Both LEDs should flash once when power is applied.  If all is well, both LEDs 
should flash again, two times quickly, about 12 seconds later.  After that second 
double-flash, the unit begins looking for a signal.  If it finds one, the lower LED 
will flash as the data is received and then the upper one will flash as it trans-
mits.
 
Test Mode
 
In test mode the lower green LED flashed each time the unit receives data.  The 
upper green LED flashes when it re-transmits that data.  Use this mode to ver-
ify that your transmitter is working.  Turn off test mode to get the longest bat-
tery life.  Test mode is enabled by toggling the fourth Repeater ID dip switch to 
the ON position and then, if necessary, removing and reapplying power.
 
Multiple Repeaters Installation
 
If you have more than one repeater in your network, follow the instructions as 
if for a single repeater installation but, before you apply power, set the repeater 
ID codes so that each will listen to the repeater before it in succession.  The first 
repeater (i.e., the repeater closest to the transmitter) needs no adjustment.  The 
second repeater, however, needs to be set to Repeater ID #2; and the third, to 
#3; and so on.  In this way, the third repeater will only tune into signals from 
the second, and the second will only tune into signals from the first, and so on, 
thereby improving reception.
To set each repeater’s ID code (except the first), use the table below to set the 
Repeater ID dip switches:  
Once you have set the ID codes, simply continue with the “Powering the 
Repeater” instructions on page 2.  Ther
e is no need to configure the repeaters to 
listen to a specific transmitter ID code, unless you want a repeater to listen to 
an entirely new transmitter aside from the one whose signal it’s repeating.
