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. There are no tapes, discs, or other moving parts
associated with the speech and control features, so there is no maintenance or parts to wear out.

Only Touch-Tone phones will work with the OmniLT. Some phones have switches that allow you to select Pulse or Tone. Set
them to Tone to work with the OmniLT.

NOTE:

There are two keys on your Touch-Tone telephone that are special. The ' # ' key (pound key, to the right of the zero),

and the ' * ' key (star key, to the left of the zero). You will be using these keys.

In-House Phones

Each time you pick up your telephone at home, the OmniLT will also pick up the line and listen for a # (pound) key. If OmniLT
does not hear the # key within 3 seconds, it hangs up and does not listen in again until the next time you pick up your phone. If
the OmniLT hears any key other than the # key while it is listening in, it disconnects itself immediately.

If the OmniLT does hear the # key within 3 seconds of your picking up the receiver, it disconnects your phones from the phone
company lines and connects your phones to itself, and begins talking to you. When you hang up, your phones are immediately
reconnected to the phone company.

You will hear a slight click on your phone when the OmniLT picks up or hangs up. This is normal. To access your OmniLT
from an in-house phone: Pick up the receiver of any Touch-Tone phone in your house. Pause for just a moment (about a second),
then press the # key on the phone.

You will hear the voice read the menu, which tells you what commands are available over the telephone.

NOTE:

If your system is in High Security Mode, you must also enter your code following the # key -

High Security Mode

In UL Listed Installations, High Security Mode is enabled.

If the alarm system is tripped, the in-house phones will be disconnected when the OmniLT begins to dial out, to preclude a
burglar from jamming the line by shorting out an in-house phone. In this case, you will have to turn the system off at the console.

Remote Phones

You may call your system from any Touch Tone phone and "talk" to your OmniLT, exactly as if you were at home, except that
you must enter your code (Master or Manager) to gain access to the OmniLT.

To call your system from any touch tone phone, call your number. After 8 rings (or whatever you have Rings Before Answer set
to) your OmniLT will answer and "beep" - See

Set Up Dial

. Press the digits of your code on the phone. The first digit must be

pressed within 3 seconds of the beep. You will hear the menu.

If you hear three beeps after entering the code, you have entered the wrong code. Try again. If you make a mistake while
entering the code, press the # key and then enter the code again. You only have three tries to enter a valid code.

A successful remote access is logged in the event log as a Remote Phone Access, along with the time, date of its occurrence, and
the code number used.

There are a number of setup items that control what you can do from a remote phone when you or anyone else calls into your
home -
