level LEDs (see Table: Description of LED indicators). (ðSection4.5,Page13)
▪ Minimum sufficient signal strength is indicated by 2 level LEDs lighting up.
▪ Good signal strength is indicated by 3 level LEDs lighting up.
▪ Maximum signal strength is indicated by 4 level LEDs lighting up.
It is recommended that you position the magnetic base antenna such that 3 or 4 level
LEDs are lit during installation. (ðSection4.5,Page13)
1. Place the magnetic base antenna in a location that has sufficiently high mobile
network signal strength.
2. Check the level LEDs for mobile network signal strength.
3. If necessary, change the position of the magnetic base antenna and check again.
