Thank you very very much much hologeek, I was hopeful someone could help, but thought it might take a long time to come and you sent this to me a few hours after posting. The manual does indeed look to be just what I need, pin-outs and all 
Edit: Reading the manual, the unit will give a system error alarm when the alarm line is low, I probably just need to provide the high and the alarm should clear and maybe, produce IR output. I found this unit on ebay for $200, if it works such a deal. If not, some great parts.
