EN5040/EN5040-T/EN5040-20T High Power
Repeater with Transformer
Installation and Operation Manual
1 Overview
The Inovonics high power repeater receives, decodes and retransmits
signals at enhanced power from Inovonics devices. It acts as a range
expander for any valid Inovonics transmission, including signals from other
high power repeaters. High power repeaters can be layered as necessary,
allowing Inovonics systems to scale from small commercial sites to
complete campuses consisting of several buildings. The high power
repeater features AC power loss and jam detection, as well as case tamper
and wall tamper detection. Input power is provided by listed class 2
transformer, Good Power Electronics, Ltd. T48141428V010G or
T48141428V020G, MPI-NEO Co., Ltd. W48A-K1429-2T.
Note: For UL 2560 installations, refer to the EN6080 Area Control Gateway
User Manual; for other UL installations, refer to the EN4216MR Installation
and Operation Manual, the EN4232MR Installation and Operation Manual,
or the EN7285 Installation Instructions.

Operation LEDs
Decode LED: Flashes when any recognizable RF transmission is received.
Transmit LED Lit when transmitting an RF transmission.
Low Battery Fault LED: Lit when the high power repeater has a low battery.
Power LED: Lit when receiving power. The LED lights green when the unit
is receiving line power; red when receiving battery power.
Note: If mapped to an output, the high power repeater will send the AC loss
message to the EN6080 area control gateway when receiving power from
the backup battery.

2 Installation and Startup
2.1 Installation Notes
• These products are designed to be maintained by professional
security technicians
• Products are tested for indoor use
• All products should be manually tested weekly
2.2 Select the Frequency Band
EchoStream devices are able to use a range of radio frequencies, and must
be configured for your geographic area. This device ships with a default
frequency range of 902-928 MHz for use in North America. If you are using
the device in North America, skip to 2.3, “Choose Messaging Mode”; if you
are using the device in Australia or New Zealand, you will need to configure
it.
1. Use a small screwdriver to press the top housing release tab and
separate the housing (Figure 2).
2. Place a selection jumper on the frequency band selection pins
appropriate to your geographic area (Figure 2).
• Place the jumper on the left two pins, marked AU, to set the frequency
range to 915-928 MHz for Australia.
• Place the jumper on the right two pins, marked NZ, to set the
frequency range to 921-928 MHz for New Zealand.
Note: Only devices set for use in North America are configured for UL
installations.
2.3 Choose Messaging Mode
The EchoStream commercial mesh network includes two kind of
messaging: broadcast messaging and directed messaging. The high power
repeater includes a messaging selection option to protect the integrity of
your system. The high power repeater ships with a default setting of
broadcast messaging. If you are installing the device in a broadcast
messaging network, skip to section 2.6, “Register the High Power
Repeater”; if you are installing the high power repeater in a directed
messaging network, you will need to configure it.
