The Industry's #1 Resource


Douglasville, Georgia – May 31th, 2017 – Omega Research & Development Technologies, Inc. is now shipping the BRACKET-COMP-1-KIT & BRACKET-COMP-2-KIT. When installing a Train Horn & Air-Tank/Compressor set, mounting these large components can be a challenge, so Omega has developed two brackets to help out.

Both of these brackets are made of 100 percent pure 3/8 think aluminum, so they are tough, but very lightweight, and are power coated Black to match the vehicle undercarriage. They are pre-drilled to receive our Omega Air-Tank/Compressor units, and include the necessary hardware to mount the compressor on the bracket. An access hole on the bracket bottom allows access to the Air-Tank's drain cock for easy maintenance. 

The BRACKET-COMP-1-KIT is designed to carry a fully assembled AC-1.5, AC-2.0, or AC-200PSIAir-Tank/Compressor unit.

The BRACKET-COMP-2-KIT is designed to carry a "separated" AC-1.5.  (By "separated" we mean that you separate the compressor motor from the Air-Tank, so you can install with a much lower profile). This kit includes an braided air-hose extension, and necessary fittings.

Douglasville, Georgia – September 12th, 2019 – Omega's product development team announces Enhancements to the 70-Series Excalibur Remote Start line. Firmware version V1.6 is already available on OmegaWebLInk.com.

The 70-Series is already Omega’s most advanced Remote-Start line ever. Omega takes a populist stance by including high end & high-leverage features across the entire line, including the “entry” price-point systems. No other maker packs the entire product line with the latest tech. Most other brands eliminate flexibility by stripping “entry level” systems and force you to reinstall when customers want to upgrade to mid-level or high-level capabilities.

All Omega “Excalibur” 70-Series units are updateable. Easily flash the main unit’s firmware by using our OL-LOADER USB cable and OmegaWeblink.com. Your inventory will never be obsolete. Stop waiting until the next shipment for bug fixes or vehicle compatibility enhancements.

Enhancements include:

  • The main unit’s Firmware version is now indicated by the LED upon power up.
  • Horn output (User Feature #5) now defaulted to Human Panic mode for guaranteed attention when the alarm is triggered. Stand out from the rest.
  • Vehicle Learn now has improved timing windows to make programming on Push-To-Start Vehicles a breeze.
  • New Sensor Test Mode allows installers to quickly dial in any added sensors and test all trigger zones without repeated arming & disarming. Unique chirps are given for each zone. It also allows for quick diagnosing of false triggering and stuck zones.

70-Series highlights:

All Omega 70-Series models include a Patented Vehicle Learn procedure that automatically adapts to the vehicle’s unique properties. It will identify all connected IGNITION, ACCESSORY, & START circuits and reconfigure its outputs to match the vehicle. It will poll any accessories or bypass modules connected to the data ports & automatically switch to the matching protocol. It will also identify & utilize the best available engine detection method (data tach, analog tach wire, or progressive voltage sensing) & automatically sample idle rpm (when needed). Click here or visit our YouTube channel to watch a video on how simple Vehicle Learn really is.

With 70-Series, Omega is first in adding a built-in Accelerometer to the antenna (Patented). All “3D” models are equipped with a 3D accelerometer BUILT into the window mount antenna for extra safety when manual transmission starting. If during the remote start attempt the accelerometer senses any movement, it will abort the attempt. Having the 3D accelerometer in the window mounted antenna is far superior to having it as a plug-in sensor due to its isolated & rigid install location. It won’t be susceptible to normal engine vibration that can cause a false positive, shutting down your remote start attempt. This is a major refinement in the user experience.

All 70-Series models come standard with "Low-Temperature" start, “High-Temperature” start & "Low-Battery Voltage" start, even our "entry level units". Both high and low temp auto start have selectable thresholds for full customization.

All 70-Series Starters have Two Independent Self-Learning Dataports, so you never need to hardware your telematics devices. Both support iDatalink & DBI protocols, so you can mix & match the modules and telematics devices you’re plugging in. Systems with a "B" in the part number also feature a BLADE slot for use with our BLADE interface cartridges (OL-BLADE-AL64 or OL-BLADE-TB) offering the cleanest install possible.

All 70-Series Starters are flashable using a PC and the OmegaWebLInk.com site. This means that the installer can update the remote start unit’s firmware, and set the programmable features. This is insurance against inventory obsolescence. 

All  70-Series Starters running V1.5 or higher are Plug & Play compatible with 3rd party telematics platforms such as “Linkr”, “My Car” & “DRONE”. You can put Excalibur Remote Start units at the core of every install and still offer the exact desired customer experience.

Excalibur 70-Series features select "1+1 button" models:  Industry wide, the 1-Button remote control is attractive to users who desire a smaller remote, and fewer unused buttons. As this 1-Button segment grows, but more commands are added to the 1-Button remote control, users have to remember an array of button press combinations to activate different functions. The 1+1 button remote is ideal for pickup truck installations and eliminates functional confusion of 1-button keyless entry/start systems.

