Installation & User Manual
Troubleshooting
The repeater unit contains no user serviceable parts and should not
require maintenance. Two LEDs on the unit will indicate its current
operating state.
Indication Cause
Action
Power LED is off,
status LED is off
The repeater does not have
power applied to it
Check the power supply
connection.
Power LED is on,
status LED is off
The repeater is operating
normally
None.
Power LED is on,
status LED is
amber and flashing
The repeater has reduced
its downlink gain to
maintain network
compatibility. The signal
received at the outdoor
antenna may be too strong,
or there is feedback
between the indoor and
outdoor antenna.
Try relocating the outdoor
antenna, or rotating it (if a
directional antenna was
used). A RF pad may
need to be installed at
the outdoor antenna to
reduce gain.
Power LED is on,
status LED is
green and flashing
The repeater has reduced
its uplink gain to maintain
network compatibility. This
is usually caused by a
handset being used too
close to the interior
antenna.
None. The repeater will
automatically return to full
gain when conditions
permit. If the condition
persists when no handset
is nearby, relocate the
indoor and/or outdoor
antennas to get more
isolation.
Power LED is off,
status LED is red
and flashing
The repeater is off-line due
to a high temperature fault.
The repeater will restart
automatically when the unit
cools down
Determine the cause of
the overheating (e.g., hot
environment, inadequate
airflow). Possibly re-
locate the amplifier to a
cooler location.
Power LED is
flashing, status
LED is red
The repeater has detected
an internal fault and is off-
line.
Interrupt power to the unit
to see if it returns to
normal operation,
otherwise service is
required.
