INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing your new OmniLT automation system. You are about to experience a new feeling of comfort, convenience, and control. Please take a few moments to become familiar with all of the features of this fine product by reviewing this manual. Please keep this manual on file for future reference.
2- ' DAY ' The ' DAY ' key is used to arm the security system in the Day mode. In the Day mode, the perimeter zones (doors and windows) are protected, however, the interior zones are not armed so that you may move about freely inside. In this mode, there is an entry delay on entry-exit zones.
7- CONSOLE LED The Console LED is used to indicate whether the security system is currently armed or disarmed. If armed in any of the security modes, the LED will be set to red. If the system is disarmed, the LED will be set to green. The LED will flash when a Message is displayed.
When using the arrow keys to scroll through lists of units, zones, buttons, codes, and temperature zones, only the named items are displayed. If no text description has been given to an item, it will be skipped over when scrolling through that list. You can still enter any item number to access it directly, and then scroll up and down among the named items.
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.
Arming the Security System Now that you know how to disarm the system, here's how to arm the security system. The security menu is used to arm and disarm the security system. To enter the security menu, from the top-level display, press the 2 key on the console keypad. The...
2 = NIGHT The NIGHT mode is used when you are asleep and everyone in your household is at home. In the Night mode, your doors, windows, and non-sleeping area (i.e. downstairs) motion detectors are armed. In the Night mode, there is no entry delay. The alarm system sounder will be activated immediately if any door, window, or non-sleeping area (motion detector) is tripped.
Quick Arm For extra convenience, the OmniLT can be armed by simply pressing the DAY, NIGHT, or AWAY button twice, eliminating the need to enter the code. To quick arm the system in the Away mode, from the top-level display, press AWAY AWAY The quick arm feature only works if the alarm system is in the Off mode, and if no alarms are sounding.
The system will wait the Entry Delay time. You should go to your console (or telephone) immediately and turn the security system off. If you wish, you may go directly to a different security mode, rather than turning the system Off.
Fire Alarm Activated When the fire alarm is activated by the smoke/fire detector(s), the alarm responds exactly as described under Burglar Alarm Activated, except: • The console display reads, "FIRE ALARM! ZONE NAME TRIPPED". • The sounder will activate in a 3 pulse temporal pattern to distinguish the fire alarm from the burglar alarm. •...
Police Emergency When the 1 key and the 3 keys are pressed simultaneously, the Police Emergency alarm is activated. This alarm operates exactly the same as described for Burglar Alarm Activated except: • The console display indicates: "BURGLARY! - POLICE EMERG TRIPPED". Fire Emergency When the 4 key and the 6 key is pressed simultaneously, the Fire Emergency alarm is activated.
Trouble Indications The OmniLT 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.
The system will disarm normally. No sirens will sound, no lights will flash, but the OmniLT will perform a silent dial out and say that this is a silent alarm. To stop a silent dial out, turn your security system off the usual way, pressing Off key, then your code. Panic Switches If you have had panic switches installed, they are always armed.
CONTROL The control features of the OmniLT make it easy and convenient to control almost any light or appliance from the console or over the telephone. You may also have your heating and air conditioning (HVAC) under control of the system, which will allow you to save energy dollars by setting the temperature appropriately when you are home, asleep, or away.
When set to UPB, the OmniLT controller can: Send commands (on, off, bright, dim and level) to individual switches and modules Receive commands and status from individual switches and modules Send commands to keypad controllers to change scenes and control LED backlight behind the keys Receive commands when buttons are pressed on keypad controllers to activate controller macros Send Link commands to switches, modules, and keypad controllers to activate scenes Receive Link commands when a button is pressed on a switch or on a keypad controller to activate controller macros...
When “Status Tracking” is enabled (this is the default setting), OmniLT keeps track of the exact status of each unit even when a lighting scene is initiated by the Room Controller. Room Controllers also keep track of when individual switches in a room are turned on and off.
When set to RadioRA, the OmniLT controller can: Send commands (on, off, and level) to individual Switches and Dimmers Receive status (on and off) from individual Switches and Dimmers Receive commands when buttons are pressed on Master Controls Execute Phantom Button commands About ALC ALC is intended for installation in homes, which have been pre-wired for installation of ALC system products.
