Automatic "Last Door Arming" Of The System - Omega Excalibur AL-1000-EDP Operation Manual

Arming Bypass: Upon arming, if any system sensing circuit is inoperable,
that circuit only will automatically be bypassed. When an unsecured sensing circuit
is in a bypassed state, all other normally operating circuits will be protected. Should
the bypassed circuit become secured, it will automatically be reinstated for
protection 5 seconds later. When certain protection circuits are bypassed, such as
the hood/trunk and impact sensor, and the system is armed, it will indicate this by
chirping the siren three times and flashing the parking lights three times instead of
the normal arming indication of one chirp and one flash.
For example, should the trunk be open, such as when containing an oversized
object, you can still arm the system with the transmitter, and in this case the arming
indicator will be 3 siren chirps and 3 parking light flashes. Arming Bypass will only
operate when arming the system with the transmitter.
Sensor Bypass: When arming the Excalibur system with the transmitter,
you may conveniently and easily temporarily deactivate the impact sensor without
affecting the system's other sensing circuits. To deactivate the sensor, arm the
system by pressing the "arm/lock" button, then press and release the transmitter's
"II" button within three seconds. You will hear a second siren chirp confirming that
the security system has armed without the sensor protecting the vehicle. The next
time the system is armed normally with one "arm/lock" button press, the sensor will
again be part of your protection.

Automatic "Last Door Arming" of the System

The Excalibur can also be programmed to automatically arm itself, and in this
process, to lock or not lock the doors. When this feature is utilized, closing the
vehicle's last door will cause the siren to chirp once, the parking lights to flash once
and the Status Light to start rapidly flashing. Thirty seconds later the siren will chirp
again and the parking lights will flash again, the doors will lock (which is separately
programmable) and the Status Light will slow to a steady flash, confirming that the
security system is fully armed. If a point of entry is reopened before the single siren
chirp at 30 seconds, the Last Door Arming process stops, and will reset to start over
when the point of entry is again closed. All protected entries must be closed to
initiate the Last Door Arming sequence.
To temporarily prevent the system from automatically Last Door Arming, you
have these options: put the system into Valet Mode (page 14), leave the door open,
or, in most cases turning on the dome light may cause the system to detect that your
door is still open. Leaving the ignition key turned "on" is not recommended.
Last Door Arming offers a high level of security, since you do not have to
remember to arm the security system every time you leave the vehicle, and using it
may entitle you to an insurance discount (please check with your agent or carrier).

Feature #8 Open Door Bypass of Ignition Locking
Factory Default Setting On
Option: Off
This feature cancels the automatic locking or unlocking of the vehicle's doors
should one of the doors is open when the ignition switch is turned on or off.
Feature #9 Confirmation Chirps
Factory Default Setting On
( press "arm/lock" button to program

Chirps Excepting Valet Mode
Chirps in Valet Mode Only
This feature removes the system's 1 arming and 2 disarming confirmation chirps.
When this feature is used to remove these chirps, the system will still have 3 chirps
upon arming if a protected zone is violated, and still have 4 chirps upon disarming
if the system was previously activated. Using this feature to turn off the arm and
disarming chirps will also not affect the Prewarning operation, Unauthorized
Transmitter Alert (if used), nor will it affect the chirps used when programming.
The other two settings will have the confirmation chirps operate only when the
system is in Valet Mode, and not otherwise; or, the chirps will operate except when
the system is in Valet Mode.
Feature #10 Confirmation Chirp Volume
Factory Default Setting Medium High
press "II" button to program
(
Options:
Low (softest) ( press "arm/lock" button to program
press "disarm/unlock" button to program
Medium Low (
press "III" button to program
High (loudest) (
This feature allows the choice of four different volume levels of the system's con-
firmation chirps, and when programming it, the buttons can be repeatedly and
sequentially pressed, thus making it easy to hear and choose the setting with the
best chirp volume.
This feature operates regardless of how feature #15, "Steady Siren" or "Pulsed
Horn" is set. Feature #15 sets "Steady"; or "Pulsed" as three different timings, for
the activated alarm period output. This feature, #10, affects only the confirmation
chirps.
