THE IDEAL OUTDOOR ANTENNA DIRECTION & LOCATION
Step 1:
Connect the outdoor antenna to the booster’s outdoor antenna port.
Step 2:
Temporarily Fix the outdoor antenna on the roof of the building and point
it to the nearest cell tower.
Step 3:
Slowly rotate the direction of the antenna until you find maximum power
output of the booster. Once this is achieved, the location and aim of the outdoor
antenna is optimal.
Step 4:
Look at the gain and output power value displayed in the Siyata Connect
APP or directly on the booster’s LCD display.
Using the Siyata Connect App
The Siyata Connect App will help you locate the best location to install the outdoor
antenna. Turn on your application once on your roof.
Go to your App and find the Device Tab > Your Device> Device Detail> RF Control
Parameters. This should take you to a screen that shows the Output Power and Gain
for the respective cellular bands.
Using the LCD Display
This is a backup method that can be used when the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth is
unavailable. Before you use this method to install your booster, please take a
moment to familiarize yourself with the LCD Display, LED Status Indicators and
Control Buttons on the unit
To do this efficiently, you will need someone to assist you.
Follow the same steps as above but check the Output Power and Gain directly on
the booster’s LCD Display instead of in the APP.
Note:
The outdoor antenna will be in the optimum location when the booster’s
downlink output power reaches its highest level in each band.
Note:
If the LCD display shows maximum gain and power, and there are not any
alarms (no ISO, ALC, OFF legend flashing and no quick flashing green or red in
LEDs), it means the present location is the best for ensuring that the booster has
maximized performance.
Note:
These values may vary dynamically at times between 1-3 dB which is normal
due to outdoor signal conditions.
Note:
Please see the troubleshooting section of this manual for more information
on making manual adjustments to your booster’s performance.
