Serial Repeater ID programming (PBX option only)
This function is used to control up to 3 repeaters in a chain configuration on a PBX
system. To ensure correct operation (and to avoid circular linking), each repeater
must be assigned a different chain-level (1 – 3). The first repeater (nearest the cell
station) is assigned chain-level 1, each additional repeater will then be assigned an
incremental number (up to 3), the highest number being assigned to the repeater
furthest removed from the cell station.
By default, a repeater is registered to chain-level 1 when first registered to a cell
station. After registration, the chain-level may be changed to a different chain-level.
Additional repeaters can be registered to operate on the same chain-level, this will
allow star configurations on each chain-level. All repeaters and cell stations must
have a unique Radio Part Number (R.P.N.).
There can be 6 repeaters per chain level. Chain-level 1 and chain-level 2 repeaters
can support another 6 repeaters.
There follows 2 example setups, showing both star and chain configurations.
