1 1 Exam Prep Fire Alarm Signaling Systems Tabs and Highlights These 1 Exam Prep Highlights are based on the Fire Alarm Signaling Systems, 4th Edition. Each Tabs sheet has five rows of tabs. Start with the first tab at the first row at the top of the page; proceed down that row placing the tabs at the locations listed below. Place each tab in your book setting it down one notch until you get to the bottom of a page. Then start back at the top again. After each Tab, under "Reason" is a brief explanation of the purpose of the tab, and/or items to highlight in the section. 1 Exam Prep Tab Pg. # Reason/Highlight Table of Contents V Brief Contents History 1 The History of Fire Alarm Systems Fire Signatures 13 Establishing Fire Protection Goals and Understanding Fire Signatures 15 Fire Signature Fundamentals 20 IR and UV Radiant Energy: earliest signatures detected.
