* An optional doorlock interface must be installed
While the system is in the Armed state:
• The Status Indicator Light will be flashing slowly Red to confirm that the sys-
tem is armed, and also serve as a visual deterrent.
• The starter interrupt circuit is engaged.
• Protected zones are being monitored for intrusion attempts.
Should an activation into the alarm condition occur:
• The changing-tone electronic siren will loudly sound.
• The parking and interior lights will flash.
• The doors will lock,* regardless of their locked or unlocked status. This feature
is unique- if the system detects that a door is opened, it waits until the door is
closed before relocking it, denying the thief reentry.
An activated alarm condition has a duration of 60 seconds (30 is optional) unless
the system is disarmed using the transmitter or the Valet Switch. If all protected
zones are secure at the end of the alarm condition, the system will stop and rearm
automatically, ready to detect another entry attempt. If a protected zone is still
violated at the end of the alarm condition, the system will reactivate for up to two
additional alarm cycles. After the third alarm cycle the system will automatically
rearm and bypass the open zone until that zone returns to a normal “non-violated”
state.
• Once the system resets after it has been activated, upon disarming the audible
and visual confirmation will change from the normal two siren chirps and two
light flashes to four chirps and flashes to indicate that the system was activated.
This is the “Activation Alert”, which is explained on page 8.
• Should the system become activated, the Status Indicator Light will change to
flashing a “violated zone” code; see pages 21-22.
SYSTEM ARMED & ACTIVATED
• Last Door Arming is separate from, and does not effect the operation of arming
by using the transmitter.
• All protected points must be closed or otherwise in a non-violated state for the
Last Door Arming sequence to start. Unlike active arming from the transmit-
ter, the system can not bypass an open or detected zone and arm itself.
To temporarily prevent the system from arming itself:
• Place the system into Alarm Valet Mode using the Valet Switch (page 19-20).
• Leave a vehicle door open. Or, in most cases turning on the interior light will
be detected by the system as an open door, preventing it from arming itself.
• Although the system will not Last Door Arm while the ignition is on, leaving
the ignition key turned on without the engine running is not recommended.

button to configure the system for Stick Shift Remote Starting operation (the siren
will chirp once) or the "Disarm/Unlock" button to turn this operation off (the siren
will chirp twice).
#36 Turbo Timer:
Default Off
This feature, described on page 18, when turned on configures the MAX-E to
automatically keep the engine running for 2 minutes after it is turned off. This
operation is designed specifically for vehicles having turbocharged engines (the
user may temporarily bypass the feature if desired).
Programming Turbo Timer:
The operation of this feature is dependent upon
the correct connection of the safety wire to the vehicle’s parking brake; please refer
to the “Installation Manual” for proper connection of this wire. To program the
feature, follow Steps 1 to 4 on page 25; at Step 4 the Valet Switch will be pressed
and released thirty six times. The system’s response will be thirty six siren chirps,
and the Status Light flashing thirty six times, pausing, then repeating. Within 10
seconds, press and release the transmitter’s "Arm/Lock" button to turn on the Turbo
Timer feature (the siren will chirp once) or the "Disarm/Unlock" button to turn it
off (the siren will chirp twice).
Your Omega MAX-E system is capable of being operated by as many as four
controllers; these can be any combination of standard “1-way” transmitters or
optional Omega Echo transceivers (described in following pages). Regardless of
which, the transmitter or transceiver must be encoded, or programmed, to the
system in order to operate it (excepting the originals, which were programmed at
the factory). This programming procedure is identical for a transmitter or Echo
transceiver. To program additional or replacement transmitters or transceivers,
follow this procedure:
Have all of the transmitters or transceivers at hand (when one is programmed, all
others are erased).
Step 1 Turn the vehicle’s ignition “on”.
Step 2 Within 5 seconds of turning "on" the ignition, press the Valet Switch 5
times. The siren will chirp once, confirming that the system is ready to
learn a transmitter.
Step 3 Within 10 seconds press and release the “Arm/Lock” button (the “locked
padlock” graphic). The siren will chirp once, confirming that the system
learned the transmitter.
