Fire Station/Personnel Notification

Fire station alerting is a part of the telegraph fire box system—bells sound in the station when there is an
alarm or fire box activation. The system also controls apparatus bay doors on stations with newer door
electronics, as well as turn on lights in the station. Additionally, the CAD system transmits digital pages when
there is an event. All stations have a CAD status monitor that will display the alarm information.
