PART NUMBER:
IIOT-REPEATER
DESCRIPTION
The IIOT-REPEATER works in conjunction with other
Synapse-enabled devices to create a robust mesh network
for use in a variety of IIoT solutions such as lighting
controls, energy monitoring and air handling.

CAUTION
•
The IIOT-REPEATER must be installed in accordance
with national, state, and local electrical codes and
requirements.
•
All work must be performed by qualified personnel.
•
Disconnect all power before installation or service.
•
NEEDED MATERIAL
•
Mounting Hardware:
Using Hardware appropriate
for the installation, use all four (4) 0.197” diameter
mounting holes to mount the unit.
•
Conduit:
To maintain the IP rating of the unit, it must
be installed with the included cable gland
OR with a
weather-proof
¾
” conduit fitting at the power entry
point.
INSTALLATION
1.
The IIOT-REPEATER must be mounted vertically with the
power coming out the bottom of the unit, or the wireless
signal may be compromised. DO NOT install the IIOT-
REPEATER horizontally.
2.
Select an installation location for the IIOT-REPEATER that
provides line of sight to at least two other Synapse IIOT
hardware devices. These devices can be another
repeater, a lighting controller, or the site controller itself.
It may be necessary to add more than one repeater to
prevent a single point of failure in the RF network.
(See Figure 1)
Note:
IIOT hardware that utilize sleep mode should not
be considered part of the IIOT repeater network)
3.
The antenna relies on free space around them for best RF
performance so avoid installation near network cabling,
AC power lines or within metal enclosures. Finally avoid
installing the IIOT-REPEATER in direct sunlight.
4.
Using Hardware appropriate for the installation, use all
four (4) 0.197” diameter mounting holes to mount the
unit.
5.
With the IIOT-REPEATER mounted, you must have a
licensed electrician pull power into the device according
to national, state, and local electrical codes and
requirements. The electrician is to connect the LINE and
NEUTRAL through the power entry point inside the
device. (See Figure 2)
NOTE:
A Power entry cable is not provided. The power
entry point is
¾
”. The provided cable gland or a sealed
power entry connector and conduit is required in order to
maintain the IP65 rating.
NOTE:
If multiple conductors pass through the cable
gland, they must be in a single sheath in order to maintain
the IP65 rating. Recommended Cable diameter is 4-8 mm.
NOTE:
The IIOT-REPEATER holds a IP65 rating when the
door is latched and all entry points are properly sealed.
Failure to do so will void the IP65 rating.

WARNING AND CAUTIONS:
•
TO AVOID FIRE, SHOCK, OR DEATH; TURN OFF POWER
AT CIRCUIT
BREAKER OR FUSE AND TEST THAT POWER IS OFF BEFORE WIRING!
•
Risk of Electric Shock -
More than one disconnect switch may be required to
de-energize the equipment before servicing.
•
To be installed and/or used in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and
regulations.
INSTALLATION GUIDE
WARNING AND CAUTIONS:
•
If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult an
electrician.
•
Use this device with copper or copper clad wire only.
•
Disconnect power at circuit breaker or fuse when servicing, installing or removing
fixture or changing lamps.
•
Mounting: It is critical to the performance of this device that the antenna be
oriented vertically. It must point straight up or down for proper operation.
