Routine Maintenance
NOTICE: Clean the repeater with a soft dry cloth while in service.
The SLR 5000 Series Repeater and ancillary equipment have been designed with state-of-the-art
technology and operate under software control, thus requiring minimal routine maintenance. Virtually
all repeater operating parameters are monitored and self-corrected by the Modem and the firmware it
runs, which makes adjustments and tuning virtually unnecessary.
Provided that the equipment is installed in an area which meets the specified environmental
requirements, the only routine maintenance task required is the calibration of the repeater reference
oscillator circuit.
