Reading and listening to that, it sounds like one of the sirens in the siren system of the wps-4004 receiving bad DTMF codes.

Ahhh that's what it said. I was out side when they started voice and all I could make out was. a test I've never heard these sirens go off before until today

Very nice recording! Like the scanner announcement as well!

Added to favorites.

i hear a 2T22 in the background.

ChicagoSirens; I wished also Harwood Heights IL puts Whelen 2910 sirens and do voices too.

When the siren head is facing away from the camcorder the voice is really quiet, I was expecting it to be louder for some reason, probably because in so many other siren test videos I've seen there's little volume difference when the siren faces away from the camera compared to when it's pointing at the camera. Does the siren send a command back to the control station to tell the controller that it's finished playing the message or rotating?

Boy, they don't cut corners on voice announcements, do they? Nice video!

Nice video! That's a good 4004. There are some sirens heard in the beginning prior to the voice activating. Also, it sounds like there is an ACA Allertor or a dual-toned penetrator sounding and winding down while the 4004 is sounding. Do you hear that too?

That’s the same one that failed this one worked. But the other one on Chrome7fan failed and it keeps recoding

Can we make a music video with these radio tones?

Are these automated or manually operated sirens? What I mean is are they turned on and automated for dialup, rotation and siren, or is there a crew operating each siren?

@publicweather9633

All outdoor warning siren systems in one system are typically activated from a central location, all at once. In systems I've seen, they're activated by a person, but a Whelen system like the one you see here, is sort of a combination of automatic and manual. In this case, a person designated to run the system pushes a button, called a "hot-key", on a console called an encoder. The encoder will automatically put out the DTMF command strings at the programmed time intervals and automatically reset the system and itself. So in short, in the case of this Whelen system, a person has to activate it but it does it's thing and resets itself.

Real interesting. Also neet that it works on DTMF. So are these things hooked to a phone sistem of some sort? I've experienced DTMF because I have a device for the blind since I'm blind called a Voice Mate. The Voice mate uses it to call people for you. On the new cordless phones it doesn't work though. What's the SPL of this thing?
