Can any one has an idea that Simplex provides (sell) programming software for there 4100U FACP or it is only exclusive for Simplex Distributers???

Simplex does not have distributors. They will sell the software if the customer agrees to sign off on liabilities. This makes the customer completely liable for the system. It's not recommended to do this, but it can be done.

Fire Alarm Sales Rep. for Simplex

As a Simplex Tech. Rep. for many years, I can tell you that the customer should be able to have any other qualified company reprogram their panel, and I stress their panel. The program software should be available to any qualified technician whether they are a Simplex technician or not. I still work on all Simplex panels because my customers can't wait weeks for a Simplex rep. I have over the years watched customers rip out a good Simplex panel 2 or 3 years old because the customer could not get it serviced in a timely fashion because of the proprietary software issue. It was stressed to me many times that we had to tell our customers they had to use a Simplex tech rep. to make program changes to their system. The statement that they should not have it programmed by another company is wrong. Sir, buy the software, get a qualified local technician and get the work done that way.

I need the 4100U programming software. Can you
please tell me where I can buy it?

Thank you.

If you want a tech that is not factory certified programming on your 4100U you're nuts, Simplex panels are very complex. You're dealing with Life Safety.

Can you email me (g-k [at] comcast.net) regarding your comments? I do not want to take this up in this forum for those not interested.

Thank you.

pls send a complete file of cataloges for simplex fire alarm system 4100U including all devices detection and monitoring and so thanks for your cooperation.

Can you get your hands on programming software?

Depends on what version of software and if you have a "key" that goes into the printer port.

Simplex won't sell you their software. I worked for Simplex for 3 years and they make their employees sign waivers when they give you programs keys so that you won't distribute program information. Good Luck with that...

Someone donated a Simplex Life Alarm Fire Alarm System 4001 (the box for on the wall) to our non-profit company to sell to raise money. What is it worth? Do you know anyone we can sell it to?

Have you found any information regarding the 4100 software key, and do you know of anyone who has purchased the software from Simplex?

it can be download from net, but you need to buy dongal from for programming. you can also attend training program, which is conducted by simplex time to time.

my 4100u programmer (12.01.06) goes with error "dll could not be found, please install security service" (on win98) as another programmer (11.08) works well on the same OS. could anyone tell me reason? what's that security service?

12.01.06 was written for a USB dongle. You can still use the old dongle. However, you need to install the Sentinel Protection Installer first.

when installing simplex network card to computer it gives kod 10 warning. what can i do?

Pls help me, how can upgrade the Simplex 4100 Fire alarm systems to Simplex 4100/7023 (Master Redundant controller) or Simplex 4100U? any information about this , let tell me via email address.

Thanks so much,

All you have to do is to replace the master controller card and the display board in order to convert 4100 in 4100U
