Fire Alarm System Full Upgrade At Elementary School | replacing system | Notifier NFS2-3030 Day 2

[@mikeross880]

That library replacement reminded me of a certain quote; “If your smoke detector is turning yellow it ain’t mellow, but if it’s white then everything is right” Also thanks for the elevator ride, love those classic Dover impulses. Very common in the 90’s

Man, the MPS-2C series pull stations would be almost perfect if they hadn't screwed up with the resistor placement! They're durable, easy to use, hard to accidentally activate, and somewhat visually appealing, but a PITA for installers. Very unfortunate, but it's good that you guys got all of these installed without a problem.

[@nics-systems-electric]

The whole backside of the thing is just ridiculous if it was easier to set the address and not quite so large it would be much better

[@firetruckstrainsandroblox]

the adress loop thingy should really be inside the station like the BG12's have it

[@eDoc2020]

I found the gymnasium light switches amusing. The most I've ever seen personally is six light switches in a row. In the older schools in my area most of the gym lights were just switched at the breaker.

[@All_ConsumingBandu]

This probably has to be my favorite replacement fire alarm video on this channel because I liked how in the last video you let us hear the alarm before and saw the unsynced strobes which look cool but probably illegal. You should do that for now on, and probably on the next if you do.

[@nics-systems-electric]

This will probably be my last one

Honestly Nic, you should make a durability test on the SYNC-1A and XP6-CA cards sometime, if you still have them from your old high school

[@thijs-cutejojo12]

Hello dear Nic i really love you video's i would say keep up the great work!! But i have a little crazy questions as of the old devices from the school or any building i wanted to ask if i could maybe get some as im planning on making a fire alarm system for in my house, i was trying to make my own devices but so far no luck. As for the device i would need i will make a little list. I would love to get, 4x Alarm bells (the ones from the last video) 4x Strobes (from last vid or any version) 4x pull station (any old version or one you plan on never using) 4x smoke detector (any old version or one you plan on never using) 3x heat detector (any old version or one you plan on never using) 1x any old or new FACP (any old version or one you plan on never using) 1x monitor module and ofc 2x slc loop isolators I know for a fact you will never do it, but if you do remember that i am a 15-year-old boy wanting to follow his dreams. Anyways keep up the good work and if you do somehow convince yourself to send me some stuff feel free to message me or anything.

@@nics-systems-electricThose things seem like a b*tch to install. Can’t say I blame him. Yeah Honeywell could have done better with designing those pull stations, at least where the module needs to go anyway 🤦‍♂️. But was that Pete that said that? Just curious because that sounded like his voice

[@Toastthegoober]

Have you heard of Sentron? They were based oit of Edmonton, Alberta.

[@SPCAlbanycounty536]

For some reason at my school, has disabled, all the annunciators there’s two in the whole building and they said that they disabled them so they can control it from the panel and if you’re wondering what the panel is it’s a notifier I don’t know what kind of panel it, but the CPU looks like a 3030 and yeah there’s a lot of disabled smoke and beam detectors. The reason why those are disabled I believe one time my school was having a party in the high school gym and they asked one of the custodians to disable some smoke detectors in the gym because it gonna be using a fog machine for a party in there, but some of the smoke made it into the locker rooms and set the system off and the fire alarm system was not on test so the fire department responded I believe two fire departments responded because I believe the fire chief and the ladder truck responded also

[@Siren_StrObE]

My high schools 1990s system is being replaced with a notifier voice evac system but they are drilling new holes and new boxes and just deleting everything old

[@Actvbrogan]

18:55 I am so scared of heights I could neverrr

[@nics-systems-electric]

That one only goes 19 feet to the bottom of it so it's not too bad ladders are way scarier

[@SPCAlbanycounty536]

You should tie the access control system into the fire alarm system so when the fire alarms go off the access controls unlocked and then re-lock when the system is reset

[@nics-systems-electric]

The school only has access control on one exterior door

[@aerhardt]

While you’re doing this, is there any sort of fire watch? What would happen if a fire started while there was no active fire alarm system-especially in a non-sprinklered building at night?

[@nics-systems-electric]

It's not required when the building is not occupied therefore it's up to property management in this case that would be the school district facilities who could decide if they wanted or not

[@achannelwithnopurpose1977]

@@nics-systems-electric I mean you’d be about 200 USD richer if you sold the panel to me and I got PayPal for currency exchange so imagine 200 USD converted to Canadian currency. I can reprogram this unit using the code loader to upgrade the software version to 2.5 then just use QS-CU 2.5 for the config change. Then I’ll get a SIGA-HDT so I can factory default any device I get for it and turn on mapping.

[@maiyo8518]

You have to replace the EST genesis? It has been there like not to long and you still have to replace it. That doesn’t make sense that it is probably like 13 years old and you still have to replace it

[@nics-systems-electric]

Yes? It's not compatible with the new system the panel is less than 10 years old too but you still have to change it that's how it works.

[@SomeGuyWithInternet]

Technically the Genesis probably would have _functioned_ but not correctly. For health and safety reasons, modern codes require that all signals on a system (especially strobes) have to be synchronized, but the ways that alarm manufacturers synchronize their devices are different and often proprietary. The majority of the signals on the old system were unsyncable so they couldn't be kept, and the replacements for those (from System Sensor) are incompatible with the way that the Genesis syncs.

[@mingez]

Very good question @maiyo8518. I wouldn't have realized that a 13 year old strobe is already obsolete! Thanks for asking!

[@nics-systems-electric]

@@mingez it's not obsolete if it's being used on its compatible brand but in this case it isn't

[@maiyo8518]

@@mingez yes, fire alarms from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s needs to be replaced. But fire alarms from the early 2000s, I thought they didn’t need to be replaced so that was surprising. The reason why they replaced it because of the system was Edwards so as the genesis is owed by it.
