I always loved your videos!! I wish I could do the same work as you do. I’m an enthusiast who loves his alarms! Hope to see more videos soon!! Have a good night
Great video 😀👍👍 Simplex is very interesting, to say the least. I’ve been Having very mixed opinions about them, the last few years. I miss the easier days of conventional systems!
That's pretty neat. They don't use the addressable TrueAlert signals in this part of Massachusetts, not even in Boston. Even if the Simplex system is addressable (and it typically is) they always go with conventional TrueAlert signals (typically with the multi-candela strobes). I think it's because the AHJ for this area doesn't allow use of addressable fire alarm signals.
The test tone that plays when you to the self test with the magnet on the Truealert ES Speaker Strobes needs to be changed to a 1,000 Hz test tone because the horn like test tone could scare the inspectors/testers as they're inches away from the speaker that makes the horn sound
The one second loud sound is the speaker confirming audible operation. The clicking sound you hear is just the strobe flashing - all devices make that noise.
@@Emmisullivan14 When the panel operator wants to broadcast a message to all the speakers in the building, they'll select that button, take out the microphone at the panel, press the button on the microphone, and usually after a brief tone (usually a chime sound) plays over the speakers alerting building occupants of a message about to be broadcast, the person operating the microphone will speak into it and the message will be heard throughout the entire building. The panel could also have messages programmed into it to be broadcast instead of a live message.
It plays that tone so the speaker can be tested for efficiency. the “testing channel x, device y” method is for initiating devices (pull stations, smoke and heat sensors) it wouldn’t make sense if they used that method for the self test feature.
sounds like a low pitched advance.... when i change the pitch of them on roblox it sounds like that. Also, i would love to hear those things while you walked away, the reverb would be cool.
In a sense, but it's still up to smoke, heat, & flame detectors located throughout the building to detect the fire, the alarms just notify building occupants of an emergency.

The alarms sounded like they were spitting. Great video!

Test tone sounds like a spectralert advance
It sounds like an air compressor 😂
Reminds me of the "laser" tone on the System Sensor MAEH.
@@mikebode7560 what's a lazer tone?
*laser*
Max Dutiel it sounds like a dieing one being powered with filtered DC not AC
The test tone sounds like a system sensor l series
It really does that’s the crazy part
Agreed
Great video 😀👍👍

Thanks for viewing!
Yay finally getting to see them in action!

Why does the TrueAlert make that weird sound? Why does it audibly click?
The one second loud sound is the speaker confirming audible operation. The clicking sound you hear is just the strobe flashing - all devices make that noise.
And what does All Speakers Talk mean on some Simplex panels?

Each speaker turns on when self-test is initiated. The sounds you are hearing is the audio feedback as each device is polled.
@Brandon 268-735 The tones/messages are generated by the audio circuits from the panel, not the alarm itself.
What kind of these strobes are they chime strobes horn high pitched three tone I don't like that sound. Do most strobes are horn strobes high pitched?
Test tone sounds like SCP-079 hacked into the voice evac system.
Question how does the magnet activate the fire alarm like that and does it work like that if anyone went up to that same fire alarm and did that
Is that test tone programmed into each speaker/strobe, or is it broadcast through the audio line of the system?
Its an audio supervision tone originating from the panel.
It plays that tone so the speaker can be tested for efficiency. the “testing channel x, device y” method is for initiating devices (pull stations, smoke and heat sensors) it wouldn’t make sense if they used that method for the self test feature.
Thoose simplex horn strobe es can be tested one by one with a magnet
Safetech where have you been? You didn't upload any of videos
What kind of True Alerts are those? I've never seen those before
Jessica Howe speaker/strobes
It's the new TrueAlert ES alarm system. They sound different from the original TrueAlert.
It's the Truealert ES speaker strobe.
49SVC TrueAlert ES
Looks like SP strobe.
little ceasers arena in detroit have those alarms
Do have truestart analyzer testing videos.
Unfortunately not as that is all done during initial commissioning. Not sure how many in our branch have the tool.
@@safetech
Thank you for your relay.
Do you have any simplex MX panel testing infirmations.
Why do they have that sound and not the EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE of the regular TrueAlert horns
WillardCrafto
That's only the self-test tone.
sounds like a low pitched advance.... when i change the pitch of them on roblox it sounds like that. Also, i would love to hear those things while you walked away, the reverb would be cool.
@@noxious_nights why are you replying to a 7 month old comment telling at me clown cfcbe
@@noxious_nights and I'm a real alarm guy with alarms in real life not just on roblox so got a problem?
@@noxious_nights Its honestly nothing. People have different hobbies and interests. Not everyone on roblox has alarms in real life.
No to loud are they chime strobes?
@@brandonbockman3454these are speakers but I think the chimes might have a similar design
I have never see those alarms that make those sounds and tested with a magnet
Cool! That's helpful for us all!
Also, at least we can manually test it instead of letting technology do all the work.
I was here before the chaos
Are they the chime strobes?
Speaker strobes.
Great video!!
Great video!
Thanks for viewing!
That’s super cool!!
I noticed some spectralert classics had the red led as well
Good lord, that test tone will be bound to ring some eardrums...
1:49 man that sounds horrible also that sounds nothing like a true alert
I think it's just a test tone. Those are speakers.
It's not supposed to
I love your fire alarm
OMG THAT SCARED ME SO BAD 1:57
Hai, This sound is NFPA approve
this is testing purpose only..
That tone made me shit my pants
What's the self test for
THEY ARE BASICALLY Commercial smoke alarms
In a sense, but it's still up to smoke, heat, & flame detectors located throughout the building to detect the fire, the alarms just notify building occupants of an emergency.
Looks like if the alarms are allergic to the magnet
Or saying PUT THAT AWAY AND DONT U DARE TOUCH ME WITH THAT
Nice 👍
Thanks for viewing!
That prob sound so annoying on continueous
It said 28 seconds ago when I got here...
Nice
now thats a rare alarm
Which* :3
Gray video
Volume warning would've been nice lol.
It's a fire alarm.. ain't no volume warning 😂😂😂🤣
