Well spotted Tel, I know you know the unit

The mayford centre furnace building sounds rather familiar!
I did a bit of work with a company who had a unit in there for a while, we were next door to the drum workshop,
Still pop in there occasionally to visit bunnies.

Your spot on Dave, just completing a full 4 panel 8 loop networked fire alarm system at Mayford Woking
And have seen the drum shop unit, very impressive kits

Was the 551 a 2 track / message dialler and the 550 was a single track / message dialler

Lets conclude this for the night.....It is an old 8 track tape....this is basically an auto-dialer....using an 8 track recorded message.
When a & fire or security alarm was activated, the system would dial 999 (not allowed these days ) with a recorded messaged. The 8 track tapes were only obtained by emergency service at the time
