Station
This configuration allows for greater distances between a station and a console. The dis-
tance gained between the station and the console is up to 1000' more.
Note:
The maximum distance allowable in a single repeater configuration is 2000'. If the distance between
a station and a console is more than 2000', see "Multiple Repeater (Daisy-Chain) Configuration"
below. If more than one station exists, see "Multiple Stations, One Repeater Configuration" on
page 6.

Advanced Repeater Configurations

Multiple Repeater (Daisy-Chain) Configuration
More than one repeater should be used to transmit weather information from station to a
console if the distance between the station and console is greater than 2000' (a single
repeater configuration distance), or if they are not in line of sight of each other. A multi-
ple repeater or daisy-chain configuration can create a transmission distance of up to 9000'
using the maximum of eight repeaters.
Note:
The limit of eight repeaters is based on the number of unique repeater IDs available in a network.
