Lo, and Behold! It's a ceiling mount Genesis speaker!
Here we have the Edwards/EST (all part of the same company) GC-S7 remote speaker...the ceiling mount counterpart of the Genesis line of speakers. Like the wall-mount cousin, it still seems to live up to the "Genesis" line; thin and aesthetically pleasing, and easy to install. Not as easy as a mounting bracket system, but easy enough...it still fits in a standard 4x4 backbox, no extension ring required!
In this demo, I demonstrate...well...the speaker capabilities. Not only do Io play a few messages from the speaker, but also hook up a microphone to the amplifier for an "open mic" sort of thing. This simulates the "paging" capabilities on a typical voice evac system (essentially; a fancy PA system for emergencies).
DISCLAIMER:
1: It is a FELONY to pull a fire alarm in public to falsely report a fire (i.e. "Just for fun"). A fire alarm in a public building should only be pulled if there is actually a fire or other emergency. However, this is being activated in a controlled and legal environment, an enthusiast's test setup. No fire departments were called or unnecessary panic was aroused when activating the alarm.
2: The voice evac messages heard in the video are demos from the companies they come from. They are being used to simply demonstrate the speaker of the alarm.
Pulling alarm without authorization from proper authorities or pulling it without the intentions of reporting a fire will cause unnecessary panic in the building and a fine and/or prison sentence issued (depending on your area). Therefore, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LEGAL DAMAGES DONE. These are your decisions, not mine.

Well I appreciate you for making this video because I have horn-strobe ceiling mount and horn ceiling mount at my school in classrooms,bathrooms,in the library, and in the music room. and in the halls there are wall mounts without strobes and horns and horns and strobes.

is the siren/message (first one) Edwards, or is it Simplex? I think the open mic option is cool.

we have those installed on our campus combined with Genesis horn/strobes. Oddly enough, the speakers dont use voice evac but rather sound like a genesis horn. Its true, the horns around our campus do not sound, only the strobes.
@NewEnglandElevators
@NewEnglandElevators 8 лет назад
+KigoNico Are you referring to this particular speaker or the ceiling mount version of the horn/strobe? They are VERY similar in appearance. If you do have speakers like these, that's the first I heard of a voice evac system replicating a Genesis tone, and playing over the speakers. Additionally, you must have Genesis remote strobes on your campus. They use the same exact shell as the horn/strobe as they still have the holes for the piezo's sound to pass through. Not sure why they would do it this way.
@KigoNico
@KigoNico 8 лет назад
+NewEnglandElevators Its this particular speaker. And the ceiling mounts do not have strobes, just speakers/horns. The wall mounts are most likely remote strobes. The campus I attend is pretty old and most of the original alarms were replaced with EST sometime ago because the remote strobes have the retrofit cover in certain locations where perhaps old alarms used to be. I cant recall the original system, but if I had to guess, it would be Simplex or an older Edwards system. Canada likes to use American Alarms, but we do have quite a bit of bells over horns.

I have an alarm system speaker with the alarm board and the speaker is similar to your speaker. Music sounds crystal clear but tinny.
@NewEnglandElevators
@NewEnglandElevators 4 года назад
Yeah, these speakers mainly meant for voice can sound tinny for music...not that they sound horrible, though. Oddly enough, some older Simplex speakers and System Sensor speakers tend to have better bass response, which makes them sound better for music. Good observation!

LAX airport has a section with these (with fire lettering), oddly Exceder strobes and horn strobes on the walls, wall and ceiling genesis speaker strobes, round ceiling mount integrity speaker strobes and some other Wheelock and Edwards devices (like ceiling Exceders or ceiling E90s) in stores.

If it's a copyright issue I would say just change the voice itself but leave the message words intact. I've heard some simplex systems use the Edwards message of "ATTENTION ATTENTION! An emergency has been reported in this building. Please cease operations and leave the building utilizing the nearest exit or fire exit stairway. DO NOT ISE ELEVATORS! I repeat...DO NOT USE ELEVATORS!"

@Dave-ji1hv
@Dave-ji1hv 9 лет назад
what is your amplifier setup? meaning what is your amplifier and how do you have it setup with the mic and other accessories.
@NewEnglandElevators
@NewEnglandElevators 9 лет назад
Dave For this setup, I am using a Pyle Home PCM20A amplifier. It's a 40w amplifier that can output a 70v signal, a 25v signal, and even a typical 8 ohm signal. The amplifier has a line level input, which I can hook up to an Mp3 player of some sort (iPod, etc), and two microphone inputs, allowing me to talk into the speaker. Not a bad amplifier if you ask me.
@Dave-ji1hv
@Dave-ji1hv 9 лет назад
***** what are you running it off of? 25v 70v or 8ohm?
@NewEnglandElevators
@NewEnglandElevators 9 лет назад
Dave This speaker requires a 70v input to run. As such, I am using the 70v input to power the speaker. Many other fire alarm speakers are designed to run on either 25v or 70v, not necessarily 8 ohms.

@NewEnglandElevators

I have thought about it since it's been a while since I've done something like this (nearly 4 years, yikes), and still am obtaining some devices here and there. Best answer I can say is; "I'm not sure," considering my life is so busy now with other obligations, pursuits/interests, etc. Maybe someday, no promises though.

​@@firealarm2903_ Yes, I happen to be one of the ones that have lost interest as well and drifted away from alarms. However, even though i no longer make videos, I don't feel I've completely gone away from alarms; I try to still follow up with what's going on in the alarm world, and still do stuff with alarms every so often...just not as much as I used to. I even still interact with the community on here from time to time and via one of the various fire alarm Discord servers, the forums, etc.

You're right, technically it is the case out in the field (or the appropriate Wheelock speakers authorized for use with Simplex systems). In this case, it was something to demonstrate with the speaker.
