Previous System Specifications
Panel
The original panel was an EST 6616 from 1996. It was replaced in 2017 with the current Simplex 4007ES.
Notification Appliances
The original alarms were Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bells, again from 1996. Fun fact: One of the bells was wired to a doorbell as well as the panel, and would ring softly to indicate a delivery. Possibly it was on 12V. It is unknown if the current signal there goes off for deliveries.
