Repeater
The Repeater function is an independent function of eLAN-RF-Wi-003 and is used to increase
range between RF controllers (system elements) and RF elements.
Use: an eLAN-RF-Wi-003 device configured for a repeater can only be connected to the
supply voltage, and it will then function just the same as the RFRP-20. This means if it
receives a command from the RF controller or RF detector, it resends it to a designated RF
element and vice-versa.
Oasis Compatible
Enables the repeater function to serve unidirectionally communicating units (RF Key, RFWB,
RFIM, detectors, etc.).
RF Touch compatible
Enables the repeater function to serve bidirectionally communicating units (RF Touch, RF
Pilot, etc.).
List of addresses
Repeated address settings - write into the list of addresses those elements with which you
want the eLAN RF. If you set the eLANs to the router mode, the same addresses must be set
for both eLANs…
After setting the function Repeater, eLAN restarts.
Router
The Router function is used to extend the distance and control of RF elements by connecting
two eLANs into the LAN network.
The first eLAN (so-called Master ) must be set during configuration in the Router
function, it receives all RF commands of controllers via an RF signal. It assess the
limitations and permissions of addresses.
The second eLAN (so-called Slave) assess all commands from the eLAN Master
determined for sending by RF signal. It sends valid messages by RF signal to
controlled elements. If a response comes from an element, it sends it to the eLAN
Master.

Webové rozhraní / rev.3
It is necessary to enter into the settings the LAN parameters of the second eLAN - Slave (IP
address, login data).
The second eLAN Slave can be configured in two ways.
Active function Repeater – this receives commands via the Ethernet network and via
the RF network.
Example: eLAN Slave catches the RF signal of the RF controller, saves it as Repeater
(signal repeater), and sends the RF signal further along.
Active function Router – eLAN is in its basic setting. eLAN only receives commands
from the Ethernet network, and ignores all RF signals.
Oasis Compatible
The sames as with the Repeater function.
RF Touch Compatible
The sames as with the Repeater function.
List of addresses
The sames as with the Repeater function. The same addresses must be set for both eLANs.
After setting the function Router, eLAN restarts.

Button Date & Time
Here the IP address of the NTP server is set by default, which determines for the eLAN
the precise time via the Internet. You can also set the time zone in which the eLAN is
located. By selecting Daylight Saving Time, you can manually set the daylight saving
time.
Time of eLAN-RF-Wi-003 is automatically set from NTP server.
If your eLAN-RF-Wi-003 is not connected to internet network, then time is always set to
12:00 AM, the current day is set manually with button Manual.
