Wireless Repeater

AC and Solar Powered

The Wireless Repeater receives data from any compatible transmitter and re-transmits it to any compatible Vantage

Pro2 receiver. The repeater extends the transmission range and improves reception between the transmitter and the

receiver.

Each repeater has a transmitting and receiving range of between 200' to 1000' (75 to 300 m) depending upon the

environment. The repeater can listen for up to eight different transmitter signals and can pass those signals on to

another repeater or to any number of receivers.

AC-powered repeaters (# 7626) include an AC-power adapter and a battery. Solar-powered repeaters (# 7627) include

a solar power panel, regulator, and battery.
