Level four password is 440000.  The programming sequence is really
specific and straight forward.  If you need the manual, I can send it to
you.  Unless the password has been changed by the "installing company"
(which is not uncommon), you should be able to configure the system.
Give me a call later in the morning.  I'll be in the office after 1100
hours (Pacific).  The 800 number is at the bottom of every page on our
website.
