ESTeem Models 195MHC
Any
ESTeem
Model
195M,
195H
or
195C
in
the
wireless
network
can
be
used
as
a
repeater
to
reach
a
remote
location.
Manually
entering
repeater
routes
in
a
terminal
for
testing
a
connection
(connect
command)
or
remote
programming
(program
command)
is
as
simple
as
adding
the
routing
in
the
address
with
the
repeaters
identified
by
commas.
For
example,
using
Figure
1,
if
your
computer
is
connected
to
the
ESTeem
195M/H/C
at
the
Master
Station
and
you
want
to
connect
to
address
21,
y
our
command
would
be
“connect
3,21”.
Also
if
you
wished
to
connect
to
address
30
from
the
Master
Station
your
command
would
be
“connect
3,20,40,30”.
Configuring
Route
and
Append
Tables
When
using
the
PLC
emulation
modes,
the
repeater
configuration
will
be
different
for
the
Master
and
Remote
locations
in
a
network.
You
will
need
to
configure
the
repeater
routing
table
for
the
Master
ESTeem
only.
The
Master
ESTeem
is
the
ESTeem
connected
to
the
PLC
that
is
initiating
communication
to
remote
PLC’s
through
other
remote
stations.
Do
not
program
the
repeater
configuration
in
the
repeating
ESTeems
or
the
remote
ESTeems.
Figure
1
shows
a
complex,
16
node
site
with
four
(4)
repeater
routes.
This
example
will
illustrate
the
terms
used
in
the
utility
and
how
they
correspond
to
the
stations
in
your
site.
Look
in
Figure
1
and
note
that
four
of
the
ESTeems
will
relay
the
radio
signal
for
other
ESTeems
(addresses
3,
5,
20
and
40).
These
are
the
repeater
routes.
A
total
of
four
repeater
routes
will
need
to
be
completed
for
this
site.
Route
1:
To
complete
the
first
repeater
route
entry,
refer
to
Figure
1
and
find
repeater
address
5
(Route
1).
The
ESTeem/PLC
addresses
that
use
this
route
are
addresses
25
‐
28.
In
the
195M/H/C
Configuration
Utility
select
the
Route/Append
tab
and
press
the
Edit
Tables
button
(Figure
2
will
be
displayed).
In
Route
Entry
01
enter
the
repeater
address
(Address
5).
Scroll
down
the
page
and
find
Append
Entry
01
and
enter
the
Repeater
Route
and
address
group
and
will
use
this
repeater
site
(Figure
3).
Technical
Tip
:
A
repeater
route
consists
of
any
ESTeem
in
the
network
that
repeats
information
to
another
modem.

Technical
Tip
:
The
maximum
number
of
memory
locations
for
any

When
possible,
try
and

as
many
addresses
together
as
you
can
to
save
available
memory
locations.
