A field programmable audible signal having voice message annunciating capability and a field programming device. The signal has two separate field programming paths. One path includes a built in microphone and the other is a facility to receive a download voice message from a field programming device as by a cable that plugs into both the signal and the programming device. The field programming device is capable of providing either of two messages during a download operation. The field programming device includes a record facility to change at least one of the messages and is small enough to fit in a hand held housing.
