Mass Notification System Introduction
6.0 Mass Notification System
Introduction
The Flex-Net Mass Notification System (MNS) allows announcements and notifications to be
made to the occupants of a facility. It is intended for notification outside of regular fire
evacuation messages and signals. The MNS is able to override the fire control system in case
there is a need to communicate higher priority information. Conversely, it is possible for the fire
control system to have communication priority over MNS.
The MNS comes integrated with the fire control and monitoring system. A single MNS panel
can display both MNS and fire events but each type of event will appear separately on different
annunciator displays. The modules on the MNS panel used for MNS and fire functionality are
arranged independently from each other and are accessed via two separate doors on the
same panel. Refer to the figure below.
Even though the MNS panel has a fire monitoring component, fire devices cannot be
controlled by the MNS panel. Inputs for the MNS and the fire control system must reside on
loops connected to their respective nodes.
