Public Accessible
Panic Switches
Some applications call for panic switches that are accessible to the public. Panic switches are
input devices used to signal a non-fire emergency, and could be used to trigger events and/or
announcements in the building. If these switches are installed in public areas of a building they
would typically not automatically trigger a Mass Notification event. Instead, they would trigger
the Command Center to investigate the signal and make the appropriate announcement.
A variety of devices can be connected to a Simplex 4100ES via an individual addressable
module (IAM). The IAM should be programmed as a priority 2 device, or other non-fire alarm
point. The IAM may be used to monitor any contact type initiating device. Use a contact-type
initiating device listed to ANSI/UL 2017.
The Command Center may also use security cameras and/or intercom capabilities to allow
them to make a more rapid response and a Mass Notification announcement if necessary.
