Inovonics Wireless Corporation 3B6SSRLA Manual De Usuario

FA5570 repeaters should be registered to report status to the TapWatch system. The system will then be able to monitor the 
repeater.  Detailed instructions are in the TapWatch2 Users Manual, part number 03253. Following  is a brief description of the 
registration procedure.

1.

From the Edit Repeater screen, click on "Add" button. "Add a Repeater" screen opens.

2.

Enter the description of repeater location. Enter the description of the repeater location.

3.

Register repeater. It is recommended that repeaters are registered to provide diagnostic information.

4.

New repeater will appear under Repeaters tab. “OK”  saves and exits screen. “Cancel” exits screen 
without saving.

Power supply: A 14VAC  transformer is provided with the FA5570.  

Backup battery: An optional 1.2AH 12VDC battery (not included) can be mounted outside the FA5570 hous-
ing. This is typically not used in submetering applications.

Low voltage detection: The repeater will report low voltage if the supply voltage (either primary or backup) 
drops into a preset range.

• AC power failure will not be reported directly—the TapWatch system will detect inactivity if repeater 

power is off for the duration of the supervision period. 

Supervision: Once every 5 minutes, the repeater sends a check-in transmission to the receiver.  The repeater 
will be declared inactive if no check-ins are received before the expiration of the supervision period. 

Test mode: Pressing the Test button will cause the repeater to transmit its current status until the button is 
released. 

Note: Repeaters do not show a "Test" state. Status will be displayed as "OK", "Low Battery" or "Inactive".
