Comelit 45TRC100 Manual Tecnico página 9

1. General Description
45TRC100 is a wireless expander module designed for
operation with conventional fire alarm panels, including
Comelit ERACLE series panel, produced by Comelit.
45TRC100 is powered from external power supply with
back-up battery. The module is equipped with special
inputs for monitoring the main and back-up power
supplies.
45TRC100 communicates with Comelit series wireless
devices enrolled to its configuration. Up to 32 wireless
devices can be enrolled to a specific expander, forming
a linear network. Up to 5 45TRC100 wireless expander
modules can be connected to a single conventional fire
alarm control panel as this depends on the system/panel
capacity.
45TRC100 is mounted in a compact plastic enclosure box
suitable for wall mounting. The information of the status
of the enrolled wireless devices is presented on a LCD
text display. The programming of the wireless devices
parameters is from the module menus.
A dipole SMA type antenna is supplied with the expander
module to ensure wide covering range and stable
communication with the enrolled wireless devices.
2. Functional Features
• Specially designed for extending the application of
conventional fire alarm panels
• Direct connection to conventional zone terminal
• Compatible for operation with Comelit ERACLE series
and third party conventional fire alarm control panels
• Up to 5 wireless expanders to conventional panel/
building*
• Up to 32** COMELIT series wireless devices enrolled to
an expander module
• Dipole antenna, SMA connector type
• Event messages for wireless device status: low battery,
tamper, lost device
• Menu for reviewing the signal strength of the enrolled
devices
• LCD display, dot matrix 16x2
• Multilanguage menus
• Standards applied: EN 54-18; EN 54-25
* The number depends on the type of the conventional panel
and the capacity of the system.
** The number of enrolled COMELIT devices depends on
the number of the current connected wired devices to the
conventional zone. Up to 32 wired and wireless detectors can
be connected to a conventional zone.

4. Installation Place and Mounting
It is strongly recommended to design the Comelit
wireless system in advance on paper, before starting the
installation.
The 45TRC100 expander module should be installed at
2-2.5m above the floor level.
Attention: Avoid installation of the 45TRC100 module
and the wireless devices near to:
• Power lines or other high voltage equipment with large
electric consumption.
• Big metal structures – cabinets, pending ceilings, thick
concrete walls. Note that, the quality of the signal
strength is reduced with 80%, and sometimes with
100% (full reflection) in premises with metal walls or
surfaces.
• Fluorescent lamps and lighting fixtures.
• Wi/Fi Routers, wireless telephone stations, computers
and network cabling.
• Fluorescent lamps and lighting fixtures.
• Wi/Fi Routers, wireless telephone stations, computers
and network cabling.
5. System Topology
The 45TRC100 wireless expander module must be
powered from an external 24V DC power supply unit,
compliant to EN 54 standard. The module is connected to
zone and sounder circuits of the conventional fire alarm
panel. The enrolled to expander module Comelit series
devices, operate in linear network.
Up to 5 separate 45TRC100 modules can be connected
to single conventional panel. The number of connected
wireless expander module depends on the system/panel
capacity.
For optimum operation, plan to ensure at least 2m
distance between two expander modules and the same
minimal distance between each device and the expander
