Trouble Indications
The Omni IIe constantly monitors the alarm zones and several internal matters and will alert you if it detects trouble. The
particular trouble is indicated on the bottom line of the display and a trouble signal is given by beeping the console beeper
continuously, 2 beeps per second.
When any trouble condition occurs, the console will beep twice per second and continue to beep until the ' * ' key (cancel) is
pressed to acknowledge the trouble. The console will say "TRBL NOW" (trouble now) if the trouble condition actually exists
while you are looking at the console. It will say "HAD TRBL" (had trouble) if the trouble occurred and then corrected itself.
The following are trouble indications and their meanings:
¾ ZONE NAME TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: If the reading for a zone becomes abnormal, trouble will be indicated on that
zone -See Status \ Test. Excessive resistance in the contact and wiring usually causes trouble on security zones. If the cause
is not obvious, call your installer for service.
¾ AC POWER OFF TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: Indicated if the normal house current powering the Omni IIe controller is
interrupted for more than 3 minutes. If this happens without good cause, check the wall mounted transformer to ensure that it
hasn't come out of the wall socket and check to see that the socket has power.
¾ BATTERY LOW TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: Every hour, the Omni IIe takes a dynamic test of the battery. If the battery
voltage is too low, then the console will indicate "BATTERY LOW". If this happens, make sure that the battery is
connected. The "BATTERY LOW" indication will remain until the next battery test is executed, 1 hour later, or when a
Status | Test command is given.
¾ COMMUNICATOR TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: Indicated if the digital communicator (not the voice dialer) was unable
to make contact with the Central Station after trying both numbers multiple times. If this happens, there could be a problem
with the system, central station, or the phone line. Call your installer for service.
¾ FUSE TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: Indicated when the solid state fuse that protects the "Auxiliary" power supply opens.
The fuse will automatically reset when the fault condition is cleared.
¾ PHONE LINE DEAD TRBL NOW or HAD TRBL: Indicated if the phone line is dead for more than 1 minute.
To silence the trouble beeps on the console, press the ' * ' key. If more than one type of trouble has occurred, the display will
show each one for two seconds. Pressing the ' * ' key will acknowledge all trouble indications.
If the trouble condition occurs again, the console beeper will beep again - See Set Up Arming, Beep On Trouble if you wish to
disable the beeper.
¾ NO CONTROLLER DATA: Indicated when console's alarm functions are no longer operational. This may indicate a
wiring problem to the console or a more serious problem. Call your installer for service.
Codes
There are 16 user codes that you may assign to users of the system. All Omni IIe codes are 4 digits in length. A code can be any
number from 0001 to 9999. Each user should be assigned a security code with an authority level, areas that can be accessed (if
area arming is used), and times and days in which the code will be valid. Memorize your codes! Don't give them to anyone who
doesn't need to know them.
The levels of authority that you can assign to a user code are Master, Manager, and User.
Master Code
The Master code allows complete access to the entire system. Only the owner(s) or the one(s) who will govern the system should
have and use the master code. A Master code is allowed access to all areas, all the time.
User code 1 is always set to a Master code - See Set Up Codes.
