4.3.3. Programming Point-To-Point Extended Call Book to Use Three or
Four Repeaters
In a Point-to-Point configuration, FreeWave radios can use a maximum of four Repeaters.
1. To use three or four Repeaters, program the Call Book with the Slave serial number,
followed by the first two Repeaters.
2. On the next line enter 999-9999 as the radio to call.
3. When prompted for the Repeaters enter the third and fourth Repeaters in the link.
Figure 24 shows a Point-to-Point link where a Slave is called through four Repeaters. In this
example:
l the Master is calling the Slave, 571-3872, through Repeater 1, 901-1234,
l then Repeater 2,910-0234,
l then Repeater 3, 571-3456, and finally
l Repeater 4, 571-4567.
l Entering the serial number 999-9999 in line 1 instructs the Master to continue calling
through the Repeaters programmed on that line.
Figure 24: Point-to-Point link where a Slave is called through four Repeaters
l To call a Slave radio through one or more Repeaters, that Slave must be called individually.
l With Call All selected, the Master will not connect with any Slave radios through
Repeaters.
l The Master calls every Slave in the list and connects with the first Slave that responds.
l When calling through a Repeater, the Master must first call that Repeater and establish a
communications link with it prior to making contact with the Slave.
