III) Set LCD Contrast:
Press the Data Enter key when (3.) LCD Contrast is highlighted. The range is from 1 (lowest) to 5 (highest). The
default setting is 3. Use the UP and DOWN arrows to select preferred contrast, and press the Data Enter key to
save.
IV) Set Disarm Password:
Press the Data Enter key when (4.) Disarm Password is highlighted. There is a field where any 4 numbers can be
entered. It will only allow 4 numbers as a Password, and the numbers must be entered by using the numbered
keypad. The Esc key will delete numbers entered, or exit the menu. Once the desired 4 number Password is
entered, press the Data Enter key to save it. Make note of the Password, but also remember it can be viewed or
changed anytime from this same programming menu.
If the Password is forgotten and the system is in AWAY mode (armed), you must pull the power plug and
disconnect the battery to reset the THP401 to HOME mode where the Password can be viewed/changed.
V) Set Arming Delay:
Press the Data Enter key when (5.) Arming Delay is highlighted. Enter a number between 0 and 240 seconds.
Press the Data Enter key to save the setting.
The Arming Delay is associated with the time delay (in seconds) when arming the system, which is done by
activating AWAY mode by holding the # key. This setting should be set to a very short time in most applications,
such as 0, 5 or 10 seconds. However, if you are using security sensors, you may want to change this to a larger
number to allow you to arm the system and leave the building so that you don't activate any security sensors on
your way out.
VI) Set Sensor Delay:
Press the Data Enter key when (6.) Sensor Delay is highlighted. Enter a number between 0 and 240 seconds.
Press the Data Enter key to save the setting.
This is a time delay for the Water Sensor jack on the THP401, where you either connect a water sensor or other
security sensors. The delay is based on initially detecting an alert, and how long it takes after detection before the
system begins to make outgoing calls to the programmed telephone numbers. The alert must be a continuous
condition.
For example, the water sensor touches water, or any sensor creates a contact closure, as long as the contact
closure is continuous, the screen counts down in seconds and when it reaches zero the system begins placing
outgoing phone calls.
2. Telephone NO. (numbers): Press the Data Enter key when (2.) Telephone NO. is highlighted
You will see 4 phone number locations, numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4. Use the UP or DOWN arrows to highlight a location,
and press the Data Enter key on any location to enter it. Enter the desired telephone number by using the keypad.
The Esc key will delete any numbers. Press the Data Enter key to save the number. After saving a number, it will now
be visible on the main telephone number menu where all 4 locations are displayed. You can view, change, delete, or
add phone numbers at any time from this menu. They will never be deleted automatically as the memory of the
THP401 will always save this data even when there is no power to the system.
IMPORTANT: The most critical part of programming is to program the CORRECT telephone numbers in consideration
of the dialing patterns set by the phone company where the call is originating (the phone service the THP401 is using).
Landline (or any VoIP) phone services generally have specific rules and calling areas when making outgoing calls,
unlike cellular phones which rarely need a "1" in front of any outgoing call.
Before programming telephone numbers, it's important to be 100% certain if you need the 1 + area code, or just the
area code + 7 digits, or just the 7 digits, for the outgoing numbers to be called. Verify how the numbers must be called
before programming. If you have a telephone where the THP401 is being connected, simply call every number to be
programmed with the household telephone to confirm the calls connect. You would then program the numbers into the
THP401 EXACTLY how they would be dialed from a telephone at that location.
When programming cell phone numbers, the physical location of the cell phone does NOT change how the number
should be dialed from the house phone line (and programmed into the THP401). If you need to dial only 7 digits from
