I have these same horns at my old school but on continuas. It definitely gets people's attention, especially if your in a echoey place, like the gym. Good video!
When I was in school there were more bells and some of the old-fashioned buzzers. During fire drills they gave approximately 12 short rings followed by about a 10 second pause before they rang again.
Those appear to be Simplex 4903-9838s or 9833s it's weird how they have the strobe plates mounted and separate from the horns and interesting how a lot of them have those glass panels covering them.
@@vintagesimplexfirealarmsof6440 yea everybody was confused at first because everybody was used to hear March time now they hearing code 3 and a lot of kids was walking very slow they normally sometimes they be running
Seems some of the Staff and Students Looked super confused hearing the horns On Code 3, It also looks the Strobes in some parts are Syncing. But it could be your camera. The Strobe and horn setup looks like a design that's commonly found here In Most Chicago Schools, The Strobes are Usually Wheelock but the Horns are Simplex based. A lot of Schools here(My old High School I attended for 2 years) Has Simplex 4901-9816 horns Next to Wheelock RSS and MT Strobes On Continuous Coding. It was later changed to Code 3 ironically. Mostly We use Non-Temporal on our setups even in newer installs. Also, was the bonus clip from the same day or was this a different day. Nice to see this though
The bonus clip was the same day my friend also recorded the horns by his classroom and A lot of people were confuse because when the horns been changed to Temporal coding back then a lot of staff and students was used to March time and they move quicker but as I’m recording I see kids are moving slow which I understand and yea Thx for watching and my school is also having another fire drill coming up and I will be recording Second floor
@@hampton-roads-bus-guy AC alternates from positive to negative at 60 times per second in a sine wave pattern. The simplest DC power supplies have a transformer that steps the voltage down from 120 VAC to 24 VAC. Then it goes through a diode-based bridge rectifier, which "flips" the negative side to positive, so that on a graph it would look like a series of bumps instead of a sine wave. This is called full-wave rectified (FWR) current and is a rough equivalent of DC. This rippling current will cause certain appliances to function differently. Some horns will sound rough/warbly, and some strobes will flash faster. Some panels (like the MS-2) have this kind of power supply, and certain devices like TrueAlerts are incompatible with it. More sophisticated power supplies will use a filtering capacitor, which discharges to fill in the gaps, smoothing out the ripple to a nearly flat line - filtered DC. If this capacitor starts to go bad, you'll get a noticeable ripple somewhere between DC and FWR. If it's completely dead, you'll be back to FWR again. A lot of 2001's and 4001's have this issue.
Well yea but it’s the panel that’s coding it the coding was on March time on the 2901s before and the ceiling mount truealerts was on pulse and now the 2901s on now on temporal code now the ceiling mount truealerts it’s still the same coding as pulse 🤷🏾♂️
Yup that’s bc there are new alarms installed and the panel was updated during the summer we is upgrading to a new panel too idk what’s it’s gonna be but we’re upgrading to a new one
@@N.P.R.P.. Yea I don’t get it there’s a difference between shelter in place and a fire drill and what possessed the principal to even say it counts as a Fire drill when you have a fire drill every one supposed to evacuate the school what u do in Shelter in place you basically have to remain in the classroom until the shelter in place has been lifted
Yeah it’s confusing. It wasn’t a drill as K9’a were searching our wing. Besides our principal could’ve done it yesterday last day of September but she took the day off.

yessir!! very nice video brotha, I really love the truealerts and the mechanical horns. Can’t wait for the next one

4:47 That 9806 must have replaced a Broken down 9838 or 4901-9817

I like that unique setup with that gentex remote strobe and 9838 retrofit, plus code 3!
That’s also cool how there was a 9838 and a 9806 horn in the video that’s cool
yea ik Thx for watching and they are 9846s and 9838s and the 9806

Not all of them have those on the strobe the reason we have them on there bc they’re kids braking and tampering with it
Nice Video

Cool I like those
Thx!🔥

I'm going to miss hearing it too.
I was 💀 the 1st time u put ur hand over one of the horns and it sounded like it got mad at u 🤣
when my school do a fire drill in October I’m gonna do it again and it and I think the horn doesn’t like when I do that😂💀

AWESOME video! Weird how one of the power supplies was unfiltered.
Thx bro and Thx for watching and Ik it is kind of strange that the power supplies was unfiltered
filtering capacitor is probably bad on that one. this would fry any truealert on that p/s
