Site Survey Site Survey
A cellular site survey is not necessary if your anticipated installation location is known to have
strong cellular signal strength. If you are unsure of available cellular signal strength or are
choosing between several installation locations, follow the below instructions to perform a site
survey to determine your best possible installation location. After the optimal location has been
determined, setup the 6310-DX with either the power supply unit or the PoE injector cable.
1. Follow the steps in the “Initial Setup” section above. During a site survey it is useful to use
the included battery pack instead of the power supply unit to power the Accelerated
6310-DX. The battery pack will power your device for approximately two hours while you
perform your site survey. The battery pack is not rechargeable and should be properly
disposed of after use.
2. Move the Accelerated 6310-DX to different locations within your site to determine the best
compromise between signal strength and installation constraints. Since cellular signal
strength may fluctuate, it is important to wait at each location for 1 minute while observing
the signal strength indicator on the front of the device. Minimum cellular signal strength for
proper operation is 2 bars.
3. After the optimal location has been determined, remove the battery pack and connect either
the main power supply unit or PoE injector cable (see section labeled Using Remote Power
for more information).

If you are unable to verify a location with a strong cellular signal:
• Verify your SIM has been activated with your cellular operator.
• If cellular signal isn’t indicated on the Accelerated 6310-DX indoors, then take the device
outdoors to verify that your cellular network operator has coverage in your location.
• If the outdoor cellular signal strength is less than 2 bars, it may be necessary to connect
using a different cellular network operator. This requires an activated SIM from the alternate
cellular network operator.
• Try the device/antennas in different orientations and away from other nearby electronic
equipment at each test location. Note: LTE requires the use of both antennas & antennas
will usually give better performance when vertical.
• Refer to the Device Status section to use Accelerated 6310-DX indicator lights to aid in
diagnosis.
