T3 Repeater T3 Repeater System
T3 Repeater is a system option designed
to enhance signal effectiveness in harsh
environments by retransmitting signals to
and from tough and hard to reach areas.
T3 Repeater retransmits signals from
the Base to the PASS (man-down
alarm) and from the PASS to the Base.
The T3 Repeater is omni-directional,
enclosed in an industrial grade case and
is permanently mounted. T3 Repeater
is powered by 85-264 VAC 50/60 Hz
Single Phase 1Amp, with a lead acid
battery backup system.
T3 Repeater Operation
Once the repeater has been prepared
for AC power, the unit may be plugged
in.AC power connector is a screw less
Terminal rated for solid or stranded
wire from 14-22AWG. Wire should be
stripped at a 1/2”. Wires should be
inserted by using a small screwdriver
to depress the lever and then inserting
the wire.
When the T3 Repeater is plugged
in to AC Power, the Red/Green AC
Power Indicator glows (or flashes)
Green - indicating the system has
AC Power and is ready for operation.
With loss of power, the Red/Green AC
Power Indicator glows (or flashes)
Red - indicating the Backup-Battery
System has been automatically
activated, keeping the Repeater ON
and ready for operation.
Power Indicator LED
• Green Steady Glow: AC Power and
battery is fully charged.
• Red Steady Glow: Running on battery
backup
• Red Flashing: Running on Low Battery.
• Red/Green Alternate Flashing: Battery
fault detected. Battery is either ex-
tremely discharged, open or shorted.
If fault occurs at power-up, the indi-
cators should clear in 4 - 6hrs. If fault
continues after 12Hrs Battery is failed
(Open or Shorted).
Transmit / Receive LED
• Red Flashing: when Repeater is
repeating a signal.
