Omni Pager Receiver
Model – OP1097-2
General
The new Silent Call Omni Pager
M
, receiver is a body worn portable alerting device with pulsed output alerts. It is used in conjunction
with any Silent Call transmitter such as the telephone, doorbell, smoke detector and/or sound monitor. When this receiver detects a
signal from a Silent Call transmitter, it activates its vibrator with a predetermined output pulse(s) for each type of signal .
Operation
Switch the Omni Pager receiver on by moving the power switch to the ON position.
The unit will then turn on and the vibrator
will pulse continuous short pulses (FIRE) , signaling the last alarm that was received as this is the factory default test used.
These are a couple of the distinguishing features of the new revised Omni Pager. Another is the pushbutton used for programming that
replaced the dip switch. Each time the Omni Pager receives a signal from a Silent Call transmitter with a matching code; the Omni
Pager receiver will vibrate a particular type pulse. The Vibrator will remain on until the distinguishing pulse pattern has been
completed. Switching the On / Off switch from off to on activates the recall function which will turn on the vibrator pulses of the last
transmitter alert the receiver received. The Omni Pager receiver battery may be tested by moving the power switch momentarily to the
TEST position.
The Omni Pager receiver is supplied with a rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride 9V battery. In normal operation, the unit will function
for approximately two to three days per charge. However, for the most reliable operation, recharge the battery each night when you
go to bed. Also, do not leave the unit on when you are not using it as the battery can be damaged by running it completely down. Not
all “9V” rechargeable batteries are the same, and we recommend you purchase replacement batteries from Silent Call. Although it is
not recommended, the Omni Pager receiver may be operated with a standard alkaline battery. However, if you use an alkaline battery
YOU MUST NEVER ATTEMPT TO RECHARGE THE BATTERY. Doing so will cause the battery to burst and destroy the Omni
Pager circuitry, voiding the warranty.
Vibrator Pulse Outputs
SOUND = three short pulses
PHONE = one long pulse
DOOR = two short pulse
WEATHER = one short and one long pulse
FIRE = continuous short pulse
CO = three short pulses and one long pulse
Programming
NOTE:
Your Omni Pager receiver and all transmitters leave the factory already programmed for the factory default code. The Omni
Pager does NOT need to be programmed unless you have changed the code on your transmitters.
The Silent Call alerting system is digitally coded. Each Silent Call transmitter contains a nine position code switch. Positions 1
through 5 on the transmitter set the address.
LEAVE POSITIONS 6, 7, 8, AND 9 AS IS.
.
Position 6 through 9 set the type of alert
function and does not require programming.
The Omni Pager receiver can be set to respond to
one
or more
different transmitter
codes. All Silent Call transmitters leave the factory set to the default code of 1=off, 2=off, 3=off, 4=on, 5=on. This code does not
need to be changed unless your system is within 100-200 feet of another Silent Call system. In that case, simply set all transmitters to
a different code (any combination of on and off positions
except
all on or all off), erase the code memory in the Omni Pager, and then
reprogram the Omni Pager receiver as follows:
To erase all programmed codes:
1.
Turn the Omni Pager off.
2.
Open the access battery door on the back of the Omni Pager and locate the PROGRAM button.
