7.0 KIRK Repeater
7.1 The KIRK Repeater
In some situations you might need to expand the coverage area of the KIRK Wireless Server 500.
A KIRK Repeater adds a larger area to the already existing coverage area.
Please note the following:
•
The KIRK Repeater does not add capacity, i.e. further channels, but only a larger
coverage area.
•
The KIRK Repeater can only be registered on the system when placed within the
coverage area of the KIRK Wireless Server 500 itself or an already installed KIRK
Repeater.
The KIRK Wireless Server 500 contains 6 available speech channels in the coverage area of the
KIRK Wireless Server.
A KIRK Repeater covers either 2 or 4 simultaneous speech channels depending on the model. A
repeater, ”borrows” the speech channels from the KIRK Wireless Server 500 and do
not
add
additional channels to the system’s 6 channels in total.
Each handset uses one channel when making a call – internal or external.
Thus, in total 6 handsets are able to handle traffic simultaneously.
When 6 handsets are ”in the air ” the system sends out a busy signal. On KIRK Handsets a
flashing antenna icon in the bottom left side of the display indicates that
the system is busy.
