Activation Process
Prior to starting the activation process, please ensure the following is displayed:
Battery is above 7.2V
Cable is “Connected” and shown in green
Enclosure is “Secure” and shown in green
Activation is a four step process.
1. Test Mobile Signal
Test the mobile signal strength and if necessary adjust the antenna location and/or
orientation. The mobile signal test will run for around 2 minutes, so you have time to make
antenna adjustments.
It is important to wait approximately 15 seconds after making an antenna or meterwatch
orientation adjustment, as the indicated signal strength does not change instantaneously.
The signal is shown in dBm with a message describing signal quality - poor, good or
excellent. Ideally you should be aiming to get at least a good signal ie -93 dBm or better.
The
closer the dBm value is to 0, the better the signal.
