The 1401 should be able to use the 7351 in 1-way with the current antenna or with the 6211t antenna/receiver you get 2-way or you can do the 7752/7941 remotes with the 6711t antenna/receiver. But Either way if you want full use of the LCD you will need to upgrade the antenna/receiver as the lcd remotes are 2 way. And the antenna shipped with the 1401 is 1 way only. Also can get the 7251 LE led 2-way remotes that will work with the 6211t antenna/receiver.

Ok kool so all I have to do is change the antenna to a 6211T and get Either 7351/7752/7941 remotes. And it should work right?

There is a unit date code of 10/D (ie 10=year/D=month_April) or newer, that is on the main unit or antenna itsself that the 6211t has to have or the 7351 wont work.
The 7752/7941 remotes will only work with any 6711t antenna.
The Difference between the 2 antenna/receivers is the range 6211t is 2000-2500ft and 6711t is 1 mile.

Ok if I buy the 6211T can I just switch out the antenna part and use the same cable that is already connected to the brain?

Yes, the 6111t you have is a 6 pin and so are the 6211t and 6711t. Plug in the antenna/receiver to the existing cable, and pair the new remote(s). Old remotes will work with the 6211t, only need to pair the 7351v/p/x remote. The 6711t won't work with the old remotes. Its that simple!

What about the 544N 2Way Antenna and Python 477P
2-Way LCD remote? Would this work on my system?

There are two things, First the antenna has no led or valet switch so you would need to have a 4 pin antenna and seperate led , valet switch plus the seperate plugs on the brain.
Second In theory it should work but I've never tested it, or know of any one who has. As the serial data should be the same, with the antenna/reciever determining the remote code and frequency.
So will it work probably.
Will I guarentee it no.
Try at you own risk. That is how I figured it out.

Does the 7351P have a LCD backlight?
For example if its dark outside and i press the unlock button will the screen turn on so I can see it?

Supposed to be the same as the 7752 just different frequency and coding 2000ft range. Is back lit and has multiple colors. They have three different plastic housings for the 3 product lines in each part number.

Ok how would I pair the 7351P remote to the 6211T?
The 7351P says Ill here a siren. But I dont have the siren. Will I hear my horn for pairing?

It has two modes alarm or RKE if you look at the 7752 manual I posted in the downloads section. Pairing is the same also.

What is RKE? I looked at your post for the 7752 and i did not see the options for alarm and RKE
Posted By: lurch228

Remote Keyless Entry(RKE)
It's in the Remote setup options list listed as "System type",(Remote Start & Security) (Remote Start). It disables the icons and functions not needed for remote start and keyless usage.

Update I got the lcd remote and antenna today.
Switched out the antenna and programed the remote all it works great thank.
Now another question is can I add a siren and shock sensor?
Posted By: lurch228
Date Posted: November 03, 2012 at 4:34 PM
That unit didn't com equipped with the ports to plug in an siren, and the shock sensors were internal. So you would have to swap out the brain then you could.

Ok which brain do I need? And where can I buy it?
Posted By: lurch228
Date Posted: November 03, 2012 at 5:23 PM
ebay and look for any alarm/remote start brain that has wiring or you will have to buy a H3, as the H3 will be a 10 pin plug, also watch the antenna plug yours is 6 pin some are 4 pin with seperate valet and led. But you can look at the viper 5601,5701,5901,5902, and the equals in Pyhton, Clifford to start.
