The Network Repeater is set up to use DHCP by default.  Once the Network Repeater is plugged into the switch/router, it will try to get an IP       address automatically.  2.  If DHCP is not being used, and a static IP or crossover connection is preferred, then a jumper must be installed on the main board in the       following orientation:Top ViewRJ45 Jack↓Jumper must be on both middle pins for static IP3. Static IP -  If using a static IP, the IP address will be defaulted to 192.168.0.123.  Go to a web browser and type in 192.168.0.123 to load      the web interface.  Once this is done, follow the instructions on page 8 to find the Network Settings page.  Turn off DHCP and enter the new IP        address and click submit.  Then power down the Network Repeater, remove the jumper, and reboot the Network Repeater.  To access the web      interface, type in the new IP address in the web browser.    DHCP -  If DHCP is being utilized, load the Sapling Monitor software on a PC that is connected to the network.  Launch the Monitor.exe file      and follow step 4.4.  Locate the Network Repeater by searching under the “Type” heading.  Once it’s located, double click on it to open its web interface.↓

How far can the Network Repeater transmit the wireless signal?The Transceiver can transmit up to 2000 meters in open space.Will the Repeater have interference from cordless or cellular phones?No, because with Sapling’s innovative frequency-hopping technology, interference will not occur.  The repeater switches frequencies automatically when the receiver and transmitter is open, thus interference is avoided.Can analog wireless clocks be combined with digital wireless clocks?Absolutely.  The analog and digital wireless clocks are designed to work together, whether the clocks are running on battery (analog wireless clock only), 24 volts or 110 volts.My power source is 220 volts.  Can the Network Repeater be powered on that voltage?Yes, the Repeater can work on 110 volts/50-60 Hz or 220 volts/50-60 Hz.How often does the Network Repeater send the wireless signal?The Network Repeater sends out the signal once a minute.Can the Network Repeater receive time from other devices besides the Sapling SMA Series Master Clock?No, the Network Repeater only receives time from the SMA Series Master Clock.TroubleshootingThe clocks aren’t receiving the signal.  What should I do?Make sure that the Repeater is in a place where the signal can be transmitted in open space.What should I do if the Repeater is not powering up?Measure the voltage between pins L1 & L2.  The voltmeter should read 85 - 135 VAC between the hot and the neutral.  What do I do if I cannot get an IP address from the DHCP server and want to use a static IP instead?See page 5 for instructions on setting the Network Repeater to use a static IP address.Support
