(See wiring diagram Fig. 5 for RCE-SS)
Description
SCE-SS Control Module — The SCE-SS
Addressable SmartScan™ Control Module
provides Gamewell intelligent control pan-
els a circuit for Notification Appliances
(horns, strobes, speakers, etc.) or to moni-
tor a telephone circuit. Addressability allows
the SCE-SS to be activated, either manu-
ally or through panel programming, on a
select (zone or area of coverage) basis.
RCE-SS Relay Module — The RCE-SS
Addressable Relay Module provides the
system with a dry-contact output for acti-
vating a variety of auxiliary devices, such
as fans, dampers, control equipment, etc.
Addressability allows the dry contact to
be activated, either manually or through
panel programming, on a select basis.
Applications
The SCE-SS is used to switch 24 VDC audible/visual power, high-level audio (speak-
ers), or control telephone devices. The RCE-SS may be programmed to operate dry
contacts for door holders, Air Handling Unit shutdown, etc., and to reset four-wire
smoke detector power.
Construction
• The face plate is made of off-white Noryl®.
• Controls include two rotary switches for direct-dial entry of address (01-99).
• The SCE-SS is configured for a single Class B (Style Y) or Class A (Style Z)
Notification Appliance Circuit.
• The RCE-SS provides two Form-C dry contacts that switch together.
Operation
Each SCE-SS or RCE-SS uses one of 99 possible module addresses on a SLC loop.
It responds to regular polls from the control panel and reports its type and status,
including the open/normal/short status of its Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC). The
LED blinks with each poll received. On command, it activates its internal relay. The
SCE-SS supervises Class B (Style Y) or Class A (Style Z) notification or control cir-
cuits.
Upon code command from the panel, the SCE-SS will disconnect the supervision and
connect the external power supply in the proper polarity across the load device. The
disconnection of the supervision provides a positive indication to the panel that the
control relay actually turned ON. The external power supply is always relay isolated
from the communication loop so that a trouble condition on the external power supply
will never interfere with the rest of the system.
Rotary switches set a unique address for each module. The address may be set be-
fore or after mounting. The built-in TYPE CODE (not settable) will identify the module
to the control panel, so as to differentiate between a module and a sensor address.
• Built-in type identification
automatically identifies these
devices to the control panel.
• Internal circuitry and relay
powered directly by two-wire
SLC loop. The SCE-SS module
requires power (for horns,
strobes, etc.), audio (for speak-
ers), or a telephone riser (for
handsets). Internal relay feature
available on SmartScan™
systems only.
• Use with IF602, 610, 632, 654
and 658.
• Integral LED “blinks” green each
time a communication is
received from the control panel
and turns on in steady red when
activated.
• LED blink may be deselected
globally (affects all devices).
• High noise immunity (EMF/RFI).
• The SCE-SS may be used to
switch 24-volt NAC power, audio
(up to 70.7 V
RMS
) or telephone.
• Wide viewing angle of LED.
• SEMS screws with clamping
plates for wiring ease.
• Direct-dial entry of address 01–
99 for SmartScan
™.
• Speaker, audible/visual, and
telephone applications may be
wired for Class B or A (Style Y or
Z).
