Wireless Repeater
5. Turn off the “ farthest” transmitter and then add the second farthest transmitter (and 
its receiver) to your network. Check the reception of that second signal at each point.
Ensure that your network is functioning properly at every stage so that if, at 
some point, you add a transmitter, repeater, or receiver that is malfunction-
ing or is poorly positioned, you will know immediately.
6. Add additional transmitter/receiver pairs one at a time, making sure to test only one 
signal (i.e., one pair) at a time.
7. Once each transmitter/receiver pair has been tested by itself
, add signals (i.e., the 
transmitters you tested above) slowly to the network as follows:
A.  Turn all the repeaters off. Turn off all transmitter ID dip-switches except  
Transmitter 1 dip-switch.
B.  Turn on Transmitter 1 and Repeater A only. Verify that Repeater A is 
retransmitting to Transmitter 1 by observing the LED (as illustrated on 
page 6.
)
C.   Apply power to repeater B, C, and D.
 Data is transmitted and 
repeated to the consoles/receivers through repeaters B, C, and D.
D.  Turn on Transmitter 2 and flip dip-switch #2 on Repeater A to ON. 
Data 
is transmitted and repeated to the consoles/receivers through 
repeaters B, C, and D.
E.   Turn on Transmitter 3 and flip dip-switch #3 on Repeater B to ON. 
Data 
is transmitted and repeated to the consoles/receivers through 
repeaters B, C, and D.
F.   Turn on Transmitter 4 and flip dip-switch #4 on Repeater C to ON. 
Data 
is transmitted and repeated to the consoles/receivers through 
repeaters C, and D.
Note: The steps above tell how to set up and test a network like the network illustrated on page 
13. The exact steps vary according to your particular repeater, transmitter and receiver  
combination.
If a repeater is set to listen for more than one signal, the repeater waits until 
it has acquired all the signals you have told it to listen for, before it begins 
repeating. If it fails to acquire one or more of the signals after one minute, 
the repeater will begin repeating the signals it has found and will check 
again for the missing signals once every hour. 
Note: If the repeater fails to acquire any signals at all, it will time out after one minute. Reposition 
the repeater, check that its dip-switches are set correctly and that the transmitter/repeater 
it is listening for is functioning properly, and then power the repeater up again.
Whether the repeater acquires all the signals or not, the LEDs flash three 
times. For each successful transmission of a signal, the lower LED flash fol-
lowed by the upper LED. Count the number of distinct pairs of flashes to 
determine if any signals are missing.
8. Take all the units out of test mode.
Consult your installation manuals to find out how to take the units out of 
test mode. Leaving any of the units in test mode drains power.
