HSPA(3G)/Dual Alarm Communicator Installation Manual
4. Move the extension antenna to various locations while observing the two green LEDs on the
panel.
a. Continue to reposition the extension antenna until you receive an acceptable (minimum one
green LED ON solid) signal strength.
NOTE:
Minimum strength is:
green LED 1 flashing and
yellow LED off. If green LED 1 is
flashing, relocation should be considered.
b. Mount the supplied antenna extension bracket at the location that provides the best signal
strength.
5. Alternately, reposition the panel to improve signal strength. Dismount the panel and move it to
another location to achieve the required signal strength. If the panel is relocated to improve sig-
nal strength, mount it in the new location.
6. When final panel/antenna location is determined, continue at the
section.
NOTE:
If the SIM card is not activated, placement test will indicate the signal strength of the
nearest cellular tower.
NOTE:
In between displaying signal strength, the signal strength LEDs will flash alternately if an
inactive SIM card is used. The flashing indicates that the module is attempting to attach to
the cellular network and will only last briefly.
