2.
Activate the tamper switch on the repeater to which you
want the signals to be retransmitted. The retransmitting
repeater should signalize the learn-in with LEDs D1 to D8.
3.
Disable the learn-in mode on the retransmitting repeater.
Repeater configuration limits
Maximum number of repeaters in a repeater's database: 4.
Maximum number of sensors in a repeater's database: 64.
Note:
The maximum number of sensors should not exceed the
maximum number of sensors supported by the panel. For more
information, see panel specifications.
Maximum number of repeaters in daisy chain: 4.
Maximum number of repeaters in one system: 16.
Removing a single sensor/repeater from the
repeater
1.
On the repeater, set the DIP switch 7 to the ON position.
2.
Perform a learn-in procedure on the sensor you want to
delete.
3.
The LEDs on the repeater will start blinking in a
characteristic pattern - from D4 and D5 outwards.
4.
When finished, set the DIP switch 7 to the Off position.
5.
Now remove the sensor also from the panel/receiver
database using the panel's menu.
Installation tips for the repeater
If during installation it is not possible to achieve an optimal
signal because of a high noise floor (when LEDs show:
minimum level – problem):
1.
Perform an additional test, checking if Minimum Level /
Range Limit is achieved.
2.
If there are any objects that are covering the repeater, try
to move them so the repeater has free space around it.
3.
Try to move the repeater 10 to 20 cm along the wall to
lower any kind of RF noise.
4.
Find another spot in the room where a power socket is
available.
If during installation it is not possible to achieve an optimal
signal because of the signal quality level of packets (when
LEDs show: minimum level / range limit):
1.
Perform an additional test, checking the High Noise Level
(Diagnostic button option).
2.
If there are any objects that are covering the repeater, try
to move them so the repeater has free space around it.
3.
Try to move the repeater 10 to 20 cm around the wall to
lower any kind of RF noise.
4.
Find another spot in the room where a power socket is
available.

Deleting the repeater's entire database
1.
On the repeater, set the DIP switches 7 and 8 to the On
position. Diodes D1 to D8 will start to show a characteristic
pattern.
2.
Wait at least 5 seconds. During this timeout the database
is not being deleted. There is the possibility to stop the
process by switching DIP switch 7 and/or 8 to Off.
3.
After the timeout the LEDs on the repeater will show a
different pattern – from D4 and D5 outwards. The
database is being deleted.
4.
Set the DIP switches 7 and 8 to the Off position.
5.
Remove the sensors from the panel/receiver database
using the panel's menu, if necessary.
LED indication and the Diagnostic button
Note:
For the LED indication and the Diagnostic button to
work, DIP switches 7 and 8 must be both in the Off position.
When the repeater cover is opened, the diagnostic LEDs start
to show one of the following values.
Signal Quality Level
When any of the tamper buttons (there is a front tamper on the
top of the repeater, and a back tamper on the bottom) is
released, the LEDs D2 to D8 (from LED D2 upwards) start to
show the quality level of packets received from known sensors.
LED D1 flashes once every second.
D8 excellent quality
D7 very good quality
D6 good quality
D5 poor quality
D4 minimum level
D3 problem / out of range
D2 out of range
Noise Floor Level
Push the Diagnostic button once more to show the noise floor
level from the last transmission on LEDs D2 to D8 (from LED
D8 downwards). LED D1 will flash twice every second.
D8 low noise level
D7 good level
D6 acceptable level
D5 poor level
D4 high level
D3 very high level
D2 not install – jamming
Installer Mode
Push the Diagnostic button once more to enter the installer test
mode.
In this mode the receiver sensitivity is reduced by 8 dB. LEDs
D2 to D8 (from LED D2 upwards) show the signal strength of
the last sensor heard whether it is learned-in or not. LED D1
will flash thrice every second.
D8 excellent strength
D7 very good strength
D6 good strength
D5 poor strength
D4 minimum strength
D3 problem / out of range
D2 out of range
