To measure the coverage of a room for smoke coverage and candela array.

The smoke coverage tool allows you to measure in square feet or in circular circumference (if you have been in the fire alarm industry long enough, you've seen this debate)

The candela measurement tools are for wall mounted visual notification measured to match requirements of NFPA 2013-2022, and the ceiling mounted visual notification devices, measured to match NFPA 2013-2022 requirements  with a drop down menu for ceiling height selection.

Battery Calculations
Our battery calculator works with many different fire alarm systems. You just put in the data and the calculator shows Pan max amps, panel used amps, panel remaining amps, battery max amps, battery used amps, battery remaining after 24 hours of stand by and 5(or 15) minutes of alarm. Ensuring that you do not exceed your panel max amps and your battery max amps.
Voltage drops
Voltage drop calculator, just type in your max allowed amps per circuit (found in cutsheets) the amps of the devices you are adding and the distance from last device. You will see what your remaining voltage is and how much is loss based on distance and amps of device.
Audibility
audibility calculator uses the A-weighted scale to measure sound loss based on distance from your audio notification device.
also calculates audio loss through doors. Only two doors to choose from. So it is not guaranteed but will give a close enough number to tell you when you are over your limit or pushing too close.
Watts Calculator for Audio devices
there are two versions. The quick and the detailed.  The quick one if for the times that you are installing all audio devices at the same watts. You just type in panel watts max, the number of devices, and the watts each device will use.
Then the detailed watts calculator for the times that you are installing many devices and will use more than one watts setting.
Conversion tool
Lets you convert milliamps and microamps to amps. For those times when you just can’t remember how many zeroes are needed to convert from cutsheet data to normal data.
