WIRELESS DUAL BAND REPEATER KIT
DoorKing Part Number
2372-080
The wireless dual band repeater kit (DBR) extends and expands the wireless communication range between an access control system and wireless
tracker expansion board or “tracker board”. It gets installed between the wireless devices that are too far or obstructed from each other to reliably
communicate with each other. It will receive a signal sent to it and repeat that signal to the next wireless device. Multiple DBRs can be used in the
same communication line of a tracker board. The signal range of a DBR is approximately 500 ft direct-line-of-sight with no signal interference.
IMPORTANT:
Install the repeater
so the antenna is in a
location that is NOT
surrounded by metal
and is in free air as
high as possible above
the ground. Minimum
15 ft above ground
recommended.
RF Range:
Set as shown.
1/2” thick wall PVC
conduit recommended
(not supplied).
Metal conduit may
interfere with wireless
signal.
Base side communicates with the
wireless Baseboard of the 1830
series. The Channel and ID of the
Base side MUST match the Channel
and Net ID of the Baseboard.
DO NOT set Base side the same as
the Remote side.
LOW PWR switch ON-Up Position,
board is put in a low power operating
mode where both LED signal displays
will turn OFF when not needed.
Remote side communicates with
the wireless Tracker board. The
Channel and ID of the Remote
side MUST match the Channel
and Net ID of the Tracker board.
DO NOT set Remote side the
same as the Base side.
Up to 5 Dual Band Repeaters (DBR) can be used in a cascade format to extend
signal distance. The Base Side of 2nd DBR MUST match the Channel and ID of
the Remote Side from the 1st DBR and so on.
Make sure the Channel and ID combinations are
UNIQUE for every DBR in the cascade.
Installation
Base Side Remote Side
Cascading Dual Band Repeaters
Range testing is HIGHLY recommended
before FINAL installation.
Important Antenna Note:
Antenna range WILL VARY
GREATLY depending on individual
setup: Antenna height above the ground, background signal
interference, physical obstructions (trees, buildings etc.).
Adverse weather (rain) CAN also affect antenna range.

Note: DoorKing offers a Wireless Test Range
Kit (P/N 1514-130) to allow easy testing of
the wireless signal between 2 devices at
chosen locations BEFORE installation of the
devices. The self-powered test kit measures
the wireless signal between 2 devices in ANY
chosen locations. Ensuring that a good signal
can be achieved before installation occurs.
Example:
The wireless baseboard
MUST be set to:
ID: E CH: 4
Example:
The wireless
tracker board
MUST be set to:
ID: 2 CH: 9

When boards are PAIRED: Only card codes/entry codes/remote codes from paired tracker boards will be accepted.
Base Side of 2372: To pair the 2372 Base side with a 2361 Baseboard, the 2372 base side MUST be in an UNPAIRED mode:
Depress the BASE PROGRAM button (SW1) on the 2372 base side for few seconds until the RF LOST LED blinks rapidly and then turns steady RED.
Then press the PAIR button on the 2361 baseboard for few seconds to PAIR with the 2372 BASE side ONLY. Once the 2372 Base side receives a pairing
command from the 2361 baseboard, the middle green LED (RF SYNC) and the bottom red LED (RF LOST) blink rapidly; this indicates it has successfully been paired
with the 2361 Baseboard. The BASE PAIRED LED turns green (D2) and will stay lit on 2372 Base side.

Remote Side of 2372: To pair the 2372 Remote side with the wireless tracker board, unpaired communication must have already been established between the 2.
The RF SECURE LED will remain ON steady red on top of 2358 tracker board. Press the 2372 Remote side PAIRED REMOTE button (SW4) for 3 seconds or
until the 2372 REMOTE PAIRED Blue LED (D10) blinks rapidly. Once 2358 tracker board has been successfully paired to Remote side of 2372,
the RF SECURE LED will turn green and remain lit on 2358 tracker board.
Due to the nature of wireless communications, transmission and reception of data can never be guaranteed. Data may be delayed, corrupted (i.e., have errors) or be
totally lost. Although significant delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices are used in a normal manner with a well-constructed network, DoorKing
wireless products should not be used in situations where failure to transmit or receive data could result in damage of any kind to the user or any other party,
including but not limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. DoorKing, Inc. accepts no responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from delays or
errors in data transmitted or received using DoorKing wireless products, or for failure of DoorKing wireless products to transmit or receive such data.
Powering up boards will automatically establish communication between them and the baseboard. RF STAT/BASE & REMOTE PAIRED/RF SECURE LEDs will remain
RED on the boards which indicates the boards are communicating with each other, but UNPAIRED. This means that card codes/entry codes/remote codes will be
accepted from ANY tracker board that is set to the same channel and ID setting. See below to PAIR boards if desired.
LED displays on boards will indicate the signal loss between the boards. A smaller number is a stronger signal. 75 or lower is recommended.
RF STRENGTH LED should be GREEN on each board. YELLOW is marginal strength, RED is poor strength.
2361 Baseboard: LED Display shows the RF Range setting of the baseboard for 2 sec then shows signal loss that the board is actually receiving from 2372 Base side.
2372 Dual Repeater Board: Has LED displays for EACH side of the repeater which shows signal loss for Base and Remote sides.
2358 Tracker Board:
Do not operate DoorKing wireless products in areas where cellular modems are not advised without proper device certifications. These areas include environments
where cellular radio can interfere such as explosive atmospheres, medical equipment, or any other equipment which may
be susceptible to any form of radio interference. DoorKing wireless products can transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment. Do not operate DoorKing
wireless products in any aircraft, whether the aircraft is on the ground or in flight. In aircraft, DoorKing wireless products MUST BE POWERED OFF. When operating,
DoorKing wireless products can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems.
Note: Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the aircraft is on the ground and the door is open. DoorKing wireless products may be used at this
time.
The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate DoorKing wireless products while in control of a moving vehicle. Doing so will detract from the driver or
operator’s control and operation of that vehicle. In some states and provinces, operating such communications devices while in control of a vehicle is an offence.

There are 16 individual board addresses available for the tracker boards (16 tracker boards). Board addresses 3-10 for Relay 2/Wiegand 2 input
and 11-18 for Relay 1/Wiegand 1 input. An additional 8 tracker boards can be used with zone addressing. There are many combinations of wireless
configurations and DBRs will extend the signal distance between devices to allow up to 24 trackers to be used. Wireless tracker boards can also
connect directly to the 1830 when in range. This diagram assumes that NO tracker boards will be HARDwired to the 1830. See below for wireless
and hardwired tracker boards.
Relay 1/Wiegand 1 input terminal is available on the 1830 baseboard to HARDwire tracker boards if desired. When any trackers are HARDwired to
the baseboard, only the Relay 2/Wiegand 2 input is available for wireless communication. 8 board addresses 3-10 (8 tracker boards) and an
additional 4 tracker boards can be used with zone addressing. There are many combinations of wireless configurations and DBRs will extend the
signal distance between devices to allow up to 12 trackers to be used for the Relay 2/Wiegand 2 input. Wireless tracker boards can also connect
directly to the 1830 Relay 2/Wiegand 2 input when in range.
