Fire Alarm Simulation Lab

Virtual panels, real operating rules.

LSW Sim-3030

EXPLORE MODEPHASE 0 · BASIC OPERATION

In the style of a large-building addressable panel — QWERTY keypad, five dedicated event-category keys, 640-character display. Click any key, LED or the display to learn what it does — then use the Field tab to put the building into alarm and work the panel.

A 0 · S 0 · T 0

Modeled after the operator workflow of the Notifier NFS2-3030 (manuals 52544/52545/52546, datasheet DN-7070:S). Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Honeywell. Training only — on a real panel follow the manufacturer's manual, the site procedure and the AHJ.

The panel is quiet right now — ACKNOWLEDGE and ALARM SILENCE won't do anything until there's something to respond to. Open FIELD and put a device into alarm first.

🗺️ FLOOR PLAN · TRAINING VISUAL ONLY

For orientation while you learn the addresses — not part of the real panel. On an actual job there is no map: a technician locates a device from its address and building knowledge, which is the whole skill this lab is teaching. Layout is schematic, not a real building.

The 640-character display

Sixteen lines of forty characters, driven by soft-key labels printed right on the screen (ACKNOWLEDGE / SIGNAL SILENCE / MORE INFORMATION / SYSTEM RESET / PROGRAM-ALTER STATUS / MAIN MENU) alongside an EVENT COUNTS tally block showing how many of each category are active right now. Far more information density than Sim-80’s 4×20 — and far more to read before you act.

WHERE IT LIVES IN NFPA 72
§10.18 — what must be annunciated
EXPLORE · LIVE
Every control explained with its NFPA 72 section. Put the demo building into alarm, work the keys, then find a NAC, SLC or battery fault with the meter on the BENCH tab.
GUIDED · LIVE (Sim-80)
Twenty-six real-world calls across five tiers — plain-English walkthroughs (Tiers 1/2/4/5) and meter-required field faults dealt straight into the real NAC/SLC benches (Tier 3). Sim-3030 Guided support is next.
EXAM · LIVE
A random hidden fault on the real NAC or SLC circuit, no hints, no fault tree — repair it, write your findings, and submit for a scored PASS/FAIL: Outcome, Accuracy, Safety, Efficiency and Time.
SIM-4K · LIVE (Explore)
The large-hospital panel: four separate ACK keys, the tally screen, a reset that refuses while an alarm is present, and now a NAC and an SLC/IDNet bench with a real meter — try them above. No menu tree or Guided walkthrough for this panel yet.
