To plug into a standard 110 VAC receptacle use PN DP255, a 110 VAC to 5VDC Power
Supply.
For use on a boat or RV, plug PN DP515, a 12 VDC to 5 VDC Power Cable, into a 12
VDC cigarette style power receptacle. The 12 VDC power supply has a micro-processor
controller to turn the repeater off if not properly installed. If a
red flashing light
appears
on the power supply, relocate the inside and outside antennas until the power supply and
repeater have a constant green light. The power supply can be reset by unplugging the
cigarette adapter from the power source.
d. AMPLIFIER/REPEATER STATUS
The DA4000MR unit is designed with a status/fault indicator to indicate proper unit
functionality. The chart below details the different LED color indicators.
LED
Amplifier/Repeater Status
Green solid light
Normal Status
Yellow/orange flickering light
Degree of cellular transmission activity
Solid Red light
TURN OFF, Fault needs immediate corrective
action
No light
No power to the DA4000MR amplifier/repeater
or unit is damaged
If a red flashing light appears on the DP515 power supply, relocate the inside and outside
antennas until the power supply has a constant green light. The power supply can be reset
by unplugging the cigarette adapter from the power source.
GREEN solid light
Normal status
Flashing RED light
Power supply stops power to repeater until
antennas are properly installed.
Green light on repeater
– shows normal Status and DA4000MR is operating normally
unless coverage area is only 1-2’ from inside antenna. If coverage area is only 1-2’,
DA4000MR repeater has an extremely weak outside signal or is automatically powering
down to prevent an oscillation. Re-locate antennas until coverage area is greater.
Green/yellow/orange flickering light on repeater
- shows that cellular activity is being
transmitted through the DA4000MR unit unless cell phone is operating on 1900 MHz.
The light will remain green with low levels of cellular transmission and change to
flickering yellow/orange as transmission increases. The light may remain green with low
levels of transmission. When a yellow/orange light is present, it must always go back to
green when call is finished. If it does not go back to green, re-locate antennas until light
goes back to green.
Solid Red light
on Repeater
– indicates a fault. Turn
OFF
power switch and proceed
with the following corrective actions:
•
The red light indicates that the inside and outside antennas are located too close to
each other and need to be re-located. A typical installation requires that the inside
and outside antennas have a minimum separation distance of 20 feet and be
separated by an exterior wall and roof. If the inside and outside antennas are not
20 feet apart or more, re-locate the antennas.