Scrolling Through Names The OmniLT 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.
Each lighting scene can also be set or easily changed using the pushbuttons on the HAI UPB™ 6-Button Room Controller, as follows: Step Operation Press the desired pushbutton on the HAI UPB™ 6-Button Room Controller to activate the current scene (preset lighting level) in each of the HLC devices.

Ramp Command (ALC) When ALC Switch Modules are being used, it is possible to ramp the lighting level of an ALC Dimmer Switch to a new level at a selectable ramp rate. Only ALC Dimmer Switches respond to the Ramp command. Press the 5 (RAMP) key to select the ramp command.
The timed commands allow a units to be turned on or off for a specified period of time. The unit may be turned On for 1-99 (minutes or seconds), or 1-18 hours, then Off; or turned Off for 1-99 (minutes or seconds) or 1-18 hours, then On. Lighting units (1-16) may also be dimmed or brightened for a specified period of time.
The OmniLT has 2 (expandable to 10) outputs that can be used to switch relays. Outputs 1 and 2 are controlled by unit numbers 27 and 28. These are hardwired outputs that are connected directly through the OmniLT and not through a module. If you have something connected to these outputs, such as a sprinkler system, your dealer will explain its operation.
Leviton Scene Control OmniLT supports Leviton Scene Control (a feature found in certain Leviton Switches. There are 16 Scenes that can be set and executed. The Leviton Switches are divided into "lighting groups" of four units each. Each of these lighting groups can be set to four different Scenes.
Scene Off Command Once the Scenes have been sent, press the 0 (OFF) key to command the four units in that Scene to turn off. Notes: 1. When sending Scene Commands, the controller must be configured to allow Extended Code transmissions. 2.

Pro-Link also has the capability to monitor the serial port for incoming text messages. When a text message is received, Pro-Link searches through all 16 messages for a matching message. If one is found, the Program Command (macro) corresponding to the matching message is activated.
TELEPHONE CONTROL Telephone Interface Your OmniLT is equipped with a built-in telephone response feature that allows you to control and access the status of your system from any Touch-Tone phone. The OmniLT actually talks to you using a digital recording of an actual human voice, so the sound is incredibly life like. You send commands to the OmniLT using the keys of your Touch-Tone telephone.
Phone Access Denied - Remote Lockout The OmniLT has a remote lockout feature to discourage youngsters (and adults who act that way) from trying to access your system. If four invalid codes are entered, the system will hang up and a one-hour lockout period will begin. During the lockout period, the OmniLT will not answer a call after any number of rings, which should discourage the caller.
When you are finished with the voice menu, press the 9 (Good-Bye) key. The OmniLT will say, "GOOD-BYE" and hang up. From an in-house phone, the dial tone will return. From a remote phone, you will hear a click as the OmniLT hangs up. It is recommended that you press 9 to terminate a remote call.
Emergency Dial-Out Emergency dial out consists of two distinct parts: the "digital dialer" and the "voice dialer." Digital Dialer The digital dialer (also called a "digital communicator") reports alarm events to a central station monitoring center. The digital dialer sends a digitally coded message to the central station's receiver and computer. The computer in the central station presents your name, address, and other information to a human operator who notifies the appropriate authorities.
If the number dialed is busy, or if all lines are busy, the dialer will immediately hang up and go to the next number in the Dial Order. The dialer will wait up to 45 seconds after it finishes dialing a complete phone number for a voice to answer. If it doesn't hear a voice in that time, it goes on to the next number.
High Security Mode, and have telephone access privilege. 3 = User User codes can only be used to arm and disarm the security system during assigned times. Telephone access is not a User privilege. You can specify the access (on/off) times for the code, this is, the time periods during which the code is valid.
The system will disarm normally. No sirens will sound, no lights will flash, but the OmniLT will perform a silent dial out and say that this is a silent alarm. To stop a silent dial out, turn your security system off by pressing OFF, then your code. DURESS CODE:...
