Single Repeater Configuration

Use a single repeater as part of a single station/single receiver setup when the distance is

so great that a station alone can not successfully communicate with a receiver. The dis-

tance is greater than one radio-link but less than three.

The diagram below shows the typical single repeater configuration , with each arrow rep-

resenting a radio-link.:

This configuration permits greater distances between a station and a receiver.

Note: If the distance between a station and a receiver is more than two radio-links, see “Multiple Repeater

(Daisy-Chain) Configuration” below. If more than one station exists, see “Multiple Stations/One Repeater

Configuration” on page 8.

Multiple Repeater (Daisy-Chain) Configuration

If the distance between a station and receiver is greater than the single repeater configura-

tion distance can provide range for, or if the station, repeater and receiver are not in line

of sight of each other, more than one repeater should be used to transmit weather data. A

multiple repeater daisy-chain configuration has the capability to transmit up to nine

radio-links between the station and a receiver, but should be limited to four repeaters

(five radio-links).

Note: Although the maximum of eight repeaters is based on the number of unique repeater IDs (A-H) available

in a network, the limit of four repeaters in a daisy chain is based on communication/timing issues.
