On/Off contact field
The repeater is switched on using a magnetic switch.
Move the supplied magnet over the On/Off contact field of the repeater. The status
LED first lights up red; after the magnet is removed it flashes green three times.
Regular blue flashing then indicates that the repeater is switched on and ready to
receive.
To switch off the repeater, keep the magnet at the On/Off contact field for a few
seconds. The LED first lights up yellow. As soon as it lights up red, you can remove the
magnet. The repeater then switches off and the LED goes out.
Each repeater has an internal lithium battery. It can power the device for up to five
years. The actual battery lifetime depends on the wireless settings of the “paired”
loggers.
When you query a repeater’s configuration, its battery status is also shown.
Flat batteries cannot be recharged. They must be replaced.
SebaKMT or an authorised service partner must change the batteries.
Otherwise, water- and dirt-resistance of the repeater cannot be guaranteed.
