System Specifications (1986-present)

FACP

The hotel is protected by a Simplex 4120 networked fire alarm system. Both nodes are Simplex 4100U conventional panels, the main node is in the CACF room and the other is in the main entrance vestibule. It is part of the mall’s Simplex 4120 network, but operates separately. The system is equipped with the FUI displays, and equipped with voice-evacuation. The alert signal is a 20BPM chime over the speakers, and the alarm coding is continuous on the bells.
The 4100U panels replaced Simplex 4100+ panels in 2006, which in turn replaced the original Simplex 2120 panels in 1999.
