The Firecom ANT-302 Supervised Life Safety Ceiling Antenna consists of an antenna with an integral Firecom
supervision module. This module provides for supervision of the ARCS ceiling mounted antenna. Combined with
the Firecom system supervisory motherboard installed the RPT-1 Repeater Cabinet, the Firecom ARCS 2000
Auxiliary Radio Communication System can provide individual antenna status for the entire system including the
coax cable.
The Firecom supervision module, when used with wall or ceiling antennas, provides each antenna a unique address which allows identification of an antenna disconnection. When one or more antennas becomes disconnected
from the coax cable, each antenna will be recognized as missing and annunciated on the LCD display of the OC-1
Operators Console. This reporting will occur whether the system is active or in standby (off) mode.
For visual field verification, the ANT-302 contains a multi-color LED which flashes every 8-10 seconds on the
device, validating connection to the RPT-1 Repeater Cabinet. The supervision module is designed to be integral
to the antenna.
