3.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
The following checks are recommended after receipt of the equipment from shipping
agent:
1. Check for any external damage that could have occurred in transit. If damage
is found, report to the shipping agent and to the supplier immediately.
2. Check that all items on the packing slip are present. If any are missing, report
to the supplier immediately.
3.2 INSTALLATION
The Repeater is designed for mounting on a flat surface. The unit can be mounted in
any orientation as desired. Proceed as follows:
1. Locate a suitable mounting location allowing a clearance to route mating cable
and connectors to the unit. Drill 2 holes on 5.9" centers.
2. Adjust uplink and downlink attenuators to their correct settings. The internal
independent uplink and downlink attenuators can be set by the DIP switches on
the bottom of the unit. Steps are available for 1 dB, 2 dB, 4 dB, 8 dB and 16 dB
of attenuation. Setting the switch to "ON" inserts the corresponding attenuation
value. Refer to figure 3-1 for location of the uplink and downlink attenuator
switches. In most installations, these attenuators are typically set to the same
value.
3. Mount the unit to the wall.
4. Connect "BASE ANTENNA." to the cable leading to the base antenna.
5. Connect "DISTRIBUTION ANTENNA." to the cable leading to the distribution
antenna(s).
6. Connect the supplied external DC power source to the DC input. The unit may
be powered by DC voltages in the range of 9-12 VDC (center positive) . The unit
is typically powered with the 12 VDC adapter provided with the unit.
