School Fire Drill - 4/18/23

[@achannelwithnopurpose1977]

I’m thinking the panel probably was originally a 4100 classic based on the old hardware and field devices but now it has a 4100ES cpu and display operating as the head end to the system. Cool the new stuff was designed with be compatible with the old analog hardware in mind. Not sure why the panel doesn’t have the new 4100ES stickers. They come with the upgrade kit(s). My old highschool’s 4100U panel was also rigged to the PA system and would cause the PA to play a special tone until the NACs were silenced or the system was reset.

Man again i love the sound of those older simplex alarms.

[@radiosnmore1225]

i actually got to pull the fire alarms at my school too!!

[@mikeperdomo2108]

Hey SirenDude1003, Cool😎 Sound Of The Simplex 4903 And 9838

[@theguradien]

good thing they test them, in my middle school one of the smoke detectors went crazy and set off the alarm twice!

Finally some fire alarm content from you! Great video, and I love those older Simplex alarms

[@queencitysirens8755]

Never seen fire doors that swing like that lol

[@SirenDude1003]

1950s building for ya

[@Simplexkid]

Because it doesn’t a think that prevents it from swinging like that

[@Kram_Lololo]

Never did I expect to be recommended a niche such as alarm systems

[@trainknightt]

Is this in Milwaukee? I never caught on but I heard the guy on the radio say "The Rave"..

You Got To Pull It But Not Reset It.

[@aidanthetoiletelevatorfire7554]

Those simplex 4903+9838 combos are so cool! I also have one more month left of high school. My school has EST Genesis speaker strobes tho and they play the boston tone.

[@GaryBeltz]

What message and tone does it have?

[@aidanthetoiletelevatorfire7554]

It plays a 900HZ tone with no message.

[@trainknightt]

Lmfao the principal did not know what he was saying 6:13 "it'll say normal so it still isn't done yet", should've told him all you have to do is press C/Exit on the keypad and it'll say normal. it takes 60 seconds for it to go to a "Normal" screen if you do not clear that "Reset Complete" screen

[@jacobisworld9516]

Same

[@dale4231]

Over 5 minutes to evacuate a high school? That’s pretty scary…

[@radiosnmore1225]

its pretty normal

[@dale4231]

@@radiosnmore1225 my high school has 3200 students and our evacuation time as of our fire drill yesterday was 1:47… that’s normal, not 5 minutes. 2 minutes is the National standard.

[@radiosnmore1225]

@@dale4231 oh ok

[@SirenDude1003]

It took something like 2-3 minutes to evacuate the building. They just missed the report for a couple doors. I know from experience that the upstairs area (the part that takes the longest to evacuate by far) only takes 2-3 minutes to vacate. So not the greatest evac time but not horrible. The previous fire drill video on my channel started in said area, and by the time I reached the bottom of the steps right near the exit (before i took a second route) was about 2.5 mins.

[@mrthomasfritz]

Those doors are not ADA complainant and a person with walking problems, or chair bound can not get though the doors to safety and would die.

[@SirenDude1003]

Theyre easy to push open. Honestly id almost say theyre better since you wouldnt have to hold the panic bar while wheeling through the door. You just wheel right through and it opens right up

[@vintagesimplexfirealarmsof6440]

nice 4903s and 9838s whats the panel

[@realkrobi]

cool

[@bruh3120]

Whats the panel? Probably a 4100U or a 400X

[@Fahrenheit4051]

3:30 - It's a 4100U or 4100ES retrofitted into an old 4100 enclosure.

[@bruh3120]

​@@Fahrenheit4051 Most likely a 4100U because i dont think a 4100ES looks like that

[@Fahrenheit4051]

@@bruh3120 Normally, it doesn't, but that one was retrofitted into a 4100 (not 4100U) cabinet. A newly-installed 4100ES usually has the sleek, rounded door. Sometimes you will see them in a 4100U-style cabinet, especially if replacing a 2001 or 4100U. I recently encountered an extremely rare one that was designed to fit in an Autocall TFX-500 cabinet, and looked a bit taller and skinnier. It even had a special card to run the old Autocall addressable devices!

[@GaryBeltz]

Is that a 4100 or 4010?

[@johndeerefan725]

4100

[@bruh3120]

​@@johndeerefan725 its a 4100U inside a 4100 classic cabinet
