Auxiliary systems are fire alarm systems that are connected directly to a municipal fire alarm system, such as those operated by a local fire department. These systems provide immediate notification to the authorities in the event of an alarm activation and are commonly found in buildings located within cities with centralized emergency response networks.
Warning system (A), Main system (C), and Alert system (D) are not formal classifications of municipal-linked fire alarm systems.
