A graphically based tool and method for generating programming for a fire monitoring system. The locations of existing devices, such as detectors, in a building being monitored, can be visually presented in the context of the building. New devices can be installed, or the location of existing devices changed since all devices report their locations in the building to the tool. Device location information can be combined with building information to create a multi-dimensional representation of parts of the building being monitored.

Aspects of the invention are directed towards a system and method for noise suppression. One or more embodiments of the invention describe the method comprising steps of receiving noise by a microphone and deriving a noise signal from the noise, the noise produced by a fan of a fire/smoke detection unit while drawing air and detecting the speed of the fan of the fire/smoke detection unit. The method further describes steps of amplifying the noise signal by the amplifier received from the microphone and producing an anti-phase noise signal by shifting a phase of the amplified noise signal received from the amplifier wherein the anti-phase noise signal is dependent on the detected speed of the fan. The method further describes steps of outputting the anti-phase noise signal through a speaker to suppress the noise produced by the fan of the fire/smoke detection unit while drawing the air.
