Preclude indications that Home/ personal use are prohibited. Use of unauthorized antennas, cables, and/or coupling devices not conforming with ERP/EIRP is prohibited. FCC Part 15.21 Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. FCC Part 15 Class A NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.

Regulatory Warning Statement FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 210 cm between the radiator and your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Wiring Compartment The bottom of the PSR-78-9533-UA is a wiring compartment with pre-cut holes. These holes are designed to be used in conjunction with conduit hubs to prevent water ingress. A total of 6 pre-cut holes are available to use for the various cables that will be needed for the proper operation of the repeater.
Wire Terminals Non-power limited cables such as the AC power line and the DC battery line shown below in red must be separated by ¼” from power limited cables such as the donor/server, ext. alarm, and annunciator lines shown below in black. To maintain the ¼” spacing, route the annunciator line above the server line as shown in the picture below.

Blue 3.3.3 RF Figure 3-4 RF Ports The RF connections are made via two 4.3-10 female connectors. The RF connector labeled “DONOR” must be connected to the antenna pointing towards the base station. The DONOR port can receive both 700 and 800MHz public safety signals.
Battery Backup Port (4-pin Female) When the ADRF-BBS/BBL-24 is connected to the repeater, the battery switch on the PSU must be switched to the ON position. This will enable the repeater to charge the ADRF-BBS/BBL-24 battery backup unit when AC power is present.
(WARNING: The circuit breaker switch on the ADRF-BBS/BBL-24 must be set to OFF before connecting it to the PSR-78-9533-UA to prevent damage to the repeater or the ADRF-BBS/BBL-24 and personal injury.) Note: Please contact ADRF Technical Support for assistance if you are unfamiliar with the installation procedure of the battery box.

ALARMS Message Board Alarms and Notifications Table 4-1 Message Board Alarms and Notifications Alarm Alarm Description Trigger Condition AC Input is outside of AC Fail The power supply is not operating within specs. (4 seconds) operating range DC Output is outside of DC Fail The power supply is not operating within specs.
4.2 External Alarms The PSR-78-9533-UA supports dry contact alarms and can be connected to a fire alarm control panel. The user can program the repeater to either create an open or closed circuit when an alarm is present in the system.
5.1.2 PSR-ANN Annunciator Installation The PSR-ANN annunciator box has been designed to either mount on top of the PSR-78-9533-UA repeater or can also be wall mounted separately. By default, the mounting bracket is configured to mount to the top of the repeater with the mounting bracket at the bottom of the PSR-ANN annunciator box.
Antenna Separation/Isolation The separation between the donor and server antennas is necessary to prevent oscillation. Oscillation occurs when the signal entering the system continually re-enters, due to the lack of separation between the donor and server antennas. In other words, the signal is being fed back into the system. This creates a constant amplification of the same signal.

DO NOT APPLY AC POWER TO THE BDA UNTIL CABLES ARE CONNECTED TO BOTH PORTS OF THE BDA AND THE ANTENNAS. 1. To mount on a wall. Using appropriate screws and anchors attach the BDA to the wall at the four mounting holes.
4. The brackets on the back of the ADRF-BBL/BBS-U unit can be used to secure to the wall ONLY when it is stationed on the floor. Due to the total weight of the ADRF-BBL/BBS-U w/ batteries, it CANNOT be wall mounted off the ground.
