FACP

The store is protected by a Mircom FX-2000 addressable fire alarm system. The panel location is unknown. The system runs Mircom's CLIP addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.

Annunciators

The annunciator is a Mircom RAX-LCD, located right next to the main entrance. It is blocked by flyers and other merchandise normally, which is a fire code violation. It also does not have LED annunciation, which is another code violation, as Canadian Fire Codes require LED Annunciation on all panels and annunciators.

The main notification appliances are are System Sensor "SpectrAlert Advance" PC2RA (red, ceiling mount, 2-wire) horn/strobes on the ceiling in the sales floor, set on temporal. The other notification appliances are Mircom "Select-A-Horn/Strobe" FHS-340R horn/strobes, set on broadband, temporal.
