"All systems require testing to ensure that they are working properly. A monthly test will be performed at 12:15 on the first Monday of each month. This will be a short functional test using the “all clear” chime described above. In addition, a full volume test of the entire system will be conducted quarterly, utilizing the emergency pulsed tone."

It was more like 12:25, not 12:15.

I can hear the beginning tones from Jordan hall, but the vocal part of the message is indecipherable.

there can be a delay in the message depending on what provider you have and how many messages they have in query when sent. It could take a while if some people aren't on fast networks, although I get pretty good signal strength on campus.

I thought it was going to tell us the time and then it starting blurting out indecipherable jargon after the tones stopped.
