✦ Combo Network — Multiple Transmitters AND Multiple Repeaters
A combo network can have any combinations of the multiple transmitter
network on page 12 and the daisy-chain network on page 10. In the
example below, the data all flows in one direction; it enters the network
at a point somewhere upstream and exits the network somewhere
downstream.
Combo Network- Multiple Transmitters and Multiple Repeaters
Note: No matter how closely they are spaced, no two repeaters should be set up to listen to the same
transmitter directly—this only generates interference and can cause the network to fail.
To set up a network:
1. Set ID codes for each transmitter and receiver.
See your DavisTalk-compatible transmitter and receiver installation man-
ual for instructions on how to set transmitter and receiver ID Codes.
2. Choose locations for the farthest transmitter, its repeater and its receiver.
Set the repeater to listen for that transmitter’s signal (see “Quick Install
Instructions” on page 3 for details). Make sure the repeater is receiving and
then re-transmitting the signal properly.
3. Add any additional repeaters as necessary, one at a time.
Make sure you set each one’s Repeater ID code (see “Setting the Repeater
ID Codes on the Repeater” on page 10 for details).
4. Put all the units in test mode to test the transmission of the data from the
transmitter, through each repeater, to the receiver.
