EST Genesis Chime/Strobe Fire Alarm Test

[macbookrock711]

how do you wire them ilke that?

[msj191961]

I was in a nursing home in Rockford that had these. They are so small! :)

[MrWill1985]

To my understanding I dont think the noise restrictions apply for government buildings. I work in a state office and we have horn strobes in our entire complex even in the offices. Hospitals and nursing homes do have noise restrictions. And some school systems I believe Elementary schools have noise restrictions. And I suspect Baltimore County is now days one of them.

[MrWill1985]

I think EST may stand for Edwards Systems technology but Im not sure. I know the E in EST stands for Edwards.

[KingMacintosh]

Couldn't these also be a good alternative for the usual strobe only in bathrooms?

[coffeeandsugar20]

These are used and installed in locations where the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction says it's permitted.

[lckyboyo]

my high school had these alarms everywhere, but ours had a horn set on code 3 instead

[lockenthusiast]

awesome!!

[bissell1060]

not as loud as the as and ns

[Mortltd]

will there be a system test 17? anyway i am asking you on this video because some cannot have comments

[ProwerBot]

I want one of these so much!! =[

[ProwerBot]

I doubt it. You can't really tell the difference between this chime and genesis horn strobe unless it's running.

[jriveraiv]

This chime is more pleasant

[adavis155]

Soccerdude7330 rocks

[Puppykinz129]

the chime sounded cool

[TJE4210]

I didn't know that Genises (sp) could sound like this. The ones at my old school were just like this and they were on Code 3. LOUD

[coffeeandsugar20]

This is a special version of the Geneses.

[joshattack1997]

This alarm has nice sounds

[Chaoticultima]

i love this fire alarm better then any of the horns ^^

[msnbc87]

yeah the horns are annoying

[coffeeandsugar20]

They're not supposed to be pleasant.

[cubsrule2040]

I wish the GEC3s at my high school were on code-3 chime rather on code-3 mechanical horn or whoop

[DigitalEagleInc]

Hospitals, Nursing Homes, Gov buildings, anywheres where sudden loud noise is nost desireable

[soccerdude7330]

Exactly :)

[zachmamaw]

@soccerdude7330 is it loud

[MrWill1985]

@DigitalEagleInc I think there may be noise restrictions in hospitals and nursing homes. Government buildings. I dont know the situation. But I did once see a Youtube video of a fire alarm test in a hospital and the hospital had Chime strobes except in the boiler room and the boiler room had horn/strobes. The rest of the building didnt. I wish Elementary schools were restricted from Horn strobes to. Government buildings I think still use horn strobes as I work in a MD State office that has them.

[goingcommando6]

the hospital my dad went to had simplex voice evacs in it

[jackviolet21]

It's Edwards Genesis not EST Genesis

[soccerdude7330]

Well, the box and alarm both say "EST Genesis" on it.

[firealarmfreak529]

Aren't EST and Edwards the same company?

[coffeeandsugar20]

Yes, they are.

You can say it either way. EST or Edwards.

Just like some idiots say "YOU SAY IT SEVEN ZERO ZERO T. NOT SEVEN THOUSAND TWO T. GET IT RIGHT DAMMIT"

[soccerdude7330]

LMFAO!!

[cubsrule2040]

How come with the 7002T, most people say "seven thousand 2 T" and not the latter pronunciation?

[password1567]

Its because thats how it was officially supposed to be pronounced.

[pivotous]

that's what the E is in EST. EDWARDS System Technologies

[pivotous]

uh, sorry cubsrule2040... anyways, the reason why the 7002T is said as (seven thousand two-T) is because that's the way Wheelock advertised it. the idiots that say seven zero zero two T should go to Wheelock's headquarters to get a free slap in the face.

[cubsrule2040]

NewAgeServerAlarm and I say seven zero zero 2 T, and we can say it any way we want.

[coffeeandsugar20]

And so can other people.

[newandused1998]

sounds like the noise a car makes when you put the keys in.

[thesimsgamer13]

R there just strobe ones??? and could u make it so only the strobe is going with out the big panel???????!?!?!??!

[firealarmfreak529]

Yep, all you need is a power supply (sometimes an old computer power supply would work. Fire alarms are not that hard to wire. Some are pretty loudthough. You have a wire form your power supply to your pull station, pull station to alarm, alarm to next alarm,, to next alarm, to smoke detector and so on. The wire starts at the power source and goes from device to device. You can use standard speaker wire from a hardware store. I use copper wire, watch some of my vids, its in there.

[thesimsgamer13]

Were do u get these????? n what would you recomend for a 2 bedroom, 1 bath home???

[firealarmfreak529]

Probably a horn/strobe in the main living place, a strobe in the bathtroom, and maybe chimes in the bedrooms. it's pretty much whatever you want. Anything will work, as long as it has power and initiating devices (eg. smoke detectors, heat detectors, etc. A panel is not required, but if you want one, look on ebay. A panel helps code the system into code three or continous horn. It also silences the alarm and resets the system. Contact me if you need anymore help. Hope this helps too.

[thesimsgamer13]

Ok thanks!!!

[thesimsgamer13]

And for this one, can you change the sound or did u have to buy this one like this and how loud would u think this is like a regular smoke alarm??? and so u need a strobe/light, a wire to the pull station and then what???

[andrewg9501]

i love these alarms

[shanewash1993]

what dose the componets look like inside the genesis chime?

[pivotous]

it's kinda cute.

[numbuh4heartstart]

and about the size of a deck of cards!

[firealarmfreak529]

What kind of power source do you have it hooked up to in this vid?

[Capt421]

does this horn strobe have different tone settings

[soccerdude7330]

Nope.

[jjinc24]

The AS seems louder!

[coffeeandsugar20]

Well, yeah.

The AS is a horn. This is a chime.

[carexpertandy]

that one sounds weird

[pspfreak1000]

i didfn't know they made that sound?
