Installing a Repeater
Use the procedures below to set-up and install a Repeater base station. Note that
unlike normal DBS's, it is not necessary to repeat cable measurement when
installing a Repeater
Configure the Base Stations
Each Repeater needs to be programmed with various settings before it can be used.
Those settings include:
– The CSLC cassette number
– The base station number of DBS with which the Repeater will work
– The base station number which the Repeater should use for itself
To do this you must use the Repeater Setup program
Mounting the Repeater(s)
Each Repeater is supplied with a plug top PSU fitted with 2mtrs of cable that
terminates in a modular plug. Screws/plugs, for wall mounting the CDBS, are also
supplied.
To mount a Repeater, perform the following:
1. Check the proposed position of the Repeater and ensure that:
– A mains power supply is within 2 metres
– There is a minimum of 200mm's clearance on all sides of the Repeater
2. Use the Repeater Wall Mounting Bracket (see figure below) as a template to
mark the required holes.
Ensure that the Repeater is level. Drill and insert the
wall fixings for the No.6 round-head screws.
3. Run the PSU modular plug through the access hole before fixing the bracket to
the wall with the two No. 6 round head screws
4. Push the PSU modular plug in to it's socket on the Repeater
5. Slide the Repeater onto the mounting bracket
(a firm push is required to slide
the Repeater lugs over the pins on the wall mounting bracket)
7. Connect the plug top PSU to the mains power supply. The lamp in centre of the
front of the Repeater will light red for a few moments and then turn to green
