Here you can change the settings for the repeater.

 

 

Items you can change:

 

Always Wake

 

In some cases where the repeater is manually powered on and off you may

 

 

want it to wake all sleeping modules within its range. Set this option to Yes 

to enable this. The modules you wake should have their own Sleep Delay 

settings set so they go back to sleep after stopping receiving Stay Awake 

messages from the data consumer (PC or handheld).

 

 

Sleep Delay

 

If the repeater is to be battery powered and you want to operate in low power

 

mode you can employ this delay. Once the repeater stops hearing Stay Awake

 

 

messages from the data consumer (PC or handheld etc) it will go to sleep after

 

 

this amount of time.

 

The repeater will wake when any other module is woken.

 

 

Battery Low Level

 

Select the battery voltage below which the repeater will report a low battery.

 

It does this by making all repeated devices report a low battery so the data

 

consumer (a handheld or PC software etc) will be able to detect a problem.

 

 

The battery level applies to the voltage seen after 3V regulation. The default is 
2.2V and can be left at this when the repeater is powered externally.

 

 

If the repeater is battery powered and you wish to disable this feature 

select 2.0V
