Multiple Transmitters/One Repeater
Installation

A multiple transmitter/one repeater installation differs from a single repeater installation
only in the number of transmitters the repeater listens to and repeats. See “Single
Repeater Installation” on page 13 for
detailed instructions on configuring the transmitter
and console for wireless repeater use.
This section covers the additional steps necessary to configure the repeater to listen to
more than one station of unique type.

Note: There are restrictions to the numbers and types of transmitters allowed in Multiple Transmitters/One

Repeater installations. See “Maximum Number of Transmitters in a Network” on page 9 for transmitter
limitations.

Verifying Repeater ID

The wireless repeater contains a DIP switch used to program
the repeater with a unique identification. DIP switches #1, 2
and 3 on the repeater are used in the same way that DIP
switches are used on all stations. The default repeater ID is
A and the default position for the DIP switches is down or OFF.

Note: For installations in which only one repeater is involved, the repeater should remain on the default ID of A

and should not be changed.
