Does a 4010 give out FWR?

Want to know because if it does I won’t get one

No it’s addressable if it did give out FWR it would destroy the modules and Na’s. I don’t know if your being funny or serious. I Also want you to look at our starter guide just to be safe. I’m not sure if you are experienced because I can’t tell.

No. All modern Simplex panels output filtered DC power. In addition, all modern Simplex notification appliances will only work with filtered DC power, as FWR current will gradually cause them to malfunction and they will eventually cease to operate.

ccs46, if you are just going to cause drama by placing your suspicions on every person who asks a question, then please leave the answers to others.

Ok I didn’t know if he was being serious or not.

I am very experienced just not with addressable panels I would appreciate you be respectful when replying to a simple question. I would not make a comment like that if I was answering a question

Addressable has nothing to do with it. You don’t have to use simplex notification appliances with simplex panels, and you don’t have to use addressable simplex notification appliances with them… I’m pretty sure the 4010 came out well before addressable notification appliances did anyway, so your reasoning behind why it couldn’t produce FWR is flawed to begin with.

Simplex 4010 are Filtered DC( There horns die on FWR)

I was being respectful… Some people come on here ask simple questions. It seems so simple to me but may not to others. I’m sorry if I offended you. And Chris that was a typo I meant even if it wasn’t addressable.

I in no way moderate or create rules on this forum, but I just want to make a point that seems to be neglected on this site lately, and that is that only users with adequate knowledge about the subject should be answering questions of any kind. Many professionals have appeared on the forum to ask technical questions, only to have a “guessed” or incorrect answer, which could potentially put lives in risk. This should have nothing to do with experience on the site, age, etc. Simply knowledge. So if you do not know the correct answer, do not know how to properly explain it, or do not plan on answering professionally and respectfully then please do not answer the initial question.
Thank you.

Fully agreed. If you identify yourself to be a fire alarm novice, it may be best to stick to more of the hobbyist topics and discussions, or if you want to help, at least provide a source from where you got the information.

Let’s not forget that this is life safety equipment that we’re dealing with here and that an incorrect guess to a question may result in actual, in-use equipment not preforming the tasks that it’s supposed to.

I may be a novice but I still know that the 4010 gives out Filtered DC. :stuck_out_tongue:

Is all of this drama really necessary for a simple yes or no question? This isn’t supposed to be a website for people getting in fights, making accusations against users and calling them names. I think that we all need to remember some of these rules:

[quote] P13.* Do not post any information that you think may be false, or actually is false. This can potentially cause a dangerous situation for a user. P14.* This is not the place to have personal arguments / fights. If you have something against another user, do it elsewhere. [/quote]
