- How the monitoring system works when it detects an alarm condition
- What to do when the monitoring system calls someone at a programmed telephone number
- A voice message will advise the type of alarm condition and instruct the person answering to enter a response code by pressing and holding the “#” key to “Acknowledge” the alarm, or pressing the “*” key followed by the “0” key to “Disable” the monitoring system. The sequence of the message is as follows:
- What happens when the call is “Acknowledged” by pressing and holding the “#” key?
- The monitoring system will sound a 3-second continuous tone at which time the "#" key can be released. The monitoring system will then disconnect and return to a monitoring mode. It will wait one hour and, if the alarm condition is still present, will repeat the outgoing call sequence. This routine of calling at 1-hour intervals will continue until the alarm condition no longer exists OR the monitoring system is “Disabled” by pressing the “*” key followed by the “0” key in sequence to turn the monitoring system off (see following paragraph). Once the alarm condition no longer exists, the monitoring system will return to the monitoring mode and will make no further calls until a new alarm condition occurs.
- If a different alarm condition is detected during any of the one hour increments that the monitoring system is waiting to make the next call, the monitoring system will then wait only 5 minutes before beginning a new outgoing call sequence to indicate that there are multiple alarm conditions.
- What happens when the monitoring system is “Disabled” by pressing the “*” key followed by the “0” key in response to a call?
- The monitoring system will sound a 3-second continuous tone at the called phone and then disconnect and “Disable” itself. NO FURTHER MONITORING OF ALARM CONDITIONS WILL OCCUR, AND NO FURTHER OUTGOING CALLS WILL BE MADE TO INDICATE AN ALARM CONDITION UNTIL THE MONITORING SYSTEM IS RESET AT THE CONTROL PANEL.
- IMPORTANT – In order to have the monitoring system return to normal so that it can monitor alarm conditions and make outgoing calls, someone will have to manually turn the ON / OFF switch on the monitoring system control panel first to OFF and then back to ON. This should be done at the same time you, or someone you notify, visits the premises to correct the problem.
- What to do if you are at the monitored premises?
- The monitoring system will also alert you to an alarm condition when the premises are occupied but when you might not otherwise be aware, such as during the night. Upon detecting a single or multiple alarm condition, the control panel will emit a 5-second continuous tone. This will be followed by a 5-second tone at 5-minute intervals thereafter.

Programming the Outgoing “Call-To” Telephone Numbers
Now that you have installed your monitoring system, you are ready to
program the outgoing telephone numbers to be called during an
alarm condition—such as your cell phone, your cabin phone, your
primary residence phone or a neighbor’s phone. Before you begin
the simple step-by-step programming procedure below, check and
confirm that:
• The ON / OFF switch on the control panel is in the ON position.
• The monitoring system control panel is properly connected to the
wall adapter and phone lines, and that the Water Sensor is
properly connected for Model THP201 only.
• If the monitoring system has been idle for a long period, install a
fresh 9V alkaline battery. The installed battery will discharge
when the monitoring system has no AC power even when the
monitoring system is turned off.
To program the first outgoing telephone number:
1. Press and hold the “1” key on the keypad for 10 seconds until
the “system armed” green light blinks two times and then stays
off.
2. Release the “1” key. Using the keypad, enter the first outgoing telephone number (maximum of 12 digits).
3. Press and hold the “#” key for 10 seconds until the green light blinks twice and then stays lit.
4. The green light should stay lit to indicate the number was properly programmed and retained in memory. If not,
repeat steps 1 through 3.
Note: Programming over a number already in memory will replace the number in memory.
Important! Do not program emergency response phone numbers (local police or fire
departments, “911”, etc.) into the monitoring system. Do not program phone numbers to
a location where there is no one to answer the phone, or where the person answering has
not been instructed on how to respond to the alarm call.
Important! This monitoring system will not accept 9-pause outgoing numbers.
To program the second and third outgoing telephone numbers:
Repeat steps 1 through 4 above except press the “2” key to designate the second outgoing number, and the “3” key to
designate the third outgoing number.
Outgoing Number Calling Sequence
When an alarm condition is first detected, the monitoring system will call the first programmed outgoing telephone number
that it locates. It will always scan in sequence “call-to” location 1, location 2, and location 3. If a telephone number is not in
location 1, but does exist in location 2, then the location 2 programmed telephone number will be the first telephone
number the monitoring system will call with the alarm message. It is not necessary to program all three telephone numbers
for the monitoring system to work properly.
Important! This monitoring system cannot call out on an Internet phone line during a
power outage because the Internet phone system needs power to operate.
Reprogramming or Clearing All Programmed Telephone Numbers
Programming over the number in memory will replace that number. If you find that you need to clear the telephone
numbers that are stored in memory, unplug the monitoring system control panel from the wall adapter and remove the 9V
battery for 30 seconds or more. The memory will now be erased and the reprogramming sequence can be restarted.
