Step 3. Initializing a repeater (range extender)
Skip this chapter, if you do not use a repeater.
Wireless systems must first
“recognize” each other if they are to communicate. Initialization of the
PlantControl unit with the repeater must therefore be carried out first.
Commissioning of already initialized repeaters:
If the PlantControl unit and repeaters have been initialized already at the factory (would be labeled on
PlantControl central unit), no initialization must be performed.
Initializing a repeater
Initialize > Repeater > OK-button
Before you begin initializing the repeater, you should create a simple plan with the position of the
individual components. The plan should show the assignment of repeaters to the PlantControl respectively
how the repeaters are assigned between themselves.
For a better understanding see the following example with a total of 5 repeaters, wherein repeater 1 is
directly assigned to the PlantControl and repeater 2 to 5 are connected with the PlantControl via repeater
number 1.

The following display shows the settings (inputs) for the above example of repeater number 1.

1. Select Initialize > Repeater > OK-button.
2. Before initializing a repeater, you must first make the following settings:

Repeater Number: Here, number 1 is displayed as the first repeater.

in direction of Controller: Enter here over which other repeater, a repeater is connected to the
PlantControl central unit. As in the example above no other repeater is placed in direction to the
PlantControl enter here the number zero (number 0 = Controller). Otherwise press the OK-button
and enter the repeater number, which is between repeater 1 and the Plant Control.

in direction Sensor: You can assign up to five other repeaters to a certain repeater. Therefore, you
have to enter here which other repeaters are connected to the repeater number 1. In this example,
the repeater number 2, 3, 4 and then 5 were entered.

Place the repeater approximately at a distance of 1 meter from the controller and press the control
button on the repeater for 5 seconds. Now release the button. Once the controller has detected a
repeater, you label it with the repeater number assigned by the system. You can then initialize the
next repeater. When the repeater has not been detected, “failed” will be displayed. In such a case,
the procedure from point 1 must be repeated.
