The Fire Panel - Documentation Site is Live

Announcements
1

Some of you may know that a popular site for finding documentation on fire / life safety equipment has been down for quite some time. I have gathered up every alarm PDF I could possibly find and loaded them up somewhere for everyone to find and search. I threw this together today, it’s simple and honestly isn’t great, but I wanted to get something out there for people to find the PDFs they’re looking for in a somewhat easy way: https://docs.thefirepanel.com/

There is something MUCH better in the works, but that will take some time. When that is ready, it will be a much bigger announcement than this.

Hey Zach! Is it possible to submit documents to the new Files archive? I have documents to the IRC-3 and also misc Grinnell stuff.

Not yet, but it’s in the works. If you want to send them directly to me, please do. I’ll happily get them added.

Help! I am looking for a PROGRAMMING manual for the Kidde/Thorne (from the 1980’s) and now called Grinnell fire alarm panel Model KDR-1000 and have not found a copy. I have seen the instruction/installation sheet and specs but our electrician needs more. I have already contacted Kidde without success; Thorne is no longer in business. Before I contact Grinnell, I thought ask here. Any suggestions?
