Introduction

SuperCELL® Model SC500-IC-GPS 

is an intrinsically safe, 

high performance, RF-wireless, emergency signaling and 
monitoring device, critical for Incident Commanders. 
A self-contained GPS continuously tracks location and 
transmits this location along with the user’s status to other 
Grace Telemetry products, including the MX900H.

SuperCELL® monitors distress alarm signals of fi re fi ghters 

equipped with GRACE TPASS® devices. SuperCELL® can also 
transmit Evacuate signals to all fi re fi ghter’s TPASS® devices. 

Features

• Top Button EVAC:

 Pressing the top button sends an 

Evacuate command to all other GRACE TPASS® and 
SuperCELL® devices. 

• Alarm Monitoring:

 Alerts the Incident Commander that 

a GRACE Man-Down telemetry device, within signaling 
range, is transmitting an alarm message. 

• Panic ALARM:

 Manually activated Emergency Alarm. 

•  Man Down Alarm:

 An optional safety monitoring feature 

which provides the Incident Commander with motion 
sensing protection. 

• Alarm Acknowledgment:

 When a SuperCELL® is in an 

alarm condition, an Alarm Acknowledgment message 
can be sent from an MX900 transceiver. This will clear the 
alarm condition and display the Alarm Ack message.

• Canned Text Messaging:

 Allows Incident Commander 

to send and receive pre-set Canned Text Messages to 
other SuperCELL® devices and In-Command® monitoring 
systems.
