List your homemade fire alarm panel specs

I’m actually working on a fire alarm panel in Minecraft Bedrock on the Nintendo Switch rn

Not anymore, the redstone is messy, I will build a better one

Speaking of Minecraft fire alarm panels
I am going to work on a much better one over the coming days

For now, I’m going to hold off on the MW-2400 and work on a smaller project.

Loganetics MP-2R24

  • 2 zones
  • 2 NACs
  • 24 Volts Filtered DC

This panel is VERY basic, it doesn’t even have a microcontroller! It has very few features, but it will also be the cheapest fire panel I have produced. So far, I plan for both NACs to run on continuous, with NAC 2 being non-silenceable.
The PCB is pretty small as well. It does not need a cabinet, because the cabinet costs a lot more to make than the actual circuit board. I plan for the price to be $45 with no cabinet, but the price for a cabinet has not yet been determined because I’m having a problem with the lock company.

I’ll keep y’all updated!
Any questions?

Is the panel relay controlled? Or Solid State? I’m pretty excited for this!

It’s fully relay based with a few more electronics to make it more advanced than my first relay panel. I may limit current on the NAC’s but I wanna see if there is a way to limit current without fuses.

Small update to the iFS1000 interface

Well this idea really fell off lol. My current panel in progress is the CE-4224, a 4 zone conventional FACP with two NACs and optional card support. It’s more compact than the original CE-2224 but uses the same latching relay setup.

Huh.. That sucks.. Could you fix the relay issue?

I know im late to replying. But here ar emy specs. My panel is also conventional, not adressable. It is also mainly relay based except for coder unit, that uses an arduino.

-This panel has a possible output of 9amps @ 25.5VDC on the NACs (even including the expander cards

-120VAC to duel secondary 29VAC and 27 VAC transformer

-2X (3 if expander transformer added) full bridge rectifier

-two (3 if power expander installed) DC stepdown. One (two if power expander installed) 26VDC and one to 6VDC with battery charging capabilities

-100AH 24VDC battery (capability)

-The main board has 2 onboard SLC loops, class A or class B.

-It has 2 alarm relays. (2 amp @ 120VAC
15 amp @ 30VDC

-A connection to residential wired smoke detectors

-24 VDC IN terminal from others panels 24VDC Resetable AUX outputs so you can reset the panel with other panels.

-A NO relay contact to connect a zone from another panel to trip the other panel.

-4 Onboard NACs (class-A or class-B)

-Common controls (reset, silence, alarm silence, drill)

-common LEDs (trouble, AC power, Alarm, Supervisory, 22 Zone LEDs 4 supervisory LEDs)

-onboard coder (codes all onboard NACs the same. But not expander cards)

-2X expander card connection points. (Uses ribbon cables)

(Next few points are from expander cards)

-2 possible 10 additional zone expander cards (DOES NOT WORK WITH PARALLEL)

-2 possible (10 if connected in parallel) 5 NAC expander cards

2 possible (10 if connected in parallel) 5 NO & NC relay card

-Auxiliary Output (this can also work in parallel with any card, even if you are at the limit)

-Dialer card (does not connect to the same expander card slots as it is more complicated)

-zone cards support both class-A and Class-B

-NAC cards support class-A and class-B
