Hi Craig,
in the F-16 flight manual I found the following description:
OFF = Engine bleed air valves close. All air-conditioning, cooling and
pressurizing functions shut off, including anti-g suit, canopy seal and
fuel tank pressurization.
NORM = Air-conditioning system set for automatic temperature and pressure
regulation.
DUMP = Cockpit pressure dump valve opens to atmospheric pressure.
Conditioned air ventilates cockpit and performs all other system functions.
RAM = Engine bleed air valves close. All air-conditioning, cooling and
pressurizing functions shut off, including anti-g suit, canopy seal and
fuel tank pressurization. The ram air valve opens to admit ram air to
ventilate the cockpit and avionic equipment.
