Scrolling Through Names

The Omni IIe stores names for Units, Zones, Buttons, Codes, Temperatures, and Messages so that you don't have to remember that "UNIT 5" is the "DEN LIGHT" and "ZONE 1" is the "FRONT DOOR". In general, any time you enter a unit, zone, button, code, temperature, or message number, you can press the down arrow key to display its name, then use the up and down arrow keys to scroll through the list of other names. This is true when entering commands and programming on the console. Only named items are displayed on an OmniTouch touchscreen.

Controlling Units

The control menu is used when controlling lights and appliances. To enter the control menu, from the top-level display or from the main menu, press the 1 (CTRL) key on the console keypad. Omni IIe will automatically display the first named item in that list. The down arrow key can then be used to scroll through the list, and the ' # ' key is used to select the item. If the specific item number is known, enter the item number followed be the ' # ' key, or scroll up and down among the named items.

After the unit has been selected, press the ' # ' key. The console will display:
