Products offers a carrousel that easily holds six “D” cell batteries and has a wire
connected to it for quick connection to the FreezeAlarm’s battery terminals. This will
be available in late 2005.
In addition, the FreezeAlarm can accept up to 12 volts of DC power through the battery
connection. Because of this, you could connect a 12 VDC battery to the battery
terminals on the FreezeAlarm and have a much longer battery life than even the “D”
cell battery option described above. Emerson Control Products has not tested this
option nor have we determined the operational life when the FreezeAlarm is running
off this battery option. For more information on this application, contact Technical
Support.
5.0 COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
1.
I have pulse dialing on my phone line. Can I use the FreezeAlarm?
Yes. There is a pulse/tone dip switch on the back of your FreezeAlarm. Put
this switch in the UP position to dial out in pulse dialing mode. If you are
programming the FreezeAlarm locally using a phone plugged into the front of
the FreezeAlarm, your telephone must be set to tone because the
FreezeAlarm’s menu structure requires touch tones to operate. Once you have
completed the programming functions, you can reset your phone back to pulse
mode.
2.
I have to dial 9 before I can make a phone call. Can I do this?
Generally, the FreezeAlarm should be able to dial 9 or any other sequence of
numbers during a phone call. If you need to dial a number to get an outside
line or a dial tone, it is recommended you program in a 9 followed by a pause.
This will allow the phone system time to get the dial tone before the
FreezeAlarm begins playing the rest of the digits of your call-to phone
number.
3.
Do I need a dedicated phone line for my FreezeAlarm?
No. The FreezeAlarm uses any existing single line telephone line. This is
discussed in detail on page 6 in section 1.3.
4.
If I unplug the FreezeAlarm or take out the battery, will I have to re-program
all my telephone numbers and settings?
No. The FreezeAlarm uses a special memory that retains all of your
programmed call-to phone numbers and settings indefinitely.
5.
How do I reset my FreezeAlarm?
The FreezeAlarm automatically resets itself when the alarm call-out has been
canceled and the alarm conditions have been corrected.
6.
My temperature sensor is damaged.
