The OM-2N has one mechanical, battery independent setting -- "B".
At any other shutter speed, the camera won't fire w/o batteries,
whether in OFF or not.
When in OFF, the camera is actually in a limited AUTO mode, with
shutter speeds in the 1/30 to 1/1000 sec. range. This info. is
provided in the Q&A section of the OM-2N owner's manual.
Enjoy your OM-2N. It was my first SLR, and is still one of my
all-time favorites.
Cheers,
