Is there a list of all possible Rauland Telecenter ICS tones you can choose? I'm talking about the ones where you can dial #3[tone]* and it plays that tone selected over the intercom. I recently got a hold of all the Rauland Telecenter ICS and ICS2 tones in .wav format. There are 9 Time Tones and I...

Hey guys! I was thinking over tornado safety procedures at my school. I realized that they use the auditorium and stage as designated shelters for the fine arts wing of the school. That got me thinking - is it possible to design an auditorium (seating about 600 persons) to effectively shelter a larg...

It really does look like it came out nicely! Wonderful job!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I'm curious, how does your administration decide when to do drills? I know my school loves to do them at the last minute and sometimes at very insensible times...

Hi guys! Remember how I kept asking you all if you had any fire alarm sound samples I could use? Well, that was for science fair, and I'm pleased to announce the results of my science fair project, which experimented the effectiveness of different fire alarm signals. ABSTRACT Fire alarm signals are ...

Any relevant manuals to the house (HVAC, security, appliances, and smoke alarms) should be left behind with the new homeowner. Any other relevant notes can also be left behind such as set codes and where the control panel for the system is.

Hello! I’m working on a musical production for my school. Unfortunately, we have a stage door that slams shut and makes a very loud bang. It’s a hassle trying to keep the backstage area quiet during show times and we would like to get this fixed. Is there a way to slow the door closer down so that i...

Do you have a wireless receiver set up and programmed on the NX-8 system? If so, what type is it? It can either be an 148RF keypad (LCD screen with a wireless receiver built in) or a separate wireless receiver within the system.

'nother one 'cause why not? Y'see those mini-horns they put in hotel rooms? People sometimes mistake these for security cameras and put tape over them, being persuaded that it's a security camera or a microphone. I've never seen this in person. but for sure I recall someone talked about this on the...

We have yet to adopt it. I'm hoping they're going to do some more reliable alternative if that ever gets implemented. That being said, we have had people attempt arson at our school which did require a full evacuation. Luckily, we do have a verification of another school bell they manually activate ...

Is the red light in Korea solely and visual fire alarm box indicator light, or does it also flash when a fire condition is reported? I know that Taiwan has their lights flash if a fire alarm goes off to signal occupants to evacuate. Cool systems! Do you have any media on smoke alarms? Here's a video...

My science teacher thought that the ceiling mount genesis speaker/strobe was a smoke detector. I wasn't super surprised at that one though - most science rooms are supposed to have smoke detectors, and the building designers coincidentally decided to mount a notification appliance to the ceiling. I ...

Contact the plant engineer and the administrator in charge of building management. They usually get it fixed in relatively a short time (because it's a school). An email and some photographic evidence should do. If you're unable to obtain photographic evidence, CC your teacher and have her follow up...

My school has had an RTU Duct Detector disabled for over two months. It's set as a supervisory zone so I'm not exactly sure why it would be disabled for such a long period of time. So I have a few questions: Why would an RTU duct detector be disabled for so long? I would understand a day or two, but...
