Hello so my apartment complex is having a drill next month. I was told they are replacing the simplex 4903 alarm in the community room and they are willing to give it to me when it’s offline. Anyways the strobe works but not the horn part how easy is it to fix the horn here’s a pic of the alarm
That’s a smartsync device. All you need to do to get the horn working is buy a smartsync module.
From what I understand, the alarm is being replaced because the horn doesn’t work. Not sure how a SmartSync module would help with that
Never mind, I thought the whole building was getting an upgrade. But if it’s just the one, it probably doesn’t work
simplex sells the horn circuitry alone. you could try that.
Provided the horn doesn’t work, it could be something as simple as a loose wire. In which case, easy and (probably) free to fix. If not? You’ll need to get a replacement horn. You can find just the horn on ebay, but for the cost you may benefit from buying yourself a complete horn-strobe https://www.ebay.com/itm/304784664088?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=tlxidvwvrka&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=qbQR26niT4m&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
So since I’m getting it next month will it just be the mounting or will the horn be included with the mount they just said the horn didn’t work and needs to be replaced so I’m assuming I’m getting the innards behind the mounting in the picture
just get the circuitry for it. simplex sells it.
