Page 51: About Repeaters
■ About Repeaters A "Repeater" is deﬁned as an RTR-50 Wireless Communication Port that has been registered as a "Repeater" to act as a relay for Wireless Communication between a Base Unit and Remote Units from the our RTR-5 Series. [Limitations when using a Repeater] Although it is logically possible to register up to 250 Repeaters in a route, each additional Repeater added to the route will proportionately increase communication time.
Page 52 NOTE: It is possible to set up so that more than one Repeater acts as a relay for the same Remote Units. However because wireless communication is carried out in Groups of Remote Units, the same Group will be relayed through different Repeaters causing inefﬁciency and an increase in the amount of communication time to more than necessary.
