• FA-700 will immediately dial the call-to phone number.
• Upon answering, the unit will play the following message: “This is a test
of the FreezeAlarm.”
• It will repeat this message for approximately “1” minute and then hang
up, and the alarm LED will go out.
The FA-700 does not provide any indication of call success; therefore, you must verify that
the call was made successfully.
Testing for a specific alarm condition
To test for a temperature alarm, you will need to simulate that specific alarm condition and
then verify if the alarm phone call went through. In this scenario, you must cancel the alarm
call out and correct the alarm condition.
Ring count timer
The ring timer works in the following way: when the first call comes in during an alarm
event, the timer starts counting down for “3” continuous minutes. If the FA-700 receives
enough rings to answer (within “3” minutes), it will respond, and the ring counter will reset
to “0” regardless if the three minutes have elapsed or not. Also, the timer will reset to “0” if
no additional calls are received during a three minute period (multiple calls to the FA-700
within “3” minutes will not reset the ring timer).
Calling the FA-700 during an alarm event
To call the FA-700 during an alarm, do the following:
Call the phone number of location where the FA-700 is located—it will answer
in 5 or 10 rings (DIP switch set) and deliver an alarm specific message.
An in-phone line answering machine/voice mail with the
FA-700
When it is necessary to connect an answering machine or voice mail device to the same
phone line as the FA-700, you can still use all the features of these devices, along with being
able to cancel an alarm call out of the FA-700.
