smoke detectors for omni pro 2

When i built my home i ran  the smoke alarm wires from the device to the omni panel, not realizing  needed to be daisy chained.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. The wire I used has 4 wires in them and its a multi level house so access is not good.
 
If you install 2-wire smoke detectors, you can use the 4-wire cable to form the daisy chain.  Just be sure to use 2-wire smokes that are compatible with the OP2.
 
Thanks for the help and the diagram.
I do have a couple of other questions on this,
Where is the 2 wire smoke zone on a omni pro 2?
And is it possible to use smokes with sounders, I would like to run 2 zones, 6 smokes on one and 4 on the other.
I am leaning toward the system sensor I3 with sounder and form c relay.
If one smoke detects trouble how do  the rest know when wired on your diagram?

You can either daisy chain what you have today or create individual smoke zones.  You didn't do anything wrong here.
 
It is up to you what it is you want to do.  The wiring in place you installed will work either way.  I did individual 4-wire smoke zones here. 
 
Read the diagrams as it is a bit different with the OPII panel but straight forward.
 
 
Per HAI documentation 2-Wire smoke detectors can only be connected to OPII panel zones 1-4.
 
It is in the installation manual and I see it on the HAI sticker inside of my OPII can.
 
IE:
 
Zones 1-16 are configurable for buglary, fire, temperature or aux.
2-Wire somke (spelling error - smoke) detectors may only be connected to zones 1-4.
