Omega Vehicle Security 850i - Manual (Page 22)

To Change a Feature:
Step 5 After accessing the desired feature, within 10 seconds Press & Re-
lease either the transmitter/transceiver’s “Arm/Lock” button or the
“Disarm/Unlock” button.
• Pressing the “Arm/Lock” button turns the feature on; the siren will
chirp once and the Status Light will turn on.
• Pressing the “Disarm/Unlock” button turns the feature off; the
siren will chirp twice and the Status Light will turn off.
To Access and Change further Features:
Step 6 If there are more features to be programmed, within 10 seconds of
the previous action Press & Release the Valet Switch the same num-
ber of times as the next desired feature’s number.
• Again the siren will chirp and the Status Light will flash
as many times as the Valet Switch was pressed to indicate the new
feature number which is now accessed.
• Use the transmitter/transceiver as described in Step 5 to change the
newly accessed feature as desired.
• Repeat this Step 6 for each additional feature until all features are
programmed.
To Exit Programing Mode:
Step 7 Allow 10 seconds to pass without performing any programming
actions; or, turn the vehicles’s ignition in.
• The siren will sound briefly and the Status Light will go out to
confirm that the system is exiting Programing Mode.
Once the system is in Programming Mode, if at any time 10 seconds elapse
without programming activity, the system will automatically exit Programming
Mode. To prevent the system from prematurely exiting Programming Mode, the
feature can entered again by pressing the Valet Switch, or if a feature is accessed,
by pressing either of the transmitter or transceiver buttons. Features may be
selected and accessed in any order.
A convenient Feature Programming Checklist is on pages 46-47, which
greatly simplifies the feature programming process.
Important Note: The following pages explain each of the programmable
features in detail. Please note that programmable features may add or change the
“factory-set” operations as described in this guide. Therefore, it is important to
read the description of any feature before changing it from its factory-set default
setting. Some programmable features are for installation-related issues only.

• If desired, the system’s alarm function may be armed or disarmed as needed
during remote start operations (the system must be disarmed before entering
the vehicle).
Should the engine fail to start on the first attempt, the system will subsequently
make as many as three further attempts, if needed. Please note that each starting
attempt takes approximately 20 seconds for the system to check the vehicle’s
status, cycle the ignition and starter circuits, and then monitor vehicle status again
before the next attempt.
Certain conditions will prevent the engine from remotely starting, or if
remotely started already, will stop the running engine. These conditions are:
✓ A pressed brake pedal.
✓ The gear selector not being in the “park” or “neutral” position, or alternatively,
the parking brake not being set.
✓ An open hood.
An open door will not prevent the system from starting the engine; if the engine
has already been remotely started, opening a door will not stop the running
engine, unless the system is armed. Opening a door with the engine running by
remote control and the system armed will result in the system going into an alarm
condition, sounding the siren and flashing the lights, and stopping the engine.
If a start command is sent from the transmitter, but any of the previously listed
conditions are present, the system will not attempt to start the engine and will
instead have a short sounding of the siren to indicate a violated safety circuit.
The violated safety circuit conditions which can produce this indication are the
gear selector not in the “park” position, an open hood or trunk, or a pressed brake
pedal. If the system is in Starting Valet Mode, it simply will not respond to a
transmitter or transceiver command.
To drive the vehicle away after remote starting, disarm the system (if needed)
open the door to enter the vehicle, insert the key into the ignition switch and turn
the switch to “on” or “run” position (not “start”!). Then press the brake pedal or
remove the gear selector from “park”; now the engine is no longer running from
the system, but rather from the ignition key. Pressing the Valet Switch also turn
off the system’s running the engine, but without the violated safety circuit siren
sounding.

“Stick Shift” Remote Starting Setup Procedure: When the 850i 4 e
is installed into a manual transmission vehicle, programmable feature #30 must
be turned on. Then, whenever remote starting will be desired later the following
procedure must be followed before exiting the vehicle:
Step 1 With the engine running and foot on the brake, apply the parking brake,
put the transmission shifter in “neutral”, and remove your foot from the
brake.
