DIP switch functions and settings
The FA-700 has a 4-position DIP switch. The switch settings determine how the FA-700 will
respond to specific alarm conditions. Figure 2 shows the DIP switch and Table 3 explains the
functions of each switch. Turn the FA-700 upside down as shown in Figure 2 for proper DIP
switch orientation.

Temperature low or high:
• UP, when the monitored location temp falls below 45ºF (7.2ºC) an alarm
message is sent.
• DOWN, when the monitored location temp rises above 85ºF (29.4ºC) an
alarm message is sent.
Pick-up ring count when calling your FA-700 to cancel an alarm:
• UP, “5” rings before the FA-700 will answer.
• DOWN, “10” rings before the FA-700 will answer.
Monitors call out frequency:
• UP, calls out every 15 minutes.
