Verifying communication with multiple transmitters
Note: 
All transmitters in the network must have unique IDs in order for any repeater to communicate with 
them.
1. Find out and record all the transmitter IDs the wireless repeater will transmit. Use the 
“Transmitter and Repeater ID Worksheet” to record the transmitter IDs used. See 
“Verify Transmitter ID” on page 8 for information on determining the transmitter ID 
for all stations in the network.
2. On the Transmitter ID switch, set all the Transmitter IDs you want the repeater to 
acquire ON.
3. Turn the #4 test position to ON on the Repeater ID DIP switch. When trying to acquire 
stations, the repeater goes through the following process:
Looks for a station signal for ten minutes, with the STAT LED flashing red when 
it detects energy not associated with a station during this time.
Flashes yellow if it has found some stations but not all, and then;
Flashes green when all stations are found. For each station found, the TX LED 
flashes immediately after the STAT LED, indicating that it is transmitting the 
station ID(s).
Note: 
See “Maintenance and Troubleshooting” on page 25 if the following LED pattern does not display.
4. Turn the #4 test position to OFF once the test is complete, otherwise it can drain the 
battery power.
5. Repeat the test process to verify communication for every repeater in the chain.
Verifying Repeater Communication with a Console
The console is configured the same way it is configured in a Single Repeater installation, 
except that the repeater ID must be set for all station that are being repeated.
On the Console in Screen 2: Configuring Transmitter IDs:
1. Find the transmitter ID transmitting through the repeater, and if the station is not 
already turned on with it’s station type selected, do so now. Turn the station on by 
Repeater
