CELL PHONE SIGNAL BOOSTER
7
Light Patterns
SOLID GREEN
— This indicates that your booster is functioning properly and there
are no issues with installation.
BLINKING RED, THEN SOLID GREEN
—This indicates that one or more of the
booster bands has reduced power due to a feedback loop condition called
oscillation. This is a built in safety feature to prevent harmful interference with a
nearby cell tower. If you are already experiencing the desired signal boost, then no
further adjustments are necessary. If you are not experiencing the desired boost in
coverage then refer to the Troubleshooting section below.
SOLID RED
— This is due to a feedback loop condition called oscillation. This is a
built in safety feature that causes a band to shut off to prevent harmful interference
with a nearby cell tower. Refer to Troubleshooting section below.
Troubleshooting
Fixing Blinking or Solid Red Issues
This section is only applicable if the booster is red or blinking red and you are not
experiencing the desired signal boost.
1.
Unplug the Booster’s power supply.
2.
Relocate the inside and outside antenna further from each other. The objective is
to increase the separation distance between them, so that they will not create this
feedback condition discussed before.
3.
Plug power supply back in.
4.
Monitor the indicator light on your booster. If, after a few seconds of ‘power
on’, a solid or blinking red light appears, repeat steps 1 through 3. Increase the
separation distance until the condition is corrected and/or desired coverage area is
achieved. Note: Parallel separation of the two antennas typically requires a shorter
separation distance than perpendicular separation. A combination of vertical and
horizontal separation distance also works to prevent oscillation.
