What we have is a template file that is packed full of tools that I have created over the past 9+ years.
These are tools that I find useful and fast and accurate. From measurement during layout and design phase to quick block insertion to speed up the fire alarm design process.
Through the years I have built my templates with Autocad,BricsCad, and ProgeCad. Primary design element is AutoCad but have also gone back and made modifications to the design tools to make them compatible with the other brands of CAD.
I have been offered (like most of the other design tools on the web) to sell my product pre-bundled in one of the off brands of CAD.
I have been approached by all but one company. I approached them in my earlier phase and did not like what they were offering.
I've decided to keep my design tools separate and available for everyone and at an affordable cost.
I know that most bosses will not take the time to learn what these tools do, therefore they will not see the use in them.
So my price is to target the average guy who designs for fire alarm companies. Keeps the price at a fraction of the others and allows users to use the tools on which ever platform they already have and are most comfortable with.

If you would like any extra effort showing you how to use my tools that goes beyond the 'readme' form that is bundled with the template, you will have to contact through one of the follow up emails after purchasing a template. There will be a cost for any services I provide from that point forward.
The 'readme' file tells what commands to use for what function.
Any tools I make that I find are too cumbersome or too slow and not as efficient as my other tools, I have bundled in the link below and those are for free. Maybe I can influence people to clean up their designs.

For a few years now I have been working on a fire alarm template. Actually a couple templates. I recently added a fire sprinkler template and an access control template.
In the templates I have tons of tools that I have created. They make my job much easier. I am continuously adding more features to the templates. The end goal is some day to own my own fire alarm company and be able to hire people who are in need of a job, yet have no skills. I can then hand them a computer with autodesk/autocad on it and turn the person into a fire alarm designer and I won’t have to worry about much to teach them and the jobs go as flawlessly as I can make them go.

Features of the fire alarm template
If you look click this image of a section of the fire alarm title block, everything that says “select one” has a drop down menu to select through the options I regularly have. Such as AHJ, Sales Person, Job type (new construct,add to existing) and so on.

I have also created Attributes for the site title and the address. Autobookmark plug in for adobe acrobat mac.
If you look at the fire alarm legend your will see I have parts numbers listed along with part count for relocated devices, existing devices and new devices. Also I made sure to show the little menu so that you can see when you click of the parts numbers of say …. for a Fire alarm Horn/Strobe you will see the little globe pop up next to the pointer telling you that you can click on it and get taken to the manufacturer’s website to download the cutsheets for the device. This cutting out the time it normally takes you to look up the devices on the web and find the cut sheets for each fire alarm device. Every place you see the word “select” there is a menu of items I regularly use pertaining to that mart of the legend. No sense in typing that stuff with every fire alarm I design.
Cool feature I added in Autocad/autodesk for fire alarm design
The goal is to be able to click the legend and a menu will come up asking you what vendor or parts distributor like genesis,system sensor, or firelite etc. you select one and the legend changes to the correct parts numbers. Then click the numbers on the left (parts count) and a drop down comes up of 0-1000. So if you have 43 pull stations , you go to the 00 to the left of the pull station in the legend and click once for the menu, then scroll to the number 43 and you now have your count as accurate as you need. Also the devices are on separate layers, this way if I want to not show my smoke detectors in the drawing, I just turn that layer off. It removes the smoke detectors from the drawing and the legend, and the theory of operation and the parts count. Kind of cool.
Now, there is a function that uses excel that I have been working on and “Table” command that is in progress. The goal to so that when you select your notification devices such as strobes or horn/strobes your counts change for your battery calculations. Yes you still have to manually do a few things to make this work so right now, that isn’t much worth mentioning unless someone has a better option they would like to share with me

I currently have three custom fire alarm templates that I use regularly and in their current state, It is BLISS. So much stuff you have to memorize about fire alarm design is a non issue while using these templates. Depending on task, location, manufacture and a few other issues, I will decide which template I need most for the job.
Many of the blocks and data links and attributes I have added to the fire alarm templates, are to remove human error, some are for my own security. Impex powerhouse home gym manual cable diagram. Such as print time, creation date designer “Field” entries. Say if someone comes to me and asks me questions, I can see what date the drawing was printed and who’s computer printed the drawings. This is for my security and prevents people from tampering with my designs, and getting away with it. Yes I have worked in a pretty cut-throat office with people who tampered with my designs. These are great features.

Another helpful feature is the option to insert devices anywhere in a drawing with just a simple insert command. Then just hit the enter button as many times as you need to drop the same device. Example:
I typically start my design with initiating devices. Pull stations first so I just simply type “insert” or “i” and hit enter. Then a window pops up asking what I want to insert I type in “pull” and hit enter. and boop, a pull station as at the end of my pointer. Now I just find a place that the pull station needs to go and click that spot. There it is… pull station. I notice a few more spots, so I just hit the enter button (repeats last command) little window pops up again, this time “pull” is already in there, so I just hit enter again. From here out with the pull stations I repeat this ; enter-enter-click, enter-enter-click, enter-enter-click, enter-enter-click. By doing that I have just placed 4 more pullstations in the time it usually takes someone to place 1 pull station.
