INTRODUCTION
The SuperCell
TM
SC500 is a small transceiver that pro-
vides Emergency Signaling, Alarm Monitoring, Call Back
and Messaging capability. Emergency Signaling may be
activated by pressing the Alarm Button or through lack of
motion if desired. SuperCell
TM
SC500 also has the ability
to monitor Emergency Alarm Signals from other Grace
Telemetry products.
General Operating Information
Power ON/OFF
The SuperCell
TM
is turned ON by simultaneously press-
ing and releasing both side buttons marked PWR. This is
accompanied by a series of up sweeping audio tones. A
start-up screen will appear that displays a Grace Indus-
tries logo, under which is displayed the model. (Model
details may be viewed from a Setup sub-menu also).
After the logo is briefly displayed the Status Screen ap-
pears. The top line summarizes the active features, and
status of such items as low battery warnings for example,
through a series of icons, that will be explained further in
this document.
The center of the screen shows a large number which is
countdown seconds until the alarm sounds due to lack of
motion. Moving the SuperCell
TM
resets the countdown. The
countdown will be shown in reverse during the Pre-Alert
.sdnuos mrala noitom fo kcal eht erofeb yletaidemmi ,esahp
If motion sensing is disabled this is indicated on the screen,
and no countdown is shown.
The right side of the screen displays OEM code and the I.D.
number. The top line shows the OEM Code, usually 9090,
described in detail later in this document. On the lower line
first two digits represent the System I.D. and the last two or
three digits represent the SC500 unit I.D. The bottom left
line of the screen shows the radio frequency, the radio firm-
ware revision, and the type of firmware.
The SuperCell
TM
is turned OFF by simultaneously pressing
both PWR buttons and holding for about three seconds or
until the display shows the message Off. This is accompa-

the SuperCell
TM
.teser ro deraelc neeb sah mrala eht litnu ffo
This is to prevent unintentionally turning the SuperCell
TM
off
while clearing alarms. A message will be displayed on the
bottom status line indicating that the unit cannot be turned
off until the alarm has been cleared. To force the Super-
Cell
TM
to turn off, even with an active alarm, hold down the
Up button, along with the two PWR buttons. This could
be necessary in the case where alarms are coming in from
unknown or uncontrolled sources.
The SuperCell

operation is controlled by six side push but-
tons noted in the photo above. The button on the left of the
SuperCell
TM
unit is the Mode or Menu button, the button on
the right is the Select button.
Note: The display Backlight is activated for ten seconds with
each button press or received Alarm message. The Back-
light may be disabled in the unit Setup Menu, for covert
security operations.

Display Screens and Functions
After initial startup, all conditions are reset by pressing both
PWR buttons simultaneously resulting in the SC500 Status
Screen being displayed. Pressing the Menu button brings
up the following screens in order:
The top line displays current unit configuration status, includ-
ing (left to right) Signal Loss activation, Battery State when
low, Motion Sensing activation, Audio On/Off, and Inhibit
Timer activation. The time until alarm will be displayed to the
right of the top status line, when on any other screen than
the status screen. In the middle of right side of the screen
the unit I.D. number and OEM code is shown.
OEM codes are used as an additional method for isolating
systems having a large number of units operating in the
same geographic area. OEM codes are assigned by Grace
Industries to customers having this potential.
Alarm Monitoring Configurations
The SuperCells
TM
can be programmed at the factory with
alarm monitoring disabled, preventing it from receiving
Alarms from other SuperCells . With alarm monitoring
disabled, the SuperCells
TM
can only send an Alarm and/or
receive a Call - Page signal. The top status line indicates
how the Alarm Monitor is configured. The different alarm
monitoring modes can only be programmed at the factory.
AM0 - Alarm Monitoring 0, alarm Monitoring disabled, will
not receive Alarms from other telemetry devices
AM1 - Alarm Monitoring 1 secived yrtemelet lla rof delbane ,
within same System I.D. group.
AM16 - Alarm Monitoring 16, enabled for all telemetry
devices within all 16 groups sharing same first digit of
System I.D.
Individual Group Blocks
Individual group blocks may be enabled or disabled over the
IrDA infrared link. When shipped from the factory all groups
are enabled. Enabling only a single group prevents receiv-
ing messages from other groups that may be on scene in a
mutual aid situation.

