Introduction
Signal Repeater
The Signal Repeater will extend the range of the Choice Alert system up to 150 feet from its location – Effectively repeating the signal from any Sensor back to the Control Center should a Sensor be located out of range. The Signal Repeater does not send or receive signals to the Silent Alert or Alarm Siren, or from other Signal Repeaters.
Check List
Identify all the parts before proceeding.

Adding a Signal Repeater
Test
Step 1 - Find an electric outlet near the Sensor having trouble communicating with the Control Center. Make certain the location is between the Sensor and Control Center. Plug the Signal Repeater into the outlet and
press the ‘Test’
button on the side of Signal Repeater. It will send a test signal
out to the Control Center and the LED indicator on the Signal Repeater will flash rapidly for about one second, then go out.
Step 2 - When the Control Center receives the Signal Repeater’s test signal, it will flash the green power indicator. This means a confirmation signal was sent back to the Signal Repeater. Release all buttons.

Step 3 - When the Signal Repeater receives the
confirmation signal, the LED indicator will flash, five times. If the Signal Repeater does not receive the confirmation signal from the Control Center, the LED indicator on the Signal Repeater will not flash. You will need to move the Signal Repeater closer to the Control Center and retest.
Step 4 - To Ensure the Signal Repeater can receive the signal from the Sensor, activate the Sensor. The Signal Repeater’s LED indicator should flash rapidly, and the Control Center should respond to the Sensor’s signal.
This process will help you locate the Signal Repeater to the best (farthest) position from the Control Center
in order to extend the range of the Sensor.
