D Repeater operation

Ask your dealer for details of the repeater’s program-
ming.

➥

When the power is turned ON, the 

[PWR] indicator 

lights green. (p. 1)

➥

The 

[TX] and [BUSY] indicators light simultane-

ously while transmitting/receiving a signal.

  • The 

[TX] indicator lights red.

  • The 

[BUSY] indicator lights green.

NOTE: A power amplifier protector is built-in to the 
repeater. The protector is activated when the re-
peater temperature becomes extremely high due 
to the frequently access to the repeater to reduce 
the transmit output power level. The output power 
will return to the normal level when the repeater 
has cooled down.
