with the instructions, it may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. Verification of harmful interference by this equipment to radio
or television reception can be determined by turning it off and then on. The user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a different circuit to that of the receiver's outlet.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
This device may not cause harmful interference.
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the equipment.
FCC Regulations
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) requires that all radio communication products should meet the
requirements set forth in the above standards before they can be marketed in the U.S, and the manufacturer shall post
a RF label on the product to inform users of operational instructions, so as to enhance their occupational health against
exposure to RF energy.
Operational Instructions and Training Guidelines
To ensure optimal performance and compliance with the occupational/controlled environment RF energy exposure

limits in the above standards and guidelines, users should always adhere to the followings:
Gain of antenna must not exceed 5 dBi (indoor) or 10 dBi (outdoor).
Install the antenna at least 105 cm (indoor) or 180 cm (outdoor) away from your body, in accordance with the
requirements of the antenna manufacturer/supplier.

To ensure optimum performance and reliability of the repeater, read the following instructions carefully.
3.1 Installation Requirements
3.1.1 Environmental Conditions
The repeater must be installed in a dry and well-ventilated place. The operating temperature ranges from –30°C to
+60°C, and the relative humidity is 95%.
3.1.2 Installation Site
The repeater can be installed in a rack, bracket, and cabinet, or on a desk.
For more information, refer to the Safety Information Booklet.
3.2 Pre-installation Tasks
3.2.1 Preparing the Tools
Phillips screwdriver
T-10 torx screwdriver
Spanner
Anti-static gloves
Multimeter
3.2.2 Checking the Power Supply
Before you install the repeater, make sure that the power supply meets the following requirements:
DC power voltage: 13.6±15% V
AC power voltage: 100–240 V
3.3 Installation Procedure
To install the repeater, do as follows:
1. Wear the anti-static gloves.
2. Place the repeater to a proper location.

8
If the repeater is installed in outdoor environments with frequent
thunderstorms, such as the top of
mountains or buildings, you must install an external lightning protection module (optional) on the network
interface.
3. Connect the antenna, feed line, ground cable, and power cord to the repeater.
You must purchase the antenna and feed lines separately.
You must prepare a ground cable.
The repeater can be connected to the AC power supply and the battery simultaneously
. In such case,
the AC power supply powers the repeater and also charges the battery; when the AC power s
upply
malfunctions, the battery works as a UPS battery to power the repeater.
4. Ground the repeater through the ground screw located on the rear panel.
3.4 Post-installation Check
To check whether the repeater works properly, do as follows:
1. Turn the repeater on.
2. Observe the LED indicators and the display in the front panel.
If the repeater works properly, the power supply indicator on the float charging board glows yellow or blue,
and the display shows the current channel.
If not, the power supply indicator glows red, and the display shows the alarm code.
For details, refer to 4.4 Checking the Status.

9
4. Basic Operations
4.1 Turning On or Off the Repeater
If the repeater is connected to a DC power supply, press the power switch on the DC power supply to turn on or
off the repeater.
After turn-on, if the power supply indicator turns red, the repeater goes into locked status. You must switch off
the DC power supply for four seconds, and then switch on the power supply again.
If the repeater is connected to an AC power supply, press the AC Power Switch in the rear panel to turn on or off
the repeater.
After turn-on, the power supply indicator turns yellow.
4.2 Changing the Channel
Press the Volume/Channel + or Volume/Channel – key to change the channel.
The current channel number appears on the display of the repeater.
4.3 Adjusting the Volume
1. Long press the Volume/Channel + key for five seconds to switch the repeater from channel mode to volume
mode.
2. Press the Volume/Channel + or Volume/Channel –key to increase or decrease the volume.
