Apollo XP95/Discovery House System Test 1 | Tour And Test

So here is the first addressable system test of the house fire alarm system! It went better than It planned, expect lots more videos of this in the future. I will sort out the cables in my room and they're going in trunking and conduit. Also I do plan on expanding to the garage and possibly downstairs.

Ignore the dodgy wiring, all of it got sorted out. Watch system test 4 and beyond.

[@alarmmuseum]

Nice one! I’ve always loved the mix of XP95 base sounders and Symphonies/100dB sounders.

[@Goodtimes2021]

Me too

[@kananram7476]

That fire alarm goes lightning

[@Crystal0662]

They sound so good all together

[@UKLevelCrossingAndBridges]

Agreed.

[@obsirensandalarms]

the intelligent base sounder actually syncs in pretty well

[@Goodtimes2021]

3:05 I like the sounder

[@obsirensandalarms]

Symphoni and Intelligent Sounder Base sound so good

Very good test! Great system!

My Primary school had the exact same sound of it's fire alarm 🚨🚨🚨

[@SEANJACKSONOFFICIAL]

I love the c tech alarm

[@nicolalapczuk7522]

I love your videos

[@mrsecurity]

Awesome Test! Looks very very nice!

[@ROBLOXRUHAN]

3:13 Bro the intelligent sounder base is loud as hell 3:03 start of Sounders

[@jamieyt101]

that sound into 3 mins in the video that sounded like the one in my primary it was annoying how do you have that one

[@THLighting989]

Nice one !!! Nice system

[@MisterBrownJack]

Great video! I do like the system!

[@SEANJACKSONOFFICIAL]

The alerts sound like the tannoy turnout alarms at the fire station I used to work at

[@mrjumaatsamian]

DANG IT SYNC

[@Elliotgh2836]

Can you show me the discovery multy senser smoke detector ringing for 6mins

[@nbfs0001]

The intelligent sounder base totally overpowered the other bases!

[@yeety1208]

ikr!

[@singinglift409]

YOU CANT EVEN HEAR THE BASE SOUNDERS WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED IN THE PANEL ROOM ALL YOU CAN HEAR IS THE SYMPHANI@@yeety1208

[@ROBLOXRUHAN]

THATS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID

[@singinglift409]

how old are the devices [in terms of production age]

[@trentonking2966]

the evacuate 1 is the 1 i have at my school.

[@user-gd7mk6jv4l]

I love apollo

[@natanek2206]

Symphony is basically the higher pitched version of the XP95 and intelligent base sounder is the lower pitched version of the XP95 but all of the systems sound good C-tech also sounds really good I might get one but I won’t wire it

[@jamie-leelineker9329]

When you play the alert tone from your panel? Why does it play the evacuation tone in some rooms? As soon as you played the alert tone, I heard the evacuation tone too, Why is that? Is this normal?

[@natanek2206]

C-tech only plays evacuate because I think that’s how Apollo made it idk

[@yeety1208]

@@natanek2206 no its because the panel hes using (kentec syncro) doesnt fully support the discovery sounders (at least from the panel itself anyway). on the advanced he has now it does do alert

[@natanek2206]

@@yeety1208 ok I see

[@hj-installations.3838]

also the reason the symphoni is crackling is because either you have wired the loop the wrong way into it or you don't have enough isolators.

[@fst1775]

Interesting, I do seem to have quite a lot of isolators on the system as all the base sounders/bsdr b have isolators. I’ll look at the wiring but I’m pretty sure it would of pissed of the panel if it was a wiring fault, But I’ll see anyway.

[@testlogs9005]

isolators are to cut out sections of the network that are short circuited. they don't filter interference. if you get a section of cable between two isolators and short it out you will find the yellow LEDs come on, on both and the panel will report open loop along with missing devices on the shorted section of cable if any. apollo have designed their protocols to be quite robust against interference, they will take quite a bit before data becomes to fuzzy to decode, the interference can however be amplified by the sounders if it gets past the filter circuit designed to filter the power from the data on the two wire network. all FP200 cable is screened for data integrity that's that foil wrapping the pair, follow the manufactures instructions on where to connect this to in each device and most importantly at the panel where the screen is connected to earth.

