I don’t see how: it’s not an AI-generated image, only AI-enhanced, & I’ve seen the supposed original before & it looks basically the same (just blurrier/lower-res of course).
Fire sign is turned “led”
Well so what? It may have that kind of pattern on it in real life even if it’s not LED, & it’s otherwise based off an actual photograph.
I took some more photos today at a doctors office:
The main notification appliances were either Siemens SL2MTSWR-F multi-tone horn/strobes, or SL2SPSWR-F speaker/strobes. I would lean more towards the horn/strobes, as they are spaced quite far apart from each other.
The Simplex detector may be left over from the last system. Interestingly, it still has power. I really hope it’s not connected to the SLC, though, as that would just short the SLC if there is a fire and that detector goes into alarm. Hopefully the system would still work due to Siemens’ class-X SLC loops.

I spy a rare Soundolier P910 speaker in the photo with the L series speaker strobe

Looks like my image lol
Was the 4002 ever used with that annunciator?

It didn’t, wouldn’t you think Firecom would stick with the same style?
How do you know: have you seen whatever panel that is in real life? No one has as far as I know (except the person who took that photograph of course but we have no idea who they are). In any case though, it’s still based off an actual photograph, & that should be fine (heck if anything why don’t you stop complaining about someone simply attempting to make that photograph look nicer & better & just refer to the original if it bothers you that much?).
Alright…
A friend of mine says that it’s actually an Edwards/EST IRC-3 instead.
@Tesla_railfaning Could you tell us where you got that higher-res photo from? (since to me the original looks way too low-res & blurry for any AI to enhance to the extent that the higher-res one is like)
Your friend is wrong, here is an image of the IRC-3 (which would be FAST/EST, was never made under Edwards)

It’s an IRC-3. I own a few of them and can confirm.
The top switch panel below the FIRE strobe faceplate is a SAN annunciator set containing SHO-4 switch annunciators. The one below it is another SHO-4 set with a SAN-COM control unit. Below that is a set of SWU-8 switch controls.
The second panel set contains another SANCOM, SWU-8 and SHO-4 set with an RMDP-1N main controller behind the guy’s head. As for the fire faceplate itself, they’re custom built for the cabinet I believe.

What does the rmdp-1n look like, also Does anyone have pictures of a Firecom 8500? - #11 by Wei_Huan
Highlighted picture displays the writing and LCD display
Displayed here is from an official EST document also showing the same RMDP-1N
Thank you for providing the original link to the post containing the supposed 8500. I don’t think I’ve seen this before.
I stand corrected, very cool to know that setup is a thing
Definitely a custom setup, Usually their taller cabinet is the CB45 which is their biggest cabinet size with a 45.5” vertical rack space.
Those panels can be quite the monster, especially their ATPC amplifier racks seen here:

It is your image. I’ll credit you. If you look at SafeTech’s Test # 73, you will see one on a 4002. I also know of at least one system that was near me that was either a 2001-8001, or a 4002 that had the red version.

Good to know, the only reason I confirm it was because of a tech who said it looked like one he had seen before so I wasn’t entirely sure either which probably was not very smart idea to jump to conclusions after looking back at what I said. Firecom has been a long time Edward’s distributor and partner and services those systems too so it probably has something to do with the possibility of a similar design and or why he said it was one.
Most NYC Class E systems looked pretty similar back then speaking to other old NYC techs, some left Firecom to start their own companies and brands and made very similar looking systems, those brands later got bought out by Firecom.
Could you send that manual btw?
