Abstract: An alarm pull station having a removable actuator cover and an actuator switch operatively coupled to the actuator cover to signal when the pull station is a normal mode, an alarm mode, or a maintenance mode corresponding to when the cover has been removed.

Abstract: A building device with a front accessible address programming interface is provided. The building device includes a mounting base having front and rear surfaces. The front surface defines two connector channels extending towards the rear surface. The connector channels are spaced apart and sized to each receive a respective prong of a programming device connector plug. The building device further includes external terminals disposed on the rear surface, internal terminals, a group of normally closed switches having a common control input, and an actuator. Each switch connects an external terminal to a respective internal terminal when the common control input is deactivated to provide a network connection. The actuator is connected to the common control input and disposed such that the connector plug engages the actuator to activate the common control input of the switches when each of the connector channels receive a respective prong of the connector plug.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an aerial platform which is remotely controlled by an operator using a controller. The apparatus is used to service a detector of a fire safety system. The apparatus includes a frame having a gas canister and a gas delivery cup attached thereto, and a drone attached to the frame which is capable of flying the frame under remote control by the operator. A gripping mechanism for gripping a portion of a detector is provided for servicing the detector.