[@fst1775]

@@testlogs9005 yeah true, I’ll get round to replace the synphoni to an open area sonos sounder probably.

[@jcfirealarms5780]

@@testlogs9005 Yeah I had that with my intelligent call point and KAC call points isolator leds lighting up, but it was handy as I knew it was the wires going between the two that were shorting

[@jcfirealarms5780]

To be fair replacing it with a Sonos would be much better as they are much easier to wire

[@ROBLOXRUHAN]

3:12 Alarms going off Subtitles:Music

[@fst1775]

I’d also consider it music too.

[@obsirensandalarms]

@@fst1775😂 I think all fire alarm enthusiasts find Apollo evac to be music 🎶

[@aviationtrainsfc1]

That blue flash is scary

[@obsirensandalarms]

It’s white but it’s probably the camera that makes it look blue.

[@obsirensandalarms]

Why doesn’t that c-tec vad base not do alert tone? Don’t know why I’m asking this now since it’s not on the system anymore 😂

[@fst1775]

It's because at the time that was the only discovery protocol sounder base on the system. The default "alert tone" for the kentec was still alternating, and was unable to change without software.

[@obsirensandalarms]

@@fst1775ohh right

[@stanleyplayz-zx8kp]

when I was in year 1 of school a piece of the fire alarm system was struck by lightning at that time I didn't like loud noises and so every lets say 2-3 mins it would not do a evacuation tone like normal it would just randomly beep for 2-3 seconds then stop and so I was sitting with a teacher and we were right below a smoke detector but I thought it was a sounder so I said "we are under a fire alarm" cos I didn't know they were called sounders the teacher lied and said" its not a fire alarm its a smoke detector" and I believed it now I know smoke detectors so also make sound

[@epic6890]

if you make new system tests please put the camera near the alarms because i can't hear properly with 2 vol. Btw i also tested the fire alarm system quality in games

[@wisehat_yt]

nice video but i have to ask… why do you have a normal house smoke alarm in the ceiling when you have a full fire alarm setup?

[@fst1775]

That smoke alarm was removed ages ago, please see my newer system tests. Downstairs will have xpander when I get one.

[@wisehat_yt]

@@fst1775 okay cheers for replying

[@Goodtimes2021]

Please keep the syphony is good sounder

[@nicolalapczuk7522]

on your videos why do you not test downstairs

[@FreGamingYT]

Is this a cooper symphony sounder?

[@obsirensandalarms]

It’s in the style of one

I got this sound at my college

[@Cspotting_]

Do you think you could add a roshini sounder downstairs as I think that xp95 devices sound nice with Rossini’s

[@fst1775]

My parents would not want wall sounders, only base sounders really, interesting suggestion though!

[@Cspotting_]

oh ok thanks for answering my question tho

[@KhydcGaming]

Imagine trying to go to bed but a c-tec is in your roo.

Got to admit the white sounder bacon looks very nice when it flashes I probably have to prefer the white than red but I don’t mind red I like white more and it’s grate there all in sink

[@hj-installations.3838]

Few things i've picked up on, i can't tell if it's just your video but your sounders sound really low (Needs to be 85db.) And FP would be noice, other than that, decent.

[@fst1775]

The system will be converted to FP200 eventually I just don’t have some at hand at the moment plus my parents don’t want me making large holes in the ceilings of bedrooms at the moment. I’ll do a check on the db levels and the volume of the sounder beacon base as it does seem quiet, I reckon it’s dip switch 8.

[@hj-installations.3838]

@@hj-installations.3838 the integrated base sounders seem to be on full volume, however I’m not sure about the sounder beacon base. But the intelligent does seem louder and take over the sounder beacon base.
