CHAPTER 6: MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
6.1 Band LED Conditions
This section will help you interpret the LED indicators on your GuardianB. But first, here are a few configuration and testing points to keep in mind:
SILENCING
PS700 POWER
PS800
• If the control light for a specific frequency band is flashing red or red‐yellow, try increasing the antenna separation between the inside and outside
antennas as much as possible first, then restarting the booster.
• Attenuation can be lowered to a maximum of 25 dB through sentry software and maximum of 25 dB using the booster’s dip switches.
• Attenuation greater than 30 dB (either made by the booster’s dip switches or cumulative adjustments of dip switches and software) will cause
the affected band to shut off and display a solid red led.

GREEN ON Normal operation.
GREEN FLASHING Normal operation. The Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is self‐adjusting.

Refer to your Sentry Monitoring Software for more information about LED codes. Meanwhile, if you have any questions during setup,
please reach out to our U.S.‐based support technicians:

6.3 System Maintenance
No user maintainable components within this system. In the event of any system malfunction, please contact a licensed installer.
Caution: De‐Energize Unit Prior to Servicing
6.4 Testing & Troubleshooting
Once the booster is powered on (and no Warning lights are on), assess the signal in locations of needed signal improvement. Refine the
antenna locations and/or gain levels as needed, then complete the permanent installation when you are confident the system will
perform well.
A few tips and some perspective:
• It’s not realistic to expect full reception everywhere in the building.
• As a general rule, increasing gain by 6dB doubles the coverage distance of the interior antennas. Start at the lowest gain and
increase gradually as needed.
• If one or more red Warning lights comes on, it indicates there is oscillationinthatbandandadjustmentsareneeded
• If you can’t get the coverage reasonably well‐balanced, you may need to install an additional interior antenna and/or a different
type of interior antenna and/or relocate interior antennas.
