ANSI/IEEE Audible siren form

IEEE-library form of audible siren: a siren indication identifies an audible alarm output with the documented operating role.

In plain English

What does ANSI/IEEE Audible siren form mean?

This reference locates audible siren in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented miscellaneous family. A siren indication identifies an audible alarm output with the documented operating role. The public library uses HAN1S for its horizontal representation; this is a vendor block name, not an IEEE standards symbol number.

A simple example

Use the surrounding circuit labels and the project legend to identify the intended operating condition and connection. Carry the same device reference into the schedule or equipment document so the symbol can be reconciled with its real terminals, function and operating limits.

What the drawings help you do

State the alarm condition and the controlling circuit. The symbol alone does not prescribe tone pattern or evacuation meaning. State the alarm condition and the controlling circuit. The symbol alone does not prescribe tone pattern or evacuation meaning. The linked functional counterpart explains the same operating role in its own drawing context; agreement of every detailed convention mark is not asserted.

How to read it

  • State the alarm condition and the controlling circuit.
  • The symbol alone does not prescribe tone pattern or evacuation meaning.

Information to show or reference

  • Identify the associated device, circuit or diagram boundary.
  • State the alarm condition and the controlling circuit.
  • Cross-reference the equipment data, terminal mapping or operating-state legend needed to interpret the form.

A distinction that matters

The symbol alone does not prescribe tone pattern or evacuation meaning.
