Intermediate FreezeAlarm
User Manual for FA-I-CCA
Thank you for purchasing our Intermediate FreezeAlarm. This instruction manual
covers installation for model FA-I-CCA.
General Description
The Intermediate FreezeAlarm automatically calls up to three phone numbers when the
temperature either rises above or falls below a customer-determined temperature set-
point. It also calls if the power fails for a period of time or if the back-up battery
requires replacing. You can remotely check the temperature, power status and battery
voltage by calling your FreezeAlarm from any phone in the world. The FreezeAlarm
uses a series of menu options that are accessible by pressing the buttons on your Touch-
Tone phone. All menus are in English.
The FreezeAlarm can be programmed by either plugging a standard, single line
telephone into the front program jack or remotely programming it from an outside
telephone or cell phone. The FreezeAlarm indefinitely retains all programmed phone
numbers, temperature alarm setpoints and security code information even when the
power is out or the back-up battery is either dead or removed.
The Intermediate FreezeAlarm comes standard with the following sensors:
•
Temperature sensor. This sensor comes on a cord that can be extended up to
100 feet (30.5 m) from the base unit. The sensor can detect temperatures from
-66°F to 302°F (-55° to 150°C). Additional temperature sensors cannot be
added to this FreezeAlarm.
•
AC power failure. The FreezeAlarm detects a power failure if the AC power
to the base unit fails. Use the programming menu to select the number of
minutes (from 0 to 120 minutes) that the power should be out before the
FreezeAlarm begins to call the three pre-programmed phone numbers. You
can also turn the
Power Alarm Monitoring
feature off so that it never calls
with a power out alarm.
•
Back-Up Battery. The FreezeAlarm uses a 9 volt lithium battery for back up
power should the AC power to the unit fail. If the battery’s voltage falls below
7 volts, the FreezeAlarm will automatically begin to call your three phone
numbers.
