Thursday Oct 09, 2025
Thursday Oct 09, 2025
Most technicians know how to install. Few know how to think.
In this episode, I break down what separates an installer from a true fire alarm programmer. You’ll learn how to master Edwards EST3 SDU programming, understand rule logic, and transform the way you design and troubleshoot systems in the field.
Key Takeaways:
Programming is not about memorizing syntax it’s about understanding logic.
Once you understand inputs, outputs, and priorities, you can write rules for any system. The EST3 Rule Architect is built to give techs a real process, not just theory.
