MReX Transceiver User Manual v1.92 Firmware

Store Forward Operation

The MReX can operate as a stand-alone repeater to forward paging messages and also extend wire-

less serial operation. This is an optional feature for the MReX that is not supplied by default.

Transmit and receive configuration should be configured to be the same when forwarding messages.

*RX_PROTO should equal the *TX_PROTO and *RX_MODE should equal *TX_MODE.

Typically the MReX would be configured as follows:

Delay of 2 second before forwarding, reject duplicate messages for 10 seconds.

*STORE_FWD=20,10<CR>

Ensure all store forward units have RX_RANGES set to allow all possible CAP codes that are of in-

terest to forward.

The duplicate reject feature is essential key to use when the MReX is been used in a multi-hop store

forward system. If this is set to 0, rejection of duplicated messages are not possible, and messages

may bounce back and forward between repeaters.

Multiple repeaters can be used, but increase message delivery time. Use of more than a single re-

peater in a system is generally less than ideal and typically more powerful transmitters should be

used if multiple store forward repeaters are required.

See the Configuration section on this document for more details on command usage if required.
