Verifying Communication with Multiple Transmitters
Note: All transmitters in the network must have unique IDs in order for any repeater to communicate with them.
1. Find out and record all the Transmitter IDs the wireless repeater will repeat. Use the
“Transmitter and Repeater ID Worksheet” located inside the front cover to record the
transmitter IDs used. See “Verify Transmitter ID” on page 13 for information on
determining the Transmitter ID for all stations in the network.
2. On the Transmitter ID switch, set all the Transmitter IDs you want the repeater to
acquire to ON and make sure all the other Transmitter IDs are set to OFF.
3. Put the repeater into Test Mode by turning on repeater DIP Switch #4. When trying to
acquire stations, the repeater goes through the following process:
• It looks for a station signal for ten minutes, with the STAT LED flashing red when
it detects a signal not associated with a station during this time.
• It flashes yellow if it has found some stations but not all, and then;
• It flashes green when all stations are found. For each station found, the TX LED
flashes immediately after the STAT LED, indicating that it is repeating the data
from that station.
Note: See “Maintenance and Troubleshooting” on page 36 if the above LED pattern does not display.
4. Turn the Repeater DIP Switch #4 to OFF once the test is complete, otherwise it will
significantly shorten battery life.
