Omnitrix

The **Omnimatrix**, also known as the **Omnitrix**, is a watch-like device that attached to Max's wrist.

## Appearance

The Omnitrix looks like a very big wristwatch, primarily black and grey in color, with a brown dial in the middle (like a watch face) which has a hourglass shape. When Max selects his aliens, it shows the alien's silhouette.

The white chords and dial were silver and green. The four buttons on the faceplate were replaced with grey squares. There was an additional band of dark grey running around the center of the Omnitrix, the activation button was on this strip.

## Modes

* Active Mode
* Recharge Mode
* Scan Mode
* Life-Form Lock
* Master Control

Active Mode is the Omnitrix's default mode - the Omnitrix can be used and nothing is wrong. Transformations last for an average of a hour. However, the user can revert back to human anytime they want. Quickchange transformations will reduce the usage time.

Recharge Mode's main purpose is to keep the Omnitrix from damaging the user by staying transformed for too long. It's deactivated automatically, once the Omnitrix is recharged. When the user is in alien form and the Omnitrix is about to time out, the symbol will beep and flash dark red for a few seconds before covering its user in red light. If the user reverts by their own volition, they will revert straight away in a flash of red light instead. This mode is currently deactivated as Master Control is active.

Scans DNA by being near the alien it detects.

Allows the user to stay transformed for an extended period of time without a time-out. It is dangerous to use often.

The user can transform with a simple thought, neglecting the use of the dial. The limiter is also disabled, allowing the user to stay transformed indefinitely.
## Features

### General

* The Omnitrix mainly allowed for the user to transform into a numerous variety of alien life-forms that are each with their own unique powers and abilities (along with their weaknesses) and in a selection of alien DNA that is in groups of 10.
* The Omnitrix acted as a wireless receiver for the Codon Stream.
	+ By accessing the database, the Omnitrix used special Omni-Energy to merge its wearer's DNA with the DNA samples it held to create transformations.Template:Refn Alien DNA is "injected" into the user, meaning they retain the wielder's personality, memories, and consciousness.Template:Refn Because of this, most of the aliens are not full-blown aliens, with the exceptions of Ectonurite and Conductoid DNA.Template:Refn The Omnitrix could not transform the user into another of its own species.
* In order for the user to change the size, the matter was created from energy or reconstituted to energy as needed.
* The Omnitrix had a quick change feature.
	+ The user could change back by turning the second ring on the dial to the 3 o'clock position. When Ben appeared to be changing mentally, it was just a coincidence. He was out of time and changing anyway.Template:Refn
	+ Manually touching the Omnitrix symbol not only allows the user to immediately transform back to normal but can also be used to change forms while already transformed.
* The Omnitrix could alter its size to fit the user's wrist.
* When transformed, the Omnitrix protected the user from negative effects, including:
	+ Being possessed by an Ectonurite.
	+ Exposure to the dangerous effects of Corrodium.
	+ Being transformed by Dr. Animo's mutant ray.
* The Omnitrix had a built-in energy feedback blast to defend against anyone trying to force it off of its owner.Template:Refn
* Once placed on the wearer, the Omnitrix could not be removed by normal physical means.
* The Omnitrix could show a database image of all aliens unlocked.
* The Omnitrix is able to repair genetic damage.
* The Omnitrix could genetically manipulate DNA or reprogram a species' DNA (like fuse DNA from different species of aliens).
* The Omnitrix changed the aliens' eye color to match the user's eye color, a feature that can be turned off.
* The Omnitrix could be synchronized with another Omnitrix, even without the user's intent.
* The Omnitrix was waterproof.Template:Refn
* The Omnitrix could replace one of its DNA samples with someone else from the same species.Template:Refn
* The recalibrated Omnitrix granted the user full understanding of the aliens' powers upon transforming into them.Template:Refn
* The Omnitrix has the ability to redirect scans from inorganic aliens if the power is boosted.
* The Omnitrix can create a alien species.
* The Omnitrix can change the user's gender to adapt to another species.
	+ However, this only applies if there's only one gender of that species. For example, if Max were to scan Starfire, the Tamaranean form would still be male, even though the DNA donor was female.

### Extensions

* The Omnitrix had AI (Artificial Intelligence).
* The Omnitrix functioned as a GPS.
* The Omnitrix could create a hologram map, which is similar to the one in Plumber Badges.
* The Omnitrix had a 2-way communication system with Plumber Badges.
* The Omnitrix had a built-in Universal Translator and could also translate other Earth languages.Template:Refn
* The Omnitrix could teleport the user through Azmuth's teleportation channel.
* The Omnitrix had a homing beacon that could guide the user to Xenon if it was ever in range.

### Color Coding

* The Omnitrix could display ten colors, each meaning something different:
	+ Red: Active Mode
	+ Dark Red: Recharge Mode
	+ Green: Capture Mode
	+ Blue: Recalibration Mode
	+ Purple: Controlled or risk of temporal threat
	+ Orange: Self Destruct Mode (original Omnitrix form)
	+ Grey: Inactive Mode
	+ Black: Stop Mode
	+ Pink: Under spell effect

### Display Modes

* The Omnitrix displays the aliens as black silhouettes.

### Clothing

* Prior to its recalibration, the Omnitrix automatically used the molecules of its wearer's clothes to create coverings for the aliens.Template:Refn This function was lost when the the Omnitrix recalibrated; instead, nanomachines broke its wearer's clothes down and stored them until the transformation ended.Template:Refn

### Allocation

The Omnitrix generally enters on the chest for most transformations however there are some expectations to this. Such as Eye Guy, Snare-oh and Wildvine having it on the belt, Rath, Frankenstrike and others having it on the left pectoral. Stinkfly and Gravattack having it on their foreheads. Or Gutrot having it on his face.
