Hence electronic circuits can be designed for the fire based alarms
and they provide very high efficiency and can be used for the security
reasons. Early fire detection is best achieved by the installation and
maintenance of fire detection equipment in all rooms and areas of the
house or building. The various circuits described in the paper can be
used.
Types of Fire Alarm Signals :
1 TROUBLE:
Local sounding (beeping) on FACP and Annunciators.
No horn/strobes sounding or flashing.
Low battery, smoke detector removed, ground fault, open horn circuit, etc.
Alarm Tech responds .
2 SUPERVISORY:
Local sounding (beeping) on FACP and Annunciators .
No horn/strobes sounding or flashing.
Sprinkler valve closed, duct detector activated*, low-air on pre-action system .
Fire Department responds .
3 ALARM:
All horn/strobes sounding and flashing .
Building occupants to evacuate.
Smoke detector, manual pull, waterflow , duct detector, or heat detector
activated .
Fire Department responds.
Fire Alarm System Types:
1 Conventional:
2 Addressable:
Easier to install.
More system status information at the panel and central station.
Input /Output programming much more flexible .
Usually much more room available to expand.

Several main functions:
They alert building occupants to a fire condition and the need to evacuate.
Fire alarm systems may also shut down electrical, air handling equipment or
special process operations, and they may be used to initiate automatic
suppression systems.
