  • I was about to go down the elevator from the 3rd floor when I hear the alarm start to go off. I thought it was something paging the PA system at first but then there was flashing from an Edwards/EST remote strobe right in my eyes. It was a false alarm but the fire department showed up unfortunately. The message said "CODE RED LEVEL 0 CLINICAL GENETICS" it said it 3 times and level 0 is the lower level. Fun fact an elevator mechanic was there on the main floor at the time the Fire alarm went off.
    Great job Security and Fire department for responding.

      This because they are using chimes instead of horns since it's a hospital.

    Elevator recall typically doesn't occur until the detectors in the elevator lobby or elevator shaft detect smoke, or the fire department activates it manually.

      cpj5694 I knew about the manually turning it on. Sometimes the detectors in the elevator lobby can be a bit confusing.

    • @Twentythree33

      Elevator machine room devices also activate recall, as do pit devices (if there are any).

    Code red is the hospital term for a fire emergency. A slow whoop tone would startle patients and surgeons which will mess things up such surgical complications which is why they use a chime tone. Horn strobes are a bad idea in hospitals for the same reasons above but, worsened.

    I was there for a drill, and I got to help reset the system! It's a GIGANTIC EST3 system, with SIGA-270P Pull Stations, 202-5A-TW Strobes with LKC-1 ceiling lenses and 965-1A-8RW speakers.

    it sounds like a old school Edwards 8500 EVAC in first stage. The college i went to had one when i was in class there and it made the exact chime sound as this . the EST3 chime sound is different from this athough the sound could have also been loaded on to a EST3 as a custom sound as the previous system could have been a 8500 evac and they wanted to keep the same sound to avoid confusion

  • @rieon-plumbingfan
    @rieon-plumbingfan 5 лет назад +2

    From my knowledge this is what “CODE RED: LEVEL 0: CLINICAL GENETICS” Meant when it was paging over the EST Intercom:
    Code red Generally means fire (from my knowledge), and Level 0 was LL (Because M is the main floor) and Clinical genetics, I’ve researches it, and it seams to mean a doctor who provides a diagnostic service for family’s who have/may be at risk of having conditions from a genetic basis. With that in mind, i think that it was saying Clinical Genetics because it was in the office/area were they do clinical genetics diagnosis’s. So with that in mind, here is what the message was saying in lamens teams:
    “There is a fire on Floor LL in the Clinical Genetics office/Area”
    Please correct/tell me more information so i can edit this comment and make it more informative. :D

    • @twentyfour44
      @twentyfour44  5 лет назад +2

      I’ll give you that, I am not sure about the genetics because they are all over the hospital (FYI) I am not on the LL (lower Level) that much, so I don’t know he whole LL
