Other Transmitter Operations
The 2nd channel output, which is operated by pressing and holding
the transmitter
“
||” bu
t
ton for 1 second, is designed specifically to operate
your vehicle’s electric power trunk release. Your vehicle will respond by
releasing the trunk lid or rear hatch, chirping the siren twice, turning on your
parking and interior lights for 30 seconds, unlocking the doors, and
disarming the system if it was armed. The 2nd channel output will not
operate when the ignition switch is "on" unless the vehicle's door is open.
If desired, the security system can be programmed to remain armed when
this feature is used, and connection of the 2nd channel may require extra
parts or installation.
To Silently Arm or Disarm the alarm, press and release the
“
||” bu
t
ton
twice. The siren’s confirmation chirps will not occur, and this operation
simply reverses, or “toggles” the armed and disarmed status that the
system.
The sensor may be temporarily bypassed. When arming the alarm
with the transmitter, within 3 seconds after the arming chirp press the
“
||”
bu
t
ton. The system will respond with another single chirp, confirming that
the sensor is bypassed.
The AL-1610-EDP also has a 3rd channel output which is similar to
the 2nd channel, but it does have some special operational design
differences. To operate it, press and hold the transmitter
“
OPTION
”
and
red “|||” buttons together for 1 second. Or, a programmable feature allows
the pressing of the “|||” button only to operate this output.
The differences are that 3rd channel output will operate regardless of
the ignition switch being "on" or "off", and there is no audible or visual
confirmation. Connection of the 3rd channel will vary, depending upon the
chosen application, and may require extra parts or installation.
There are also optional 4th channel and 5th channel outputs, which
are available if more remote control functions are desired. These outputs
can be repurposed from two other system outputs, the factory arm and
disarm outputs, by an Installer Programmable Feature #9 (see page 42).
When these outputs are programmed to operate, pressing the transmitter
“arm/lock” and “||” buttons together will activate the 4th channel output.
Pressing the “disarm/unlock” and red “|||” buttons will activate the 5th
channel. Or, if desired, the transmitter “|||” button can be programmed by
User Programming Feature #21 (page 36) to operate any of these channels.

To a large extent the Omega AL-1610-EDP’s versatility is due to an
incredible array of programmable features- 33 main-system programmable
features which offer almost 100 choices of operational and interfacing
options.
How to Program Features
To Enter Programing Mode and Change Features:
Page - 27
For easier management of the programmable features, they are
divided into two separate accessibility levels. Features which allow the
user to customize the system’s operation according to their own choice are
in one group, and the features which are installation related, or intended
for the installer’s use are in a second group. The AL-1610-EDP system
has 23
User Programmable Features
, and there are 10
Installer
Programmable Features
.
The vehicle ignition key and the Valet Switch are used to enter the
Programming Mode, then the transmitter or optional controller is used to
change features. Once the system is in Programming Mode, a 10 second
period without programming activity will cause the system to automatically
exit Programming Mode. Features can be selected in any order as desired.
The same basic “
Features Programming Mode
” is the means for changing
any of the features; the mode itself can be accessed as either the User level,
or the Installer level.
•The siren will chirp then sound briefly and the Status Light will
flash to confirm that the system is entering Programing Mode.
•In the case of accessing the Installer Mode, the siren chirp then
brief sounding will be heard at the fifth valet press, and then
again at the tenth valet switch press.
•The Status Light shows red color for User Programming, and
Green color for Installer programming.
•In either Programming Mode, if 10 seconds of no programming
activity occurs, the system will exit Programming Mode. Pro-
gramming activity is the pressing of the Valet Switch or press-
ing a transmitter button once a feature is accessed.
