NOTE: TURN ALL UPLINK DIP SWITCHES TO ON AND ADJUST
THEM BACK ONE STEP AT A TIME UNTIL UPLINK CONNECTIVITY
IS MADE WITH THE EMERGENCY RADIO TOWER.
ATTENUATION THROUGH SENTRY SOFTWARE IS CUMULATIVE
WITH THAT OF THE BOOSTER’S DIP SWITCHES.
5.2 DIP Switch Configuration
By default, all DIP switches are turned in the OFF position, which provides maximum gain to all channels.
To access digital channelization, see "Chapter 7: Sentry Configuration & Monitoring" on page 26. Note that attenuation made
through Sentry software is cumulative with that of the Booster’s DIP switches.
BEFORE INITIAL CONFIGURATION, set booster switches with high, but not full, attenuation (as full attenuation would cause the
band to shut off).
DURING CONFIGURATION, you may add gain incrementally until the signal level has improved enough to meet safety requirements.
Note that red flashing lights indicate the system has detected oscillationforthecorrespondingchannel(s).Thebandwillturn offif
adjustments are not made. When adjusting booster attenuation, full power is not always the best option. The goal is to obtain a signal
level throughout the building that meets safety requirements.
The following diagrams and notes explain how to interpret, and use, these switch banks. DIP
