FDAS is ECE'S STUFF

fdas is not just the fdas per we. there were the various interfaces. knowing fdas without the interfaces is incomplete fdas.

FDAS is a privelege granted to ECEs. but other professionals were claiming it. they are working tirelessly to learn FDAS. some, in fact, got the nerve of affixing their sign and seal on fdas, though most were returned by the AHJs. FDAS is complicated, not easy as some professionals think. FDAS is not confined to FDAS alone, but to the various interfaces. it interfaces to mechanical equipments. it also interfaces with other electronics systems. FDAS interfaces with PA-BGM, to SCS (telephone system and the internet), to ACS (panic door controls and monitoring), and to CCTV (thermal camera integration). bottom line, designing FDAS without bearing in mind the other electronics systems, is an incomplete design.

most have already "moved on", some are still hoping for the a slice of it.

FDAS is ECE's stuff. ECEs who want to work and be skillful on FDAS. nobody can claim on any privelege by outright title alone.
