7.3 A3 Repeater Operation
A Boom Box 3 or Boom Box in Decoder operating mode can be used as an A3 Repeater. The
Boom Box Decoder would need to be in Ready Message type Vib Pro.
The Boom Box 3 and Boom Box Decoder unit becomes an A3 Repeater whenever an A3 Repeater
start code message is received with the correct conditions. The Decoder Crew ID must match the
A3 Repeater start code message Crew ID and the Decoder Unit ID must match the A3 Repeater
start code message Repeater ID.
If the same Unit ID is shared among more than one box, the A3 Repeater mode will not operate
properly.
