A powerful feature of the OmniLT is the ability to program Buttons.  A Button (also known as macro) is a number on the keypad 
that is programmed to run a series of commands when it is pressed.  Buttons are used to program functions that are specific to 
your home and lifestyle.   
 
Using a button, you can activate several commands at once.  You can personalize 16 buttons with descriptive names.  Following 
are some examples of programmed Buttons: 
 
Leave for Work (Button 1): 

-
