I'm installing an Omni II and I've noticed a few quirks. Wondering if anyone can share similar experiences and what you did, if anything, to correct them:
Thanks!
- I have the perimeter zones set to chime when opened. I have three keypads. They do not all chime concurrently. They will often chime consecutively about a half second or more in between each pad. Further, the time in between never seems to be the same. Consequently, every time the front door is opened I get three beeps (one from each keypad at different time intervals.) The multiple chiming is not passing the "WAF" and I'm getting grief about it every day. :-( The previously installed Caddx system beeped all the keypads at exactly the same time. Thus sounding like a single loud beep.
- Sending beeps to the keypads via the automation interface (either individually or ALL) produces a similar effect. They don't chime concurrently. Also, beeping the pads via Automation sometimes takes 5 seconds or more before the pad actually beeps.
- I have the voice interface board installed. When I use the console keypad to record a message (key 8, then 2 for record) the paging trigger (connected to a Russound system) on the board activates. Why does recording a message enable the paging trigger?? I don't want the message I'm recording broadcast all over the house!
- When I turn ON a UPB switch (Pulseworx or HAI) via Automation commands the light "snaps" to ON rather than ramping up. However, if I use the "Light level to 100%" then the switch ramps up according to the ramp rate set in the switch. Conversely, OFF snaps the light off rather than ramping it down. I guess this is normal?
- I haven't searched yet but is there a way to use an answering machine AND the voice command menu at the same time with this panel? If so any tips would be welcomed.
Thanks!
