 ==== FACP ====
+The building is protected by a Simplex 4001 conventional fire alarm system. The panel location is unknown. The system coding is likely continuous.
-The fire alarm control panel is a Simplex 4004. It is not original, as it was installed around 1994. The annunciator at the entrance has four zones and is Simplex, which indicates that the system is a 4004. The main FACP is not visible, it's probably in a locked room.

+All audible notification appliances are Simplex 2901-9720 motor bells (6" gong). The ones in the gift shop are mounted on Wheelock VLPS-24 strobe plates (1.5cd), installed in 1994.
-The notification appliances are Simplex 2901-9720 motor bells, but on Wheelock WS strobe plates (seen on the Wheelock 46T-G6-24-WS vibrating bell/strobe), or maybe the original Wheelock bells on the strobe plates quit working and were replaced with 2901-9720 bells.
