An Echo Repeater retransmits the packets, while a Base Station uploads them to the Soil Scout Hub via cellular (LTE/ UMTS/GSM) networks. Every unit has a unique ID on their type label, which must be input to the Soil Scout Hub, so that measurements are identified and recorded accordingly.

NOTE: Information regarding screws and bolt types are provided with best available accuracy, but may change without notice. All Soil Scout devices are ready for use when delivered.

7. Echo Repeater Operation The purpose of an Echo Repeater is to expand a Soil Scout site to wider areas than just the reception range of a single Base Station. An Echo boosts the signal level of any packets it receives by a retransmission, but it does not alter the information in any way.
All obstacles within the line-of-sight tube diminish and ultimately block the signal Obstacles between Echo and Base also impact ranges Soil Scout has lots of experience and understanding in the wireless operating conditions our customers have, and are happy to evaluate your installation plans in more detail.
