Echo is configured for “MUTE” operation (vibrates instead chirping), then in
programming it will not play the musical melodies. Instead, it vibrates when
the remote starting Start Melody and Stop Melody are accessed for program-
ming.
Other Omega Echo Notes:
• The system will only transmit a signal to the Echo transceiver if the Echo was
last used to operate the system (as in Arming or Disarming it). Example: if
the transmitter is used to Arm the system, the system will not transmit a signal
which will cause the Echo to chirp and change its icons.
• If multiple Echo transceivers are programmed to operate the system, the sys-
tem will send its signal to only one transceiver- the last one used.
• When the Crime Guard 850i
4
e system does send a signal to the Echo trans-
ceiver, a few seconds is needed for this “handshake” to occur. If the
system is operated in a rapid fashion, as in quickly repeating Arm and Disarm
cycles, the Echo will not have time to receive the signal from the system, and
therefore it will stop responding and reporting the system’s status. Normally
operating the system corrects this symptom.
• A final point to remember is that the Echo transceiver cannot receive a signal
from the 850i
4
e system while it itself is transmitting. For normal operations,
the Echo’s buttons are pressed and released. Even when “Panic” is operated,
the Echo button should be released as soon as “Panic” engages. Otherwise,
the Echo cannot receive the signal from the system.
FEATURES PROGRAMMING CHECKLIST
This handy checklist simplifies the features programming process. Before
attempting feature programming, please refer to pages 27-43 for the full
programming procedure and a detailed description of each feature.
Repeat - Steps 2 and 3 for each remaining feature to be changed
Step 3 - Press the transmitter’s "Arm/Lock" button to turn the feature “on” (1
chirp) or press the "Disarm/Unlock" button to turn the feature “off” (2
chirps).
Step 2 - Press the Valet Switch the same number of times as the desired feature
number. The system will chirp back the same number.
Step 1 - Turn the ignition “off”, and press the Valet Switch 5 times. The siren
will briefly sound to confirm programming mode.

ABOUT YOUR NEW CRIME GUARD SYSTEM
Congratulations on your purchase of a new Crime Guard security and remote
starting system. Crime Guard systems combine the benefits of easy-to-use
convenience with “no nonsense” protection of property and person. Please
review this guide to become familiar with your Crime Guard vehicle security and
remote starting system. To operate your system, the four principal components
are first described: the Remote Transmitter and Remote Transceiver, the Status
Light, and the Valet Switch.
The Status Light: The multicolored Status Light, placed in a visible location
in the vehicle’s interior, reports the operational status of the system at all times,
and also serves as a visual deterrent to break-ins and theft. Specific description
of the Status Light operation may be found on pages 25-26.
The Valet Switch: The Valet Switch has three main functions:
✓ The Valet Switch can be used to turn off the security functions, including any
automatic arming or locking features (if used), and/or remote engine starting
functions of the system. The former is “Alarm Valet Mode”; the later is
“Starting Valet Mode” (pages 23-24).
✓ The Valet Switch can also be used, in conjunction with the vehicle’s ignition
key, to perform an emergency disarming of the security system in the event
the transmitter or transceiver is lost or becomes inoperable. This is referred
to as “performing an Emergency Override” (pages 13-14).
✓ The Valet Switch is used in the procedure of programming operational
features and also for encoding transmitters and transceivers to the system.
most visible, and the Valet Switch is
convenient to use (the SecureCode feature
protects against unauthorized disarming).
If desired, Crime Guard’s flexible design will
allow for separately mounting an optional
Valet Switch or Status Light. The Valet
Switch is a critical part of your Crime Guard
system! See Page 13-14 and 23-24.
