LED INDICATORS
Please note the following information:
•
Only the presence of red or RED-yellow LEDs indicate the presence of an unresolved issue.
•
Your booster switches should always be at maximum level unless the control light for a
specific frequency band is flashing red or red-yellow. In either case, only reduce gain if other
recommended actions do not resolve the issue.
LED Information
Color
LED
Resolution
Green
Solid
Indicates that the frequency band is in use.
This is part of normal operation.
Green
Flashing
Indicates that the booster is functioning properly by using Automatic Gain Control
(AGC) technology to stabilize the signal entering your booster from the outside
antenna.
This is part of normal operation.
Yellow
/ Red
Alternately
Flashing
Indicates that the booster is receiving too much signal which could cause the
affected band to automatically turn off. When this happens:
•
For kits using an OMNI outside antenna, relocate the outside antenna to a
location where the signal is weaker.
•
For kits using a YAGI outside antenna, turn the antenna in short increments
away from the signal source.
•
Add an inline attenuator to the cable coming into the outside port of the
booster.
•
Though not desirable as amplification will not be optimum, lower the dB gain
setting in small increments until the light turns green.
Red
Flashing
The frequency band is off due to overpower. This can happen when the gain has
been turned too low.
To resolve, see the above suggestions.

no power
Verify that the booster switch is turned on.
Be sure the power source is not controlled by a switch that can remove power from the
outlet by connecting to an alternate power source.
If the POWER LED on the signal booster remains OFF, contact tech support at:

Verify that cable connections are tightly fitted to the booster and antennas.
Check the installation of your outdoor antenna. Ensure that the mounting area is clear of
obstructions and other radiating elements.
For kits that use a directional Yagi antenna, verify that the antenna is properly aimed in the
direction of your carrier’s closest cell tower.
Check the outdoor signal strength at the site the outdoor antenna. If signal level is low, your
resulting coverage will be limited.
Remember that Bars are not always a reliable measure of signal. The best way to confirm
signal coverage is the ability to place and hold a call.
