zones. 
NOTE:  Bypassed zones are NOT protected when the system is armed.  After the 
bypass command has been accepted, the keypad sounds one long beep, and the 
following is displayed: 
LCD Keypad:
 
BYPASSED:    ZN 01 
FRONT DOOR  
Fixed-Word Keypad: 
BYPASS/ 
Zone number displayed LED Keypad:
 
Zone LEDs of the zone(s) 
bypassed slowly blink 
To Bypass multiple zones, within 10 seconds of the BYPASS/ + User Code + 
Zone No. entry, enter: 
BYPASS /  +    Zone No. 
This command can be repeated for each zone to be bypassed. 
TO UNBYPASS A ZONE 
Pressing the BYPASS/
 button returns a bypassed zone to normal operation. 
To unbypass a zone, the system must be disarmed.  (Also note that 24-hour zones 
cannot be unbypassed if they are faulted.)  To unbypass a zone(s), repeat the bypass 
function as follows: 
BYPASS /  followed by your user 
code† 
 + Zone 
No.
 
† If the Quick Bypass feature has been enabled by the installer, do not enter the 
user code when unbypassing zones. 
After unbypassing, the zone display will show the state of the zones.

Disarming the System  
When you disarm the system, you disarm only the burglar portion of your system; 
any smoke or heat detectors and panic keys will remain armed.  You must enter 
through a designated entry door and disarm the system within the time allowed.  
You can have different amounts of time for different entry points. See your system 
reference sheet (page 7) for the times established for your system. 
 
To disarm your system:  
Enter your user code.   
If no alarms have taken place, the ARMED/ light will go off, or the display 
shows: 
 
LCD Keypad: 
SYSTEM READY 
  
Fixed-Glass Keypad: 
READY/✔ LED lit LED Keypad:
 
READY/✔ LED lit 
 
If alarms occurred when the system was armed or if a trouble condition exists, the 
display shows: 
 
LCD Keypad: 
ALM MEM          ZN1 
  
Fixed-Glass Keypad: 
ARM LED/ lit 
READY/
✔ LED blinks LED Keypad, zone LEDs:
 Fast Blink = alarm or tamper 
Slow Blink = bypass 
Slow Pulse = trouble, problem 
with RF receiver, or low battery 
Solid On = zone faulted
  
Burglary alarms will sound a steady tone at the keypad(s), and fire alarms will 
generate a pulsing sound. 
 
IMPORTANT:  If an intrusion has taken place while you were away, do not enter 
until the location has been checked.  Call for help from a neighbors house and wait 
there for the police. 
 
To clear the display of alarm or trouble conditions and silence the audible alert:  
Enter your user code again.

User Codes 
TO ADD OR CHANGE A USER CODE 
Users can be added or changed directly at the keypad.  Your system can have up to 
15 (OMNI400 and OMNI600), 32 (OMNI624), or 64 (OMNI848) different user codes, 
with each assigned to one of four authority levels and to a primary partition 
(OMNI624 and OMNI848 only).  The authority level determines the functions that 
user can perform.  In addition, your system can be set up for 4-digit or 6-digit user 
codes.  Ask your installer which type of user codes is used in your system. 
To add or change a user code, press the following: 
CODE /  +   Master User Code  User ID*   New User Code  Auth. Level 
  nn  [1-4] 
*  Valid User ID numbers are 01–15 for the OMNI400 and OMNI600, 01–32 for the 
OMNI624, or 01–64 for the OMNI848. 
Authority Levels 
Level Functions Allowed 
1  Primary Master: access all partitions; can view log and set time; assign other user 
codes; all system functions 
2  Secondary Master: same as primary master except cannot change the primary 
master’s code 
3  User: cannot assign codes and cannot bypass zones 
4  Limited user: same as level 3, except can disarm the system only if it was armed by 
another user with level 4 authority (cannot disarm if armed by user of higher authority 
level). 
ASSIGNING PARTITIONS TO USERS (OMNI624 and OMNI848 ONLY) 
When a user code is assigned, that user is automatically allowed to perform system 
functions in the partition in which the user’s code is assigned.  You can also allow 
users to access other partitions and turn on open/close reporting to a pager by using 
the #7 command as follows: 
# 7 [master user code] [user no.] [1, 2, 3*, or 4] 
where:  master user code = user with authority level 1 or 2 
  user no. = the user that will be assigned access to other partitions 
  1, 2, 3, or 4 = enter the partition(s) 1-3* you want this user to have access 
to; enter 4 if you want this user to send open/close reports to a pager 
*  Partition 3 is available on the OMNI848 ONLY.

Miscellaneous Commands 
TO DELETE A USER CODE 
To delete a user, press the CODE/
 button followed by the 4-digit (or 6-digit) 
master user code.  Enter the user number, then press [#] to delete.  For example, to 
delete user 3, do the following: 
Master User Code User ID # to delete CODE /  
 
03 [#] 
NOTE:  User no. 1, the master user, cannot be deleted but it can be changed using 
the ADD OR CHANGE A USER CODE procedure. 
DURESS 
Your system can be programmed to send an emergency signal to the central station 
if you are forced to enter the premises under threat.  If you choose to include this 
feature, assign codes to user 15 (OMNI400 and OMNI600), 31 and 32 (OMNI624), 
or 60-64 (OMNI848), which are dedicated to this function, if programmed.  Use 
these codes only under a duress circumstance. 
QUICK ARMING 
If programmed by your installer, Quick Arming allows you to arm the system in the 
AWAY mode without entering a user code.   
Press 
#, then 1. 
NOTES: 
•  Disarming your system always requires a valid user code. 
•  This system can be programmed by the installer for the AUTOSTAY feature 
which automatically bypasses interior zones if you arm the system and do not 
exit through a delay zone during exit time. 
QUICK FORCED ARMING 
If programmed by your installer, Quick Forced Arming allows you to arm the 
system in the AWAY mode by automatically bypassing all zones that are not ready. 
Press 
#, then 2. 
NOTES: 
•  A valid user code is still required to disarm the system. 
•  This system can be programmed by the installer for the AUTOSTAY feature 
which automatically bypasses interior zones programmed for AUTOSTAY if you 
arm the system and do not exit through a delay zone during exit time. 
UL NOTE:  This feature is disabled on UL installations.