The Send Message option may be used to send one of 80
pre-programmed text messages. The pre-programmed text
messages are programmed to the SC500 through the Su-
perCell
TM
Database Manager Utility Program provided with
SuperCells
TM
. The messages are accessed by going to the
Send Message screen, then using the Up/Dwn/*/# buttons
to chose the desired message. Up and Down change the
message count by one, while * and # change the count by
16. Once a message is selected, press and hold the Select
button for approximately three seconds, the message will be
transmitted and a Message Sent acknowledgment will be
displayed on the screen. Use Up/Dwn/*/# buttons to choose
other messages or the Menu button to leave the Send Mes-
sage feature.
Send Message Screen
Icons
When an Alarm is received from other SuperCell
TM
, TPASS
®
or other Grace Telemetry equipment, the I.D. of the unit in
alarm is shown on the display. If multiple units are in Alarm,
the I.D.s of the last thirty-two units in ala
rm will be placed
in the Alarm History Menu. The Operation Status LED rap-
idly strobes, alternating Red and Green. When the side
PWR buttons are pressed simultaneously; the SuperCell
TM
is reset and will not respond to the same alarm for thirty
seconds. This is referred to as alarm-inhibit-time and tem-
porarily prevents the device from continually displaying the
same repeating alarm, which would impede the user from
operating the SuperCell
TM
menu system.
Warning: During this thirty second alarm-inhibit-time,
alarm signals from the same alarm will not be indicated or
displayed.
On the display status screen a solid alarm icon represents
that the unit is actively monitoring alarms. An outline alarm
icon indicates that the recently activated alarms are not be-
ing monitored. The Inhibit Timer may be enabled or disabled
in the Setup section described later. From the factory the In-
hibit Timer is enabled, as disabling it causes multiple alarms
from the same unit to be received in successions requiring
multiple manual acknowledgments, which would impede the
user from operating the SuperCell
TM
menu system. Each
individual alarm must be acknowledged by pressing both
side PWR buttons. The bottom line of the display will show
how many alarms have been received that will need ac-
knowledged. If more than eight alarms are received simulta-
neously, without any operator acknowledgment via the PWR
buttons, additional incoming alarms will not be processed;
until the operator acknowledges at least one alarm and the
thirty second Inhibit Timer expires for that alarm.

abled unless stipulated otherwise by the customer. The end
user may select, using the Up/Dwn buttons, from 30, 45,
60, 75, 90, 105 and 120 seconds to alarm after motion has
ceased. Approximately 12 seconds before the SC500 goes
into alarm a pre-alert is sounded. The pre-alert (a series of
up tones) is sounded at 11, 8, 5 and 2 seconds if no motion
is sensed. If no motion is sensed by the end of the pre-alert
the unit goes into Alarm.
When Motion Sensing is enabled the countdown timer rep-
resents the time to alarm. When motion is sensed the timer
will reset to the alarm time selected.
The Signal Lost Timer feature is to prevent users from un-
knowingly wondering out of range of the base/mobile sys-
tem.
The Signal Lost Timer option may only be used in con-
junction with other compatible Grace Lone Worker
products, turning it ON without these products in range
results in a Signal Lost alert message frequently ap-
pearing. Simply disable this alert to prevent these mes-
sages.
The SC500 is shipped with the Signal Lost Timer option
disabled or turned OFF unless stipulated otherwise by the
customer. The end user may enable this feature by select-
ing from one to fifteen minutes, in one minute increments,
to activate an alert on the SC500 when no signal has been
received from the Base, Watchdog, or MX products, for the

has a low battery. Low battery is also
indicated by the Operational Status LED changing to a peri-
odic Red strobe. A double chirp sounds once every five min-
utes with audio enabled. Warning: There are no audible
low battery sounds with audio tones disabled.
When low battery is indicated, the battery should be re-
charged as approximately three hours of operating time
remain. The Rechargeable lithium battery is not user
replaceable.
With the charger provided, recharge time is approximately
six hours, from a low battery warning, and nine hours for
a dead battery. Due to current limits imposed by Intrinsic
Safety requirements, a unit that has gone completely dead
will have to be removed from the charging base and rein-
serted when the charging light turns red. Typical operation
time between recharging is approximately eighty hours in
standby/ready mode.

Mobile Lone Worker Applications
SC500-OR with Out of Range Notification
The SC500-OR is similar to the standard SC500 in most
respects but with the added feature of notifying the user
when they have exceeded the effective signaling range of a
compatible MX900 transceiver. The MX900 transceiver, with
Charging
Base
which the SC500-OR is to be used, must have its Ping fea-
ture turned ON. The two devices operate as a system where-
by the MX900 unit (with its PING feature turned on) will echo
back a normal on-mode polling signal that is received from a
Grace Industries SC500-OR two-way signaling device. The
SC500-OR device will receive the echo of its own on-mode
polling signal (sent from the MX900) and resets the Out-of-
Range Notification timer. If the echoed signal sent from the
MX900 is not received, or conversely the MX900 does not
receive a polling signal from the SC500-OR within approxi-
mately 3 minutes, an audible warning sound will activate on
the SC500-OR indicating the effective range of the system
has been exceeded. This audible Out-of-Range notification
(a bell-like, double-chirping sound) will occur approximately
every 30-40 seconds until the signal link between the SC500-
OR and MX900 is re-established.
