In the example below, the console is set up to receive an ISS station on transmitter
ID 1 from repeater A.

6. For each station using a repeater, select the station and turn on the repeater function

and select the correct repeater ID.

7. Press DONE to continue to the other screens in the Setup Mode, or press and hold

DONE to return to the Current Weather Mode.

Note:

In console with the October 2005 version of firmware, the only way to exit Repeater Setup mode is
to press DONE to continue to the next setup screen.

Verifying Setup

To verify that you have successfully set up your console to receive a repeater in the
console’s Current Weather Mode:

View the transmitter information displaying at the bottom of the console screen.
If the transmitter ID being repeated is displayed and an “X” flashes in the bottom
right-hand corner of the ticker tape, the transmitter is being repeated and received by
the console successfully.

The repeater’s information also displays at the bottom of the console’s diagnostics
screens.

Clearing Repeater ID

If a repeater ID is being displayed in Screen 2 and you are not using a repeater with the
selected station, you must turn off the repeater function to receive station information
successfully.

In Setup Screen 2:

For consoles with May 2005 firmware, press WIND repeatedly so that the console
cycles through the list of repeater IDs (Repeaters A-H) until the section where the
repeater ID was displayed is blank. Press DONE to continue to the next screen or press
and hold DONE to return to the Current Weather Mode.

For consoles with October 2005 firmware, press 2ND and then press WIND repeatedly
so that the console cycles through the list of repeater IDs (Repeaters A-H) until the sec-
tion where the repeater ID was displayed is blank. Press DONE to continue to the next
screen or press and hold DONE to return to the Current Weather Mode.
