In a MultiPoint network, the Slaves and Repeaters are not listed in the Master's Call Book. A Slave must
have the Master and any Repeater it is going to use in its Call Book.
The following example shows the Call Books of a MultiPoint system comprised of a Master, Repeater and
Slave in which the Slave can communicate either through the Repeater or directly to the Master:
MultiPoint Master Call Book (Unit Serial Number 555-0001)
Entry Number
Repeater1
Repeater2
(0)
000-0000
(1)
000-0000
No serial number entries are necessary in the Master’s Call Book.
MultiPoint Repeater Call Book (Unit Serial Number 555-0002)
Entry Number
Repeater1
Repeater2
(0)
555-0001
(1)
000-0000
MultiPoint Slave Call Book (Unit Serial Number 555-0003).
Entry Number
Repeater1
Repeater2
(0)
555-0001
(1)
555-0002
(2)
000-0000
At times it may be desirable to force a Slave to go through a specific MultiPoint Repeater. In this scenario,
the Slave’s Call Book should contain only the serial number for that Repeater as the entry on line 0.
Note:
If the network ID option is used, no entries are needed in the Call Book of any of the transceivers
in a MultiPoint system.

In a MultiPoint network, a Slave Transceiver can be programmed to roam between Masters and
Repeaters by using the MultiPoint Extended Call Book functionality. A slave with its Call Book configured
as the following example will communicate with any transceiver whose serial number appears in any of
the three columns. This functionality is enabled by setting Network ID to 255, 999-9999 as the last entry
in the first and second columns, and
Entry to Call
to ALL.
Entry to Call is ALL
Entries at the bottom of
the Number and
Repeater1 Columns are
999-9999
