Locating Repeater Base Stations
Repeater base stations are subject to the same positioning requirements as
a CDBS
(see
Site Surveys
on page 6)
. Currently the only method for doing a
site survey for a Repeater is in conjunction with an installed CDBS.
As for a CDBS, the correct performance and functioning of a Repeater
requires an accurate site survey. Make sure you include sufficient
overlap between CDBS and Repeater(s).
Installing a Repeater
To install a Repeater, it must be wall mounted and configured. Use the
procedures below to mount and configure a Repeater.
Mounting the Repeater(s)
Each Repeater is supplied with a plug top PSU fitted with 2mtrs of cable that
terminates in a modular plug. Screws and wall plugs for mounting the CDBS
are also supplied.
To mount a Repeater, perform the following:
1. Check the proposed position of the Repeater and ensure that:
– A mains power supply is within 2 metres.
– There is a minimum of 200mm clearance on all sides of the
Repeater.
2. Use the Repeater Wall Mounting Bracket (see figure below) as a
template to mark the required holes.
Ensure that the Repeater is level.
Drill and insert the wall fixings for the No.6 round-head screws.
3. Run the PSU modular plug through the access hole before fixing the
bracket to the wall with the two No. 6 round head screws.
4. Push the PSU modular plug in to it's socket on the Repeater.
5. Slide the Repeater onto the mounting bracket
(a firm push is required to
slide the Repeater lugs over the pins on the wall mounting bracket).
6. Connect the plug top PSU to the mains power supply.
7. The lamp in centre of the front of the Repeater will light as follows:
-
a steady red when in idle state
- will flash red when Repeater is not synchronized with CDBS
- two short flashes whenever a connection is made via Repeater.
