OG fan here, it's awesome to see how far you have come since a kid with your first fire alarm. I hope that I get to see more videos on your life and how far it has come.
The campus I went to has a giant voice mass notification system by Simplex in every building, replacing all the old fire alarm systems (Wheelock, Simplex, and Cerberus Pyrotronics ranging from the 60’s (you read that right!) to the 90’s), and tying the new fire alarm systems to the mass notification systems all in one. A couple buildings have 4100U’s while most buildings have 4100ES’.
@@KnoxvilleRailfanProductions there’s a campus about 20 minutes from me that has a Modulator 4016. It is Rosalind Franklin University in North Chicago, IL
This is a absolute AMAZING VIDEO! I love when you got the entire test and the view of both of the siren and system inside and what the difference type of alarms the building uses! If you did not you you are the person that got me into liking fire alarms and other topics you do! Keep up the work!
Fort Bliss has these kinds of alarms. It's an EST Genesis speaker with an amber strobe, marked alert. Right next to it is an EST Genesis ceiling mount strobe marked fire. There were a lot of small voice evac panels scattered around the building. Very cool system.
They sound very similar to those crappy LRAD sirens. Except that little beep at the beginning. I've never heard an LRAD do that. It is pretty cool to see a mass notification system that includes sirens and indoor alarms, as I've never seen one in person and really want to. My college (from which I have now graduated) only had horn-strobes and a very outdated PA system.
The tone reminds me of my elementary school. Because the fire alarm system is tied in with the PA system. So every time the fire alarm goes off. The pa tone goes off on all of the pa speaker including the outdoor ones. So if we were outside and if the fire alarms went off we knew we would need to stop playing and line up to where we would stand outside doing fire drills.
Wow, those tones in the beginning really sound like Bell System MF tones! That whole system is really cool. It seems like it has a lot of well-thought-out features.
The military base near me also has this system but instead of wheelock, they use ceiling mount est genesis speaker strobes and for wall mount they have the est genesis alert/fire speaker strobe combo, the outside of every building has Edwards WG4WN-SVMHA speaker strobes
My high school has a simplex fire alarm system installed around the campus. My assistant principal told me before going to summer break that the school could be getting a fire alarm system upgrade. I asked him if I could have the old fire alarm equipment and pull stations and horn strobes and he said that he'll see if he can get some because it could be possible that the district would reuse most of them for other schools. I don't know if my high school could either get a voice evacuation system or just a regular fire alarm system.
@@thatvierkidCorrect. Today I went to a big gas station (Bucees) that opened in my state today with atleast 300 people inside. I noted a brand new Fire Lite Voice Evac system, as well as keys in the pull stations.
My concern is, we get too dependent on technology and stop using our own senses. The other issue I see with this is single point of failure, infrastructure. I'm not saying that its bad. What I'm saying is that we redundancy in emergency systems.
I don’t think it’s possible for there to be a horn/strobe of that unit, it must be either a speaker/strobe or a remote strobe tied to a speaker for it to work.
Not necessarily, normal siren systems communicate the emergency with different tones, while a military base will communicate via the command post. The lengths are also different, so the siren (always the same tone) will last 160 seconds in a real emergency and 30 seconds in a test.
Grant their is another system manly in schools and college called AND(Advanced networking Devices) they work the same but not only a message is played theirs a scrolling text that overrides the clock display until the signal is turned off
Do all speakers and notification devices activate at exactly the same time? I ask because it sounded like some of the outdoor speakers were triggering off one after the other. I also realise that sound echoes outside and I suspect maybe I was just hearing the acoustics of the sound echoing.
It’s not a fire alarm. Don’t confuse mass notification with fire alarms, they’re completely different. They could have been connected on the same circuit.
@FedPlayz2022 #pridechallenge #roadto50 #artist *-* but why is it on an ATI frame if it is an E-Class. The stickers have a similar color to the modern ATI siren stickers.
@@natestrains1166 Yea I just figured out it is indeed an ATI. ATIs have those blue dots on the center of the speakers and like you said, ECs have the ASC logos. E Classes don’t always have a windup and ATIs always beep before actually sounding. I think this thing could be on an ASC controller
Our once a month test of the Outdoor system has become Ignorable. The BIG Hit will be when Everyone's Cell Phones go off at the same time. THAT would do it. But there has Never been a "Test" of that.
Those are E classes. The voice and the tone give it away…unless it is an HPSS with an ASC controller. They both are the same thing tho but the E classes are better
Where was this video taken because I want to go and see the siren if I ever get an opportunity and take a video and the voice sound a bit like you pretty cool 😁😁😁😉😉😉🚨🚨🚨
It would be impractical to have the entire system wired for one town. It would also be time consuming to setup the system throughout a town. This type of system would most likely be on a campus. The system in this video is at a military base.
@@LogicDoesStuff ah okay it makes sense now. I was like but like why? 🤣 I suppose for a town, those emergency alerts on your phone would be as effective and easy to setup

