How to Register a Repeater

	If you want to expand the coverage area of the system, this is done by adding
	repeaters to the system. As indicated by the name, it adds a larger area to the
	already existing coverage area.

Note	The repeater does not add capacity, ie. more channels, but only a larger
	coverage area. The repeater can only be registered into the system when
	placed within the coverage area of the base station ( Please read the
	repeater deployment note on the CD-ROM for further information on
	different types of repeaters).
	In general terms, KIRK System 500 2G4 contains 6 available speech channels
	in the coverage area of the base station.
	There are 2 simultaneous speech channels in the coverage area of each
	Repeater. These 2 channels are ”borrowed” from the base station, and are not
	an addition to the system’s 6 channels.
	Each handset uses one channel when making a call – internal or external. Thus,
	in total 6 handsets can be in use at the same time.
	When 6 handsets are ” in the air ” the system sends out a busy signal. On KIRK
	handsets this is indicated by a flashing antenna icon in the lower left corner of
	the display.

How to Register a Repeater to the System

Using the Repeater Programming Tool, the following must be registered: The system ARI code (Indicated on the label on the back of the base station) Number of the base station (Always 01when not dealing with Repeater Jumps) Number of the repeater. (2-7)

When the registration has been finalised, the Repeater is ready to be placed in the area in which coverage is wanted.
