Home Automation SECURITY SYSTEM Remote Commands, Rings Before Answer, Dial Type, My Phone Number

Remote Commands

The Remote Commands Ok item allows you to prevent any commands from being issued from a remote telephone.

If Remote Commands Ok is set to Yes, the OmniLT will allow all commands to be executed when called from a remote telephone. If Remote Commands Ok is set to No, then lights, appliances, and the security system cannot be controlled from a remote telephone that dials into your home.

You can issue commands from a local (in-house) phone with Remote Commands Ok set to Yes or No. The default for Remote Commands Ok is Yes.

Rings Before Answer

Your phone must ring this number of times before the OmniLT will answer an incoming call to your phone.

To change Rings Before Answer, enter the new number from 1 to 15, then press the ' # ' key.

The factory default for Rings Before Answer is 8.

Dial Type

The Dial Type specifies the type of dialing used when the OmniLT dials out. If you do not have Touch-Tone service, then Dial Type must be set to Pulse.

The default dial type is Tone.

My Phone Number

My Phone Number is the phone number that will be announced when the OmniLT dials out in the event of an alarm. It should be set to the phone number of the premises where your system is installed.

To enter phone numbers, press the keypad keys 0 - 9. You can put in a dash (-) for legibility by pressing the Off key. Press the ' #

'key after you have pressed all of the digits in the phone number. For example, to enter the number 555-1234, press 555 'OFF' 1234 #.

Dial Out Number 1

Dial Out Number 1 is one of the 8 numbers that are stored in the system. In the event of an alarm, these numbers are dialed in the order that is set up in the Dial Out Order for the particular type of alarm.

Dial out numbers 1 - 8 have On and Off times and days, so that no time is wasted calling you at the office at night or on a Sunday if the alarm is activated.

For dial out number 1, you should enter your office number where you can be reached during working hours.

You can also press the NIGHT key (*) and the AWAY key (#) for symbols to get through some types of telephone or pocket beeper/pager systems.
