PANASONIC A406 REPEATER QUICK SETUP
GUIDE
Optimizing Placement of the Repeater
The TGP600 base unit and A406 repeater has a maximum range of 50 meters.
However, for optimal synchronization between the base unit and the repeater, or
between two repeaters, the devices are recommended to be placed within a
maximum of 40m to 50m of each other. Range may vary depending on environment.
For maximum coverage and noise-free communications, place your repeater:
•
at a convenient, high, and central location, such as on a wall, with no
obstructions between your phones and the repeater;
•
away from electronic appliances such as TVs, radios, personal computers,
wireless devices or other phones;
•
away from radio transmitters such as external antennas of mobile phone cell
stations (avoid putting the repeater on a bay window or near a window);
•
away from objects that could interfere with reception such as wire fences,
thick walls, radiators, and metal shelving.
The repeater is for indoor use only.
To optimize the placement of your repeater:
1.
Use the signal strength indicator on the TGP600/TPA60 cordless handset to
determine a viable location where you wish to extend the range of your base
unit. The signal strength should still be strong where the repeater will be
placed.
2.
Once a suitable location for the repeater is found, turn on the repeater by
connecting the AC adaptor. If the
indicator on the repeater turns
red
or
amber
, this indicates that the signal strength is too weak for the repeater to
function. Re-position the repeater to a place where the indicator turns
green
.
3.
Check that that repeater is providing adequate coverage for your needs.