For example, traditional 1-button remotes require press and release for START, press & hold for Lock/Unlock, or press 2 times within 3 seconds for????. Also, multiple button presses and Press & Hold combinations can reduce the remote’s transmitting range.  The 1+1 remote solves this by offering the traditional large START button, and also a smaller dedicated Lock/Unlock button without increasing the size of the traditional 1-Button remote. It maximizes transmitting range and offers an intuitive and user friendly experience.

All 70-Series Omega remote start units have a built-in Security Suite (defaulted OFF in all “RS” models). It can be enabled with no additional labor if the interface module you use provides door/hood/trunk trigger status. It can also be layered for more protection by adding the AU-84TDPB “data” Shock sensor. Actually, whenever a sensor is connected to any “RS” model, the alarm functions will be automatically enabled. The AU-84TDPB has analog door status inputs in case the interface module used does not provide door status for “RS” models without door trigger inputs. Thus every Omega 70-Series starter can be turned into an Alarm/Remote Start COMBO unit.

"3D" units are 2-way Ready, that means that all 1-Way "3D" units come with a 2-way antenna! So to upsell the sale, just learn in a compatible 2-way controller like our 1511-03 enhanced 2-way LED hand held controller.

Omega's 70-Series is the most advance Remote Start in the industry, bar none. It’s as installer friendly and user friendly as any system can get with the flexibility to meet any desire. And since every unit is flashable, you can keep your unit current with the latest updates, insuring you are utilizing the latest tech available.

DOUGLASVILLE, GEORGIA – AUGUST 17, 2016 - Omega's tech support team will be presenting the 70-Series product line at it’s first ever KnowledgeFest Dealer training session.  The 70-Series is Omega’s most advanced Remote-Start line ever.

Packed with very high-end features, but priced at a tremendous value, Omega focused on refining the installer experience by adding a very comprehensive vehicle learn routine, and on the user experience by adding a BUILT-IN 3D accelerometer for manual transmission starting without the complicated exit routine, as well as Cold-Temperature start at the "entry units".

All "3D" units are 2-way Ready, so to upsell a sale, just learn in a compatible 2-way controller. Also, every single remote starter has a built in Alarm Suite, again offering upsell potential with little or no additional install. With Omega, every Starter is a COMBO.

Omega will also be introducing the Linkr Mobile Control platform: In our opinion, the most versatile Smartphone hardware/APP platform available. Built as a Global platform, it supports 6 languages, and can be installed stand-alone, or plugged into an Omega host unit via the data port. All 3 analog outputs can be configured to your needs, even if you’re using a data connection. This doubles the simultaneous functionality of other units.

Very importantly, EVERY service plan gives the user full functionality!!! This includes GPS tracking, 2 Geo-Fences, Speed alerts, & a Security Fence. Other included features are a Built-In battery backup,

Multiple "Skin" options, personal Avatar selection from your camera-roll, the ability to control dozens of devices from the same APP, a full featured "High Risk" PANIC routine that sends alerts and a bread crumb trail to 5 pre-set recipients, and more. One can even monitor their home or business alarm panel with Linkr.

Douglasville, Georgia – May 24th, 2017 – Omega Research & Development Technologies, Inc. is now shipping the Virtual Salesman retail kiosk, for counter top and wall-mount display.

The centerpiece of the OmegaDealer.com portal is an interactive, customizable system designer called Virtual Salesman. It features a quoting engine which is pre-loaded with information on Omega’s entire product line. During set up, the dealer can select which Omega products they carry, set their own pricing & labor rates, select which features are included or which are paid-for upgrades, offer all compatible accessory upgrades, and more.

Virtual Salesman can then be used to easily gather important customer information, such as: vehicle year, make, & model, what type of system they are shopping for (security, remote start, combos, OEM upgrade, etc.), as well as what particular features are important to them. Virtual Salesman then takes that information, and, using the dealer’s selected product line, tailors the system for each customer. Virtual Salesman will even suggest available upgrades and accessories that fit the install. Since Virtual Salesman will only present the Omega products that the dealer stocks, there’s a unique Virtual Salesman created for each dealer.

Product Development Manager and designer of Virtual Salesman, Mike Thompson, says, “Our dealer base is as diverse as our product line and we realize how challenging it can be to understand all the potentials for every customer and vehicle. Virtual Salesman ensures that our dealers will maximize their dollars per sale, increase their close ratio, and do it with pin-point accuracy. Virtual Salesman is powered by the OmegaLink vehicle database and automatically matches interface modules and data start systems to the selected vehicle.”

“The system can be setup in minutes, and if dealers really want to bring Virtual Salesman to life, it offers custom vehicle profiles that allow them to limit which systems are offered per vehicle, choose their preferred interface, and even adjust the total labor for perfect estimates every time. Once customers design their system, Virtual Salesman will email the quote to the customer & dealer with contact info, itemized list of all parts, upgrades, and accessories for easy follow-up and scheduling."

Dealers can also use any web-enabled device (like all store computers, tablets, or custom displays) to serve up their Virtual Salesman. Check out how powerful Virtual Salesman can be by watching the overview video on the www.OmegaDealer.com home page.
