[@CO84trucker]

The community where I went to elementary school had several EOWS 612s and a 1212. I remember during the statewide tornado drill and siren test, they all ran the steady/alert signal and they used the hi-lo signal for all clear. Unfortunately they were all replaced with FS 2001s in the mid 2000s.

On a side note, the sound at 5:29 is the one they play close to home by the river every week and sometimes at 1:30am! There are homes close by it so I don’t know how the hell those people can live with that siren so loud going off every week and sometimes so early in the morning. I think nobody around here sleeps. Jesus!! I don’t even know why they have to play that every week or if it’s even legal to do that.

I know a vol dept that has 12 cones on theres when firecontrol sets it off boy is that loud 6 on ft 6 on back all it does is wind up for 30 secs then winds down

[@seanjuth]

The reason it continues to rotate after the chimes, is because the chime cards didn't have the logic to tell the controller when it is done with it's signal cycle. As a result, the siren continues to run with the amplifiers on for the duration of the adjusted signal time. Funny enough, after the chimes, a really high pitched tome ends up going through the speaker drivers.

General meanings of these tones: Alert: Potential Danger, be advised. Wail: Imminent threat to life, take cover. Alternate Steady: Fire call Alternate Wail: Evacuation order Pulsed Steady: Chemical spill/Hazmat danger Pulsed Wail: I have no idea

[@goomanhlr5697]

[@UpgradedtitanspeakermanUTSM]

Why does the eows 612 have a Westminster chime?

[@SockyNoob]

Most electronic sirens have a "quiet" tone which is usually a sound that's completely different to a siren. It's used when the operators want to test a siren without causing panic, useful for urban areas or on days that aren't clear and sunny.

[@atomicrussian01]

What are the tones all used for, obv wail is attack just like it states but what r the others used for?
