High school fire drill, The last time you see my school's system like this! Drill #3

[@aerhardt]

Wow that is a huge and very nice school! It will be much better when it is synchronized. A school that big and modern would certainly have voice evac in my area.

[@nics-systems-electric]

Yeah Unless it's a high-rise or medical facility it doesn't get Voicevac here

[@erikmorozov1740]

Not always even in USA big buildings might not have Speaker strobe fire alarm everywhere there can be still horn strobes fire alarms

[@IanGSully]

Well, hopefully they will finally put to an end of the fire alarm disco party once and for all! But at first I did think that they planned to put a voice evac system, but I figured that was highly unlikely, and my other thought was if they were going to put an end to the sync problem, and I thought right about the sync problem lol.

[@jeramyjaymes]

At least you tried to conceal the building. I didn't know you were in Canada!

[@hqgirl567]

I really like this school. I didn’t know there was a soccer field and a basketball court. That’s just so cool! Would love to go to that school but I’m graduated. But awsome video!

[@TornadoTrick]

Based on the surrounding terrain and storms, I will take a guess as to that this school is in the state of Oregon. Am I correct?

[@FMGstudiosYT]

Do the horns have to be synced? I know the strobes do by fire code.

[@nics-systems-electric]

Yes I would say as you can't have mixed signals

[@Mumcooking-h3o]

Also I forgot to mention whatever the fire alarms go off at your high school and the big atrium Area it sounds like the fire alarms are trying to scream at each other lol😂😂😂😂😂

[@nics-systems-electric]

Yes the synchronization is bad

theater is a good shot of the sync issue 7:45

[@nics-systems-electric]

Yes for sure

[@jepps1021]

If the panel has an XP6-C NAC cards it will need a sync-1 module for the synchronization but if they’re off an APS610 Power supply that’s just a programming option. Not sure about Remote booster packs, the older ones couldn’t be synced .. hope this helps!

[@nics-systems-electric]

As far as the booster panel I think if you jumped the nac feeding it to the sync follow input it should synchronize following the synchronization coming from the main panel

[@jepps1021]

@@nics-systems-electric that may do the trick!

[@nics-systems-electric]

@@jepps1021 in theory that should have the addition synchronized however that doesn't explain the problem for the original area not being synchronized

[@maxdutiel]

At least all your NAC circuits are closed. We have 1 NAC circuit branch on our panel that is open. I don’t know if a device is down or if someone cut a wire.

[@nics-systems-electric]

We do get a open nac whenever our booster panel goes into trouble could be the same situation there

@@nics-systems-electric They don't look as nice though. Our district's high school, ironically, burned down many years ago. The steps are still on the hillside.

[@IanGSully]

That is especially bad if those alarms are not synced like that and you are in an atrium, because then someone is going to be like "What the hell is that?" as the alarms are just doing their own thing if you know what I mean.

[@nics-systems-electric]

Yeah exactly

[@Luke202-z8b]

if there are probably elevators here, there should be speaker strobes unless if there is a reason why the replacement of these fire alarms couldn't use speaker strobes

[@nics-systems-electric]

There's two elevators not sure what you're talking about though the system was never replaced the buildings less than 10 years old

[@Luke202-z8b]

@nics-systems-electric or yeah maybe just the building is new and they installed l series, but really what i mean by there should be speaker strobes is that, since most say "do not use the elevators and use the stairways" you'd expect people to listen to that and think twice of using the elevator while there is a fire.

[@nics-systems-electric]

@@Luke202-z8b not required

[@Luke202-z8b]

@nics-systems-electric i will admit, there is not really a high chance that the elevator would explode when there is a fire anyway. If you need a quick way to get out, then use the elevator lol

[@Mumcooking-h3o]

What do you said the last time you ever see the system like this I almost started crying because I thought you meant the entire system was about to get changed for a different system and the reason why I almost cried is because notifier and system sensor devices are my favorites

[@nics-systems-electric]

My school district only uses notifier now if the system was replaced it would be replaced with another notifier system it's only eight years old though so it should be fine for a while

[@elevatorstrainsandmore8313]

Old, and new fire alarms may cause synchronized problems.

[@nics-systems-electric]

I explained that in the video I do not consider 2015 old at all any system sensor products in the last 25 year will sync

[@aerhardt]

Maybe the panel is set to continuous instead of System Sensor sync.

[@nics-systems-electric]

It's a more complicated problem than that as it's been looked into before with no success some strobes and horns seem to synchronize but not all of them not sure what the problem is though

[@Starlight_Emergency_Light]

My high school had a surprise fire drill yesterday and tested the emergency Lights after the The power went out for 1 hour and the entire emergency light system failed within 20 minutes

Syncing the system is good not only because syncing prevents sezirues, but it allows for a clear evac signal. A synced temporal 3is better for clearer audbile evac signal, and same with synced strobes too in my opinion.
