Always perform the signal survey with the antenna that will be used on the repeater when it is
installed. Enrollment can only be accomplished with the repeater within reception range of the CP-
3600(+) or at the intended mounting location as long as it can communicate with another enrolled
repeater. Follow the enrollment instructions in the CP-3600(+) manual. After enrollment, it is
recommended to hold the repeater in the intended mounting location and verify a good signal survey
prior to permanently mounting the unit. Upon enrollment and conducting a signal survey the repeater
can be mounted in its intended location. The following must be considered and or adhered to when
mounting the unit.
1 – All wiring should comply with national and/or local electrical codes. Unless otherwise
specified, wire should be 18 gauge copper with 600 Volt insulation. Shielded wire is preferred.
2 – This unit is intended to be mounted in indoor dry areas. Avoid dusty, wet and corrosive
locations.
3 – Mount the AR-5 Repeater at least 8 feet high.

to internal components and wiring.
