automatic reconnection activated in Smart-Vue Client, battery life in the
Level 1 modules is protected, yet the Level 1 modules could serve as
repeaters if there is a problem with the dedicated repeater.

Sample case where a repeater is not required
In the example below, only one of the Level 1 modules (those closest and
directly connected to the receiver) is setup as a repeater. If the Level 1
module acting as a repeater stops communicating, the Level 2 modules
automatically reconfigure their route to the receiver via the other Level 1
module.
On the other hand, the load in this case could be balanced better by
configuring two of the Level 2 modules on one of the Level 1 modules, and
the other Level 2 module on the second Level 1 module.
