Turning on the Unit (for MDT and Repeater)
MDT and Repeater devices come from the factory in a powered off state. They can be powered
on using a hidden button under the label.
The yellow circle in the photo below shows where the hidden button is located on the
enclosure. It may take a few times to get the feel of the button, but an LED in the clear
window to the right gives you feedback when the button is pushed.
• To turn a unit ON, press and hold the button until the LED starts to blink (about four
seconds).
• After about 30 seconds the LED flash frequency should change from slow to fast. After
another 30 seconds or so, the LED will stay solid for 10 seconds than go out. The long flash
indicates the unit is communicating with the network.
• To turn a unit OFF, press and hold the button again unit the LED flashes twice (about four
seconds).
LED Flash Indication States during power-up:
Slow flash: The unit is listening for a DCAP and/or a WAM network
Rapid Flash: The unit has heard a DCAP and/or a WAM network beacon and is in process
of joining the system.
Solid Flash: The unit has confirmation that it has successfully joined the WAM network.
LED Flash indication States when button is momentarily pressed:
Single Flash: The unit is in a light sleep mode. It will wake up every 10 minutes to listen
for a WAM network. This mode can prematurely drain the batteries if no
WAM network is nearby.
Double Flash: The unit is OFF
Long on: The unit is part of a WAM network. Stays on for about 10 seconds.
