Before Use

Instructions
To ensure optimum performance and reliability of the repeater, please read the following instructions carefully.
Operation Environment
The repeater must be installed in a dry and well-ventilated place with an ambient temperature of -30 ℃ to+60 ℃ and relative humidity of not more than 95%.
Voltage Check
Check whether the input voltage is within the operating voltage of the repeater (DC power supply: 13.6V±15%; AC power supply: 90V to 264V).
Wall-mount Bracket Installation
(Optional)
If you need to install the repeater on the wall, please contact your dealer to purchase a wall-mount bracket.

Installation Tools
An electric drill and a T10 Torx screwdriver.
Installation Procedures
A. Install the wall-mount bracket.

Drill three holes into the wall, with each hole aligned with those of the wall-mount bracket.
Put the plastic wall anchor into the drilled holes. Skip this step if the wall is not a concrete wall.
Use three ST4X16 self-tapping screws to fasten the bracket on the wall.

Note: Make sure the wall can support the repeater’s weight before drilling.
B. Install the repeater on the bracket.

Align the screws on the upper side of the repeater with the notches of the bracket and mount the repeater onto the bracket, as shown in the figure below;
Move the repeater side to side slightly to ensure the screws ﬁt into the bottom of the notch.

Product Check
Check whether the repeater works properly by observing the seven LED indicators in the front panel after the repeater is powered on via the AC Power Switch.

Status Indication

The LED indicators on the front panel indicate the following repeating status:

LED Indicator Name

| LED Indication|

Repeater Status

---|---|---
Digital Mode LED Indicator| Blue| The repeater is operating in digital mode.
Analog Mode LED Indicator| Yellow| The repeater is operating in analog mode.
Slot A TX LED Indicator| Red| Analog mode: The repeater is transmitting.
Digital mode: The repeater is transmitting in Slot A.
Slot A RX LED Indicator| Green| Analog mode: The repeater is receiving.
Digital mode: The repeater is receiving in Slot A.
Slot B TX LED Indicator| Red| Digital mode: The repeater is transmitting in Slot B.
Slot B RX LED Indicator| Green| Digital Mode: The repeater is receiving in Slot B.
Alarm LED Indicator| Red| Alarm occurs. The alarm LED indicator will remain red until all alarms are eliminated.

Alarm Information

The repeater will have real-time detection of its operation status automatically. When it is operating abnormally, the alarm LED indicator on the front panel will glow red until all alarms are eliminated. When an alarm event occurs, you can diagnose and solve the problem via the RDAC application provided by us or contact your local dealer for technical support. Alarm types and causes areas listed below:

Alarm Type

|

Alarm Cause

---|---
Abnormal External Power| High Voltage: The input voltage is higher than 15.8V±0.2V.
Low Voltage: The input voltage is lower than 10.8V±0.2V.
High Temperature| The temperature sensor detects a temperature above 85℃.
Abnormal VSWR| VSWR > 3:1. Over-high VSWR will damage the PA module or even disable it.
