Introduction To The System - Omega Excalibur AL-1000-EDP Operation Manual

Introduction to the System

Congratulations for your choice of a new Excalibur vehicle security and
convenience system by Omega Research and Development. You will find that your
new system will give you years of trouble-free convenience and protection. To
enjoy the most from your new system, please take a few moments to learn about the
principal user components, and the basic operation of the system. These subjects
are found in next several pages, followed by more detailed specifics of complete
operations and features.
The
The Transmitter operates the system. It has four buttons, and a small green
light between the two large buttons, which illuminates whenever a button is pressed
to transmit a command.
"arm/lock"
button
"II" button
"arm/lock"
• Pressing and releasing the "arm/lock" button arms the security system and
locks the doors.
• Pressing and holding this button for three seconds will first arm, and then
activate the Panic feature, locking the doors.
"disarm/unlock"
• Pressing and releasing the "disarm/unlock" button disarms the system and
unlocks the doors unless the alarm is triggered, in which case it will disarm the
activated alarm, but not unlock the doors unless the button is pressed again.
• Pressing and holding this button for three seconds will first disarm, and then
activate the Panic feature, unlocking the doors.
• The unlock operation may be optionally configured during the system's
installation so that pressing this button once disarms the system and unlocks
only the driver's door, and pressing a second time unlocks all of the doors.
• Pressing the "arm/lock" and "disarm/unlock" buttons together activates the
3rd channel output, which can be used to operate optional functions or devices.

The final 3 Programmable Features are for the installer's use.
These features are described to explain their function; as these
features are dependent upon the installation configuration within the
vehicle, they should not be changed except by the original dealer or
qualified installer.
Feature #22 Doorlocking Functions
Factory Default Setting .8 Second Lock & Unlock Output

Options:
3 Second Lock & Unlock Output
Double Pulse Unlock Output
Total Closure Lock Output
This single feature gives the installer several needed options, to match the
security system's doorlocking outputs to suite different vehicle requirements.
• The first setting (programmed by the "arm/lock" button) has the system
produce both the lock and unlock outputs as .8 second in duration. This is the
most common form of output needed, which interfaces most vehicles.
• The second setting (programmed by the "disarm/unlock" button) changes
the lock and unlock outputs to be a longer 3 second pulse output. This is for
certain vehicles which require a longer output pulse, typically cars having
pneumatic doorlocking systems, although the longer setting is also more
suitable in some newer-model vehicles.
• Some newer vehicles require a double pulse output to remotely unlock the
doors and/or to disarm a factory-equipped security system, which is what the
Double Pulse Unlock setting provides (it is programmed by the "II" button ).
• The Total Closure Lock Output (programmed by the "III" button) may be used
with vehicles which are originally equipped with the total-closure feature.
Typically, a total closure feature is when locking the vehicle's doors if the key
in the door is held to "lock" for a period of time the vehicle will close all
windows and the sunroof, in addition to locking the doors.
Note: When this feature is turned on, during the 28 second period after arm-
ing the system, the lock output can be stopped on demand by the user by
pressing the "arm/lock" OR the "disarm/unlock" button. Only the output
itself will stop- pressing either button again will normally operate the sys-
tem, and at any time after the 28 second lock output period ends.
The following two features, when they are set for factory alarm "arm" or "dis-
arm" output operation, will follow the setting of this feature.
