EMS FireCell RCC

The EMS FireCell RCC is a radio cluster communicator that is used to connect fire alarm control panels to a radio hub. The RCC can be used to transmit fire alarm signals, system faults, and other data to the hub. The hub can then transmit this data to a central monitoring station or other designated recipient.

The RCC is a self-contained unit that includes a built-in power supply and battery backup. It also includes a number of features that make it easy to install and maintain, such as:

  • Automatic enrollment with the hub
  • Remote configuration and diagnostics
  • Over-the-air firmware updates

Step 1 Identify RCC Locations:
If a radio survey has already been carried out, the survey will detail the recommended
location of the RCCs and also their communication path back to the Hub.
The recommended distance between metal objects from the aerial is 600mm. The
recommended distance to any other electrical equipment is 2 metres.

Mains cable entry can be made on either side of the unit. This is made possible with
rotation of the power supply allowing maximum installation exibility. The RCCs
backup battery can also be relocated to the other side of the unit. See the FireCell
Instruction Pack for more information.
Step 2 Identify Mains Entry Location:
Step 3 Prepare RCC Box:
Open the unit and carefully remove the inner PCB. The mains cable entry can now be
made. See entry points below:

The unit can now be xed to the wall. The PCB and connecting lead can now be
carefully re-inserted. See the RCCs xing positions below:
Step 4 Fix the RCC to the Wall:
Step 5 Apply Power to RCC:
Connect the Mains supply and power the unit. The battery should also now be
connected.
If the system has been supplied fully programmed, the installation of the RCC is now
complete.
If the system has been supplied unprogrammed, the RCC will now require
programming to the Radio Hub. It is recommended that the RCCs ident number is
recorded along with the RCCs radio communication path back to the Hub.
See the FireCell Instruction Pack for more information.
Step 6 Log on RCC to the Hub:
