Repeater Mode (Used in Multiple ATX Installations)
In Repeater mode, the ATX receives time signals from another ATX
transceiver, and rebroadcasts the signal to other ATX Repeaters or
AirTime wall clocks.
Setup (Repeater Mode)
1. Remove the back cover and slide the Mode Selection switch to the
Repeater position.
2. Insert two (2) CR123A lithium batteries and replace the back cover
or connect the optional 6VDC adapter if it will be used.
3. Press the Reset button. The display will appear with dashes and the
RECV indicator will flash.
4. Press the TRNS button on the ATX that is set to “Master” mode.

5. Install the Repeater ATX at the desired location (within
approximately 150 feet of the ATX Transceiver).
6. When the signal is received from the “Master”, the term “LINK”
will display and the time and date will update to the Masters time.
7. The TRNS indicator will flash while the ATX Repeater transmits to
AirTime wall clocks or other ATX Repeaters. The ATX will transmit
for one hour, allowing you to setup and install your AirTime wall
clocks and other ATX Repeaters.
If the Repeater ATX fails to receive the signal from the Master ATX
Transceiver (indicated by a LED flashing red or the display toggling
between time and date and
“E”
), then press the Reset button or
move the ATX to a location that is closer to the Master ATX.
MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE REPEATER ATX DISPLAYS “LINK”. Unless
your Repeater ATX continuously receives signals from the Master
ATX, then your clock system will not operate properly.
The setup of the ATX in Repeater Mode is now complete. You can
now synchronize and install your AirTime Wall Clocks using the
instructions furnished with them.
