DDING REPEATERS TO THE NETWORK
If a device is not reachable after installation (it fails communication with the base unit), it
could be necessary to install one or more repeaters in intermediate points between the device
and the base unit.
To add a repeater to the network, connect the internal battery to the repeater and repeat the
installation procedure from step only for the repeater.
