5. Continue setting the next sequential repeater ID for each repeater in the chain.
Verifying Communication with a Transmitter and
Repeaters
Note:
The repeater that received the default ID of A is the only transmitter in the network that must be con-
figured with the station's Transmitter ID.
1. Have the first repeater in the chain placed in an area where it is likely to receive the
transmitter signal.
2. Turn the Transmitter ID for the station ON on the Transmitter ID switch.
3. Turn the #4 test position ON on the Repeater ID DIP switch. The Status LED blinks
red until the repeater receives the desired transmitter. When a packet of information
has been fully received from the transmitter, the Status LED blinks green and the TX
LED blinks, indicating that it is sending the information it has received from the trans-
mitter to a console.
Note:
See "Maintenance and Troubleshooting" if the following LED pattern does not display. Repeater A
should fully acquire a signal from a station before proceeding to the next repeater in the chain, oth-
erwise the second repeater in the chain will have trouble acquiring a signal.
4. Toggle the #4 test position of OFF once the test is complete, otherwise it can drain the
battery power.
5. Select the second repeater in the chain (Repeater ID B) and toggle the #4 test position
on Repeater ID DIP switch to ON. The Status LED displays the same light pattern dur-
ing its acquisition phase as described above.
6. Repeat the test process to verify communication for every repeater in the chain.
Note:
Set the Transmitter ID for only one repeater (first repeater) in the chain. The second repeater in the
chain automatically repeats the first repeater and the station the it is communicating with.
Use the following diagram for an example of transmitter and repeater DIP switch settings
for each repeater in a daisy chain.
