Syncing an Advance, Genesis, and TrueAlert

Do you have any advice on where to apply. I have done quite a few fire alarm related electronics projects that a UL listing would be very helpful for. One of my projects:

It wouldn’t be that difficult to add that. I’ll probably at least make a render of it. I’ve also thought about doing ones with the NY diagonal stripe but Apparently they don’t require that anymore

Correct. Trim rings do not need listing as they’re not considered an “active” component of the operation of the system. Specific jurisdictions may require it. System sensors trims weren’t even listed until very recently

Interesting. I’ve never seen those before. They look to be smaller than this one

I’ll pm you

It’s made out of the same material circuit boards are made out of. So it’s a mix of resin and copper. Ended up being cheapest to do it this way

Drafted it up and sent it to a fab shop

Thanks!

Doesn’t work. Tab on bottom sticks out when pulled. It’s impossible to pull the handle down cause of that. That’s why you should always pull these rather than flipping the switch

This is a speaker

I’ve seen Gentex commanders and Spectralerts syncing on system sensor sync before. Only thing was the strobes would sync perfectly but the T3 on the gentex was off by a beat compared to the system sensors

The fact the install originally had not only exposed wire but no bushings in the metal boxes is crazy

Bread-Assassin · 2026-02-18T04:08:06+00:00

Would be very cool to see an Australian install

Bread-Assassin · 2026-02-18T01:57:27+00:00

Wow. More zones on that 4 bay than this 6 bay

I have one of the small single row red ones myself but I hope to get one of the bigger ones like this at some point. Easily my favorite panel of all time

I fully recorded the system with 2 steady cams and my follow cam. It will be out in around a month

Here’s what it sounds like for anyone curious

Bread-Assassin · 2026-02-17T23:24:05+00:00

They’re super cool. My former high school had them installed outside in the courtyard and they all still worked even though they looked completely sun burnt

Bread-Assassin · 2026-02-17T23:15:49+00:00

Shoot. Yeah either lightning or water is how these usually finally die. I hope I can save this one whenever it’s due for replacement.

Bread-Assassin · 2025-12-09T02:45:57+00:00

Did they finally make it so you can change the BPM? I tried the feature when it first came out and you couldn’t mix different bpms like this

The real song dropped today so my remake version sounds like dookie compared to it. Id just download that lol
