Installation and Setup Overview
The following is an overview of the installation process. To ensure the
product’s best operation, we highly recommend following the “Detailed
Installation Procedure” on page 12.
1. Find the strongest signal near a window a window in your home
with your own cellular handset’s signal bars.
2. Attach the included Patch Antenna approximately 12 inches from
the top of the window with the strongest signal.
3. Adjust the Patch Antenna until you see the strongest SIGNAL
reading on the Base Amplier.
4. Place the Base Amplier in the area of your home with the weakest
cellular signal. The Base Amplier can either be set on a tabletop
or wall mounted.
5. Adjust the Base Amplier’s Service Antenna to get the largest
RANGE meter reading.
NOTE: Be sure to install the Patch Antenna at least 25 feet away from
Base Amplier and its Service Antenna to avoid oscillation. Having walls
between the Antennas also help. If the two antennas are too close, the
red ALARM light will ash on the Base Amplier indicating oscillation and
shutdown.
