Fire Station Alerting

Medford Fire Station 6 Fire Station Alerting Demo.

When I first joined the Service, it was bells, very large bells, very noisy bells! Changed to tones on speakers through out the station and message on the printer. Tones were loud but bearable, also all station lights internal & external would come on.. Worked every time!!

[pascaljh]

Ours turns on all the lights, then the tone goes off real loudly, followed by the looming voice that rattles the very core of your soul.

That’s interesting to see the lights of different color go on when calls come in. I listen to police scanners and my late great uncle from Kentucky was a volunteer firefighter and he had scanners and radios in his vehicles so I’m familiar with the tones. But never seen what really happens inside a fire station when there’s a call.

This is literally the coolest shit ever.

Voice call, lights, buzzer then dispatch print out for my house. Meanwhile you get bunker on fire up engine etc, run without running. Every time I love it. Best job in the world, only job!!!

[j.gardner]

That’s actually a pretty cool set up. Our station needs something like this. They’ve talked about it but nothing ever got done. How would you install something like this? We currently have nothing in our station.

[Brusedhertss]

Imagine this at night, the noises and lights would scare me so much

[CoolestGamerSE]

That's so cool I want those in my home :)

[hottshot]

The G2 system is also nice, like the soft tones. Much easier on the system at night.

[isaiahheid]

Even though this was a test, I just feel bad for any firefighter that had a pager programmed to those tones. They set the tones off 3 times, which means any pager programmed to those tones went off 3 separate times. Hopefully they did that during the day 😂

[happynow]

why don't you all want to hear the info he's trying to educate us with. Either way it's just an emergency alert.

[Kadendrawmaster]

This what i expect at every fire station

[BritishTightEnd]

Yeah our alert system is just a loud warbling and then coded light beams and led lights

[infinitecanadian]

Awesome!  I wish someone did this in Canadian fire halls.  I kinda want to know how we do this.

[bjornironsides]

Our system is voiced by Samuel L Jackson. "Get up MThufkas! Shi need done!"

[Jackson.]

In are station the bell goes off and all the lights turn off as well as the stove, microwave etc

[moviewatcher]

With those kind of Lights the fire department will know which calls are going out

Red: fire

Blue: medical

Green: other calls

[qurstenorgas]

Sound effects
0:20 number one
1:09 number two
1:54 number three
Which one is scarier

[seanjuth]

Other emergency is probably used for hazmat

[kfcify]

Pretty cool. For "other emergencies", would this Include car wrecks or gas leaks?