Honestly the indoors alert system is interesting
I'm going to be living on a military base (with my family) full time soon so I'll hear this (or similar) a lot
the tests aren't that frequent so you should be good. At least until they do the yearly base-wide exercise

A lot of bases are phasing out those ATI giant voice towers, and are going to more reliable systems from either whelen or federal signal
Yeah because ATIs are fuckin junk
Pretty interesting. I'm thinking the alert horn strobes are on a panel that's directly tied to an ATI RTU?
I don’t think it’s possible for there to be a horn/strobe of that unit, it must be either a speaker/strobe or a remote strobe tied to a speaker for it to work.
@@alexgilbert2 That's what I meant.
The red fire alarms is just chilling, while the white fire alarms going off
The white ones are not fire alarms
@ oh
are the alarms different for each warning? ie active shooter, fire alarm, lighting warning, etc?
Not necessarily, normal siren systems communicate the emergency with different tones, while a military base will communicate via the command post. The lengths are also different, so the siren (always the same tone) will last 160 seconds in a real emergency and 30 seconds in a test.
For my base, it seems to be the same. It does alert every Friday for tests and it did alert for a tornado that we had a couple months ago

That siren in the background is an ATI HPSS 16

No that is an ATI

What type of control panel is used in this video?
Wheelock E70 speaker strobes for the mass notification system, and wheelock exceders for the fire alarm system
This video made me interested in tornado sirens again
Awesome video man!
By the way this outdoor siren is an ATI HPSS 16
Hi how can I connect these with my Microsoft teams account so that I don't miss any important notifications?
Do u ever get 🌪s
Where is this located and tested?
That looks awesome! I wish I had one because I like to prank my family a lot lol.
I wouldn’t do that, the E70 can only do like 2 watts so you wouldn’t get far..plus you need an amplifier to use a speaker strobe I believe
When is Weekly Test at
What Time
What date
Is the control panel with all the alert messages from Silent Knight?
Giant Voice is one of the comms right?
Was that a safe path system if so then that thing is a beast
woah! The ATI actually turned on!!
Great video
ATI Controls is the one that control these (Siren: ATI HPPS 16)
this brings me back to the fun days stationed in texas goodfellow AFB. again. fun times. simpler times XD
Hoping the right folks have control of this.
🙏🙏🙏 coming soon to a city near you!!!! Please God we need a miracle!!!!

ATI use E Class tone, no wind-up
Did They Pre-Record the Siren Tone on the Wheelock Safepath Controlling the System? It Really Sounds Like It. Cool Video!
Likely not. I went to a top secret control center and it was manually said. I can see why you thought it was a bot but it’d not.

What Siren Is That
Is an ATI HPSS 16
Tyndall AFB?
Im neer there!!
S.E.R how can I wire a fci ms 6 with a system sensor P4W 4 wire horn strobe
Wire the wires going from the pull station to one circuit on the alarm, and use jumpers to the other circuit to achieve full operation of the device.
Wheelock alarms and an ASC E-Class running the same tone? Interesting.
They may be connected to the same circuit I’m guessing
That's an ATI HPSS-16.
In my opinion it’s more earaching than the wii crash sound
So it can be used for a tornado warning ⛈🌪🚨
On military they’re used for all emergencies, that includes tornados

Not every building will have these mass notification systems. It's not often that you'll see one of these unless you work at a place with a mns.
