XDECT R002 Repeater
What's in the box?
The repeater extends the range of your base in all directions, includ-
ing up and down. Cordless handsets automatically connect to the
repeater or the base, depending on which signal is stronger. You can
roam anywhere within range of the base or the repeater(s) and make
and receive calls as usual from your handsets.
The repeater is not a telephone; it must be registered to a phone
base before using.
Any repeaters that come packaged with a base are already
registered to that base for you.
For instructions on registering repeaters to the base, see page 9.

Handsets operate exactly the same no matter which unit they
connect to.
Usually, you can't tell when a handset switches between the
base and the repeater in the middle of a call.
See your base’s owners manual to for the maximum number of
repeaters it can connect.
Repeaters can be up to 3 chain-links (maximum) from the base.
Handsets in this
area can connect
to either unit.

Placing the Repeater
Here are a few tips for placing your repeater so that you get
the clearest signal and the maximum range:
Place the repeater just inside the base's coverage area,
that is, as far from the base as possible where you still
have good reception.
Put the repeater at least 10 m away from the base or any
other repeater.
♦
♦
If you place the repeater on a flat surface, make sure the
power cord doesn't pull on the unit and that people walking
by won't knock it off the surface.
♦
If possible, mount the repeater on the wall.♦

Connect the Repeater Power Cord
Use the included adapter to connect the repeater to a
regular indoor (240 V AC) power outlet.

Place the repeater anywhere inside the range where the
handset had a clear connection with no noise and the icon
showed a strong signal.
4.
Finding the Base’s Coverage Area
Stand near the base and make a call on a cordless
handset that is registered to that base.
1.
Continue the call and carry the handset away from the
base. Make sure you go at least 10 meters.
2.
Make a note where you start to hear noise on your call
(the signal is getting weaker). You can use the signal
strength icon on the handset display to find the best
location: make a note where the icon indicates the signal
is getting weaker.
3.
Place the repeater inside the
strong signal range (before the
noise increases)

interference.
- making sure there are no thick walls or
large metal objects between the repeater
and the base; these can block the signal.
- making sure there is no other base or
repeater within 10 m of this location.
Place the repeater in its final position and connect the AC
adapter. The
LINK light will flash for a few seconds, then
stay on.

Place the Repeater on the Wall
You can mount the repeater directly to a wall using the
horizontally aligned mounting slots at the back of the
repeater unit. Before doing this consider the following:
Avoid electrical cables, pipes, or other items behind the
mounting location that could cause a hazard when
inserting screws into the wall.
♦
Mount the repeater within distance of a working 240V
AC power outlet.
♦
The Repeater unit is NOT waterproof. If mounted onto an
outside wall place under an eave or roof overhang where it
is protected from direct weather conditions, DO NOT place
in direct sunlight.
Insert two #10 screws into the wall, 57 mm apart. Leave
the heads of the screws about 6 mm away from the wall.
(For best results, use a level to ensure the screws are
even.)
1.
Remember to use appropriate anchors for the wall
material.
•
Keeping the AC adapter cord out of the way, place the
repeater over the screw heads and slide it down into
place.
2.
To remove the unit from the wall, just slide it up and lift it off
the screw heads.

If you are having trouble with a repeater or if you want to
replace one, you need to register the repeater to the base.
Connect the repeater close to the base for easy access to
the necessary buttons and indicators. Locate the repeater
in the desired position after registration is complete.
•
On the base, open the menu and select Register Accy.1.
On the back of the repeater you want to register, press
and hold the registration button until the LINK light on the
front starts to blink (about 2 seconds).
2.
Release the button and wait for the
LINK light to turn on and
steady (this can take about 90 seconds). The repeater has
been registered to the base.
3.
If... Try...
the
LINK light
won't turn on
- checking the repeater's AC adapter
connecting the adapter to a dierent outlet.
the
LINK light
continues
ashing
- disconnecting the unit's AC adapter. Wait
about ten seconds, then try again.
- making sure there are not already 6 repeaters
registered to this base.
- making sure no other base or repeater is in
registration mode.
Only register one repeater at a time. If more than one
repeater is in registration mode at the same time then they
can interfere with each other.
♦
Only register a repeater to one base at a time. If more than
one base is in registration mode at the same time then you
can't control which base the repeater registers to.
♦
If you want to register two or more repeaters to this base,
just repeat these steps with the second repeater.
