Note: 

See the Vantage Pro2 console manual for more information on the screens in the Setup Mode if 
necessary.

To verify that setup was successful, in the console’s current mode:

1. View the transmitter information displaying at the bottom of the console screen. 

If the transmitter ID being repeated is displayed and an “X” displays in the bottom 
right-hand corner of the ticker tape, the transmitter is being repeated and received by 
the console successfully.

A multiple transmitter, multiple repeater installation can take place any number of ways 
with some repeaters receiving both repeaters and transmitters. See “Single Repeater 
Installation” on page 8 for detailed instructions on configuring the transmitter and con-
sole for wireless repeater use.

This section covers the additional steps necessary to get a chain of repeaters set up and 
communicating.

A combination network installation requires that the first repeater, the repeater closest to 
the first transmitter in the network, must have the repeater ID of A. The next repeater in 
the chain must be programmed with the repeater ID of B. The repeater that is set to the 
default of A is set up to only look for and acquire signals from the transmitters. The 
repeater with ID B looks for a repeater with the repeater ID of A, and any transmitters it 
is programmed to receive. 

To set the repeater IDs for all of the repeaters in the network:

1. Identify the repeater that should be the first repeater in the network.
