To call an Endpoint through one or more Repeaters, that Endpoint must be called individually. With Call All
selected, the Gateway will not connect with any Endpoints through Repeaters. The Gateway calls every
Endpoint in the list and connects with the first Endpoint that responds. When calling through a Repeater, the
Gateway must first call that Repeater and establish a communication link with it prior to making contact with
the Endpoint.
Programming Point-to-MultiPoint Call Book
Note: FreeWave recommends using the Network ID feature instead of the Call Book
in a MultiPoint network. If the Network ID feature is used in a MultiPoint
network, no entries are needed in the Call Book of any of the transceivers.
In a MultiPoint network, the Endpoints and Repeaters are not listed in the Gateway's Call Book. An Endpoint
must have the Gateway and any Repeater it is going to use in its Call Book.
The following examples show the Call Books of a MultiPoint network comprised of a Gateway, Repeater, and
Endpoint in which the Endpoint can communicate either through the Repeater or directly to the Gateway:
