WIRELESS DUAL BAND REPEATER KIT
DoorKing Part Number
2372-080
The wireless dual band repeater kit (DBR) extends and expands the wireless communication range between an access control system and wireless
tracker expansion board or “tracker board”. It gets installed between the wireless devices that are too far or obstructed from each other to reliably
communicate with each other. It will receive a signal sent to it and repeat that signal to the next wireless device. Multiple DBRs can be used in the
same communication line of a tracker board. The signal range of a DBR is
approximately 500 ft direct-line-of-sight
with no signal interference.
IMPORTANT:
Install the repeater
so the antenna is in a
location that is
NOT
surrounded by metal
and is in free air as
high as possible above
the ground. Minimum
15 ft above ground
recommended.
RF Range:
Set as shown.
1/2” thick wall PVC
conduit recommended
(not supplied).
Metal conduit may
interfere with wireless
signal.
Base side communicates with the
wireless Baseboard of the 1830
series. The
Channel
and
ID
of the
Base side MUST match the
Channel
and
Net ID
of the Baseboard.
DO NOT
set Base side the same as
the Remote side.
LOW PWR
switch
ON
-Up Position,
board is put in a low power operating
mode where both LED signal displays
will turn OFF when not needed.
Remote side communicates with
the wireless Tracker board. The
Channel
and
ID
of the Remote
side MUST match the
Channel
and
Net ID
of the Tracker board.
DO NOT
set Remote side the
same as the Base side.
Up to 5 Dual Band Repeaters (DBR) can be used in a cascade format to extend
signal distance. The Base Side of 2nd DBR MUST match the Channel and ID of
the Remote Side from the 1st DBR and so on.
Make sure the Channel and ID combinations are
UNIQUE
for every DBR in the cascade.

Range testing is HIGHLY recommended
before FINAL installation.
Important Antenna Note:
Antenna range
WILL VARY
GREATLY
depending on individual
setup: Antenna height above the ground, background signal
interference, physical obstructions (trees, buildings etc.).
Adverse weather (rain)
CAN
also affect antenna range.

Note:
DoorKing offers a Wireless Test Range
Kit (P/N 1514-130) to allow easy testing of
the wireless signal between 2 devices at
chosen locations
BEFORE
installation of the
devices. The self-powered test kit measures
the wireless signal between 2 devices in
ANY
chosen locations. Ensuring that a good signal
can be achieved before installation occurs.
Example:
The wireless baseboard
MUST be set to:
ID: E CH: 4
Example:
The wireless
tracker board
MUST be set to:
ID: 2 CH: 9
