IQ-RPT Crown Bus Signal Repeater
3 Operation
There isn't much to operating an IQ-RPT . Just plug it in
and it works. The operating environment should be free
of salt and moisture with temperatures between 32° and
158° farenheit (0° to 70° celsius).

To help with troubleshooting, the Repeater provides
several indicators that are described next.
This amber front panel LED lights to show that
the unit is receiving AC power.
This green front panel LED flashes when
incoming data is received.
This yellow front panel LED flashes when
outgoing data is sent. It does not indicate the status of
the output cabling.
This red back panel LED lights when
there is a connection between the output of the Repeater
and the input of the next device on the Crown Bus. It will
not light unless current can flow in the Crown Bus output
circuit from the positive (+) output line back to the
negative (-) output line. (The negative output line is
effectively a return line to ground.) The LED will not light
if the output circuit is open, but it will light if the positive
and negative output lines are shorted.
