Confirmation Beep

When you have successfully completed a function, such as entering a program or changing a setup item, the console will beep once.

Cancel

If you are ever unsure and wish to return to the top-level display, press the ' * ' key. You may have to press it more than once, depending on how far into the function (menu) you are. Each time you cancel out of an operation, the console will beep once to indicate that you have canceled.

The ' * ' key can also be used if you make a mistake while entering a number. For example, if you enter a 2 when you meant to enter a 3, press the ' * ' key to start over.

Time Out

If you are called away from the console for any reason (to take a phone call, for instance) while you are engaged in an operation, the console will "time out" and cancel it for you after 3 minutes. The display will return to the normal top-level display.

Areas

If there is an area or a separate building that needs to be protected, your installer can divide your Omni IIe system into two independent security systems: Area 1 and Area 2. Each area has complete access to all of the capabilities of the Omni IIe, yet the Omni IIe can protect each area individually.

You may decide to use the Area feature if you have a guesthouse or workshop that you would like to have protected separately from your home, or maybe you have a business and would like to protect an inventory stockroom separately from the offices in your building.

The console in each area acts as if it were controlling its own Omni IIe system. Each area is assigned, by your installer, a group of zones, control units, macro buttons, messages, and thermostats. These items can only be controlled where they have been assigned.

Omni IIe Maintenance

Your Omni IIe controller and the consoles are designed to require very little maintenance.

For smoke detectors, motion detectors, and other components not manufactured by HAI and follow maintenance procedures outlined by the manufacturer.

Consoles can be cleaned using a mild detergent and a soft cloth.

Every three years, or if the "BATTERY LOW TROUBLE NOW" indication comes on and stays on for an extended period without reason, the rechargeable battery in the controller should be replaced. The recommended battery type is a 12-volt, 7 amp- hour sealed lead-acid battery.

To replace the battery, disconnect the red battery wire from the battery (+) terminal. Cover the connector at the end of the wire with electrical tape to avoid its touching anything in the enclosure. Disconnect the black wire from the battery (-) terminal and cover the connector at the end of the black wire with tape. Remove the old battery. Install the new battery by reversing the removal procedure. Be very careful to connect the Black wire to the (-) terminal on the battery; Red wire to the (+) terminal.
