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.
OVERALL DESCRIPTION Console Operation The console is designed with everything that is necessary for you to program and operate your OmniLT control and security system. Because we feel that it is very important for you to feel comfortable with the operation of your OmniLT, we recommend that you start by becoming familiar with your console.
6- UP ARROW The Up Arrow key is used to scroll through menus and lists. The Up Arrow is used to scroll back through a list (for example, if you have already used the down arrow to scroll to an item, the Up Arrow will bring you back to a previous item). 7- CONSOLE LED The Console LED is used to indicate whether the security system is currently armed or disarmed.
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.
OmniLT Maintenance Your OmniLT 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.
SECURITY SYSTEM OPERATION Disarming the Security System and Silencing Alarms Before going any further, you should know how to disarm your security system in the event that the alarm sounds. Turning the system OFF disarms the burglar alarm, resets the fire and emergency alarms, and silences all sirens and sounders. Press the OFF key.
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.
What To Do When You Come Home Entry through a door: If you enter your home while the system is armed in the Day or Away modes, using your normal entry door: • Console beeper comes on - display indicates: " *** DISARM SYSTEM *** - PRESS OFF THEN CODE" •...
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.
Testing Your System HAI recommends testing your system on a weekly basis to ensure that you are fully protected. Notify your Central Station that you intend to test the system. To test the siren, press the 1 and 3 keys simultaneously.
X-10, X-10 Pro, Leviton, PCS, ACT, Lightolier, and compatible modules for lights and small appliances. • HAI Communicating Thermostats for controlling Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning Systems. • Programmable Energy Saver Modules (PESM) for central heating and air conditioning systems.
Unit Numbers Each module has its own Unit Number. Any unit number that is not being used for an ALC Switch Module may be used for an X-10 Module. ALC Switch Modules and X-10 Modules may not be assigned to the same unit number. Each ALC switch module must have a unique address.
If the House Code is configured to use the Compose Format, the second page of the menu is modified to allow Scene commands. When configured as Compose, the Level and Ramp Commands are removed from the menu. Entry Lights (Unit Name) ↑...
The rate specifies the time it takes the switch to go from full off to full on, or from full on to full off. Thus a level change from full off to 50% on will take half the time specified. Before any digits are entered, the ' # ' key may be used to switch between specifying the rate in minutes, seconds, and hours.
Internal Flags A Flag is an internal setting (think of it as a virtual switch – it can be turned on and off) used to conditionalize a program (based on the state of the switch), or to run macro buttons when the Flag is turned Off (0) or On (1-255). Any Flag can also be used as a counter.
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.
Other appliances can be controlled by temperature as well - such as a bathroom heater or a ceiling fan. The temperature menu is used to control HAI Communicating Thermostats, Programmable Energy Saver Modules, and Temperature Sensors. The status of each of these may also be displayed on the console.
Press the ' # ' key when the desired temperature zone is shown. Press the ' 0 ' key to select all HAI Thermostats. This is a simple way to broadcast the new Heat or Cool setting or change the system mode, fan mode, or hold mode of all HAI thermostats in your system.
Programmable Energy Saver Modules (PESMs) The PESM is used when you are have any thermostat, other than a HAI Communicating Thermostat, and would like to control your heating and cooling system with the OmniLT system. The PESM is a temperature sensor and control relay in a small enclosure that mounts near your central heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system thermostat.
Page 27
The PESM provides an energy saver function. When the energy saver is on, the HVAC system is set back, meaning that the temperature is allowed to rise or fall to an energy saving level. When the energy saver is off, your thermostat operates normally. Your thermostat should be set to the desired comfort temperature.
To set a temperature setpoint, press 2 (HEAT) or 3 (COOL). For Celsius temperatures, press the ' # ' key prior to entering the temperature to make the number negative. The Celsius temperature may also be specified in 0.5 degree steps if three numeric digits are entered. The third digit adds a .5 to the first two digits if it is any- thing other than zero.
Outdoor temperature zones have a High and Low temperature associated with them that can be used for control purposes. An example where the bathroom heat is turned on if the outdoor temp goes below 60 degrees is shown in the Programming section. High and Low temperatures are changed the same way as a PESM.

Next, select the message to be sent. You may enter the message number followed by the ' # ' key to send that message, or simply press the down arrow key to scroll through a list of messages.
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.
SETUP The Setup menu is used to configure operating parameters, program your system to do its automated control and security functions, and give descriptions (names) for all of your zones, units, buttons, codes, temperatures, and messages. To enter the Setup menu, from the top-level display or from the main menu, press the 9 (SETUP) key on the console keypad. Upon entry to the Setup mode, you will first be prompted to enter a security code: SET UP ENTER CODE:...
