Safe Operation Requirement

The Phonecell®SX5 must be either wall mounted or desk mounted and should not be operated
when any person is within 203 mm (8 inches) of the antenna.

Emergency Batteries

1. Remove the battery access door screw located on the bottom of the unit - see Figure 3.

2. Press the battery access door tabs and remove the battery access door.

3. Install 4 “AA” alkaline batteries (not supplied) - see Figure 3.

4. Reinstall the battery access door using the screw.

5. To test the batteries, turn the AC/Battery switch to battery operation. After the test, turn the
switch back to AC unless you want to continue to operate from battery power. - see Figure 4.

Phonecell®SX5T CDMA 2 User Manual

SX5 Location and Installation

The SX5 comes with a standard spike antenna (TNC) - see Figure 5. For optimal signal
strength, choose a location that is above ground and as close to windows (or exterior walls) as
possible - see Figure 6. Cellular signal strength is displayed by the Received Signal Strength
Indicator (RSSI) LED on the unit - See the How to Use the LED Status Indicators section of this
manual.

1. Connect the antenna to the terminal - see Figure 5.

2. Finger-tighten the antenna. Do not over-tighten the antenna.

Wall Mounting

1. Mark two hole locations 98,5 mm (3-7/8 inches) vertically apart and drill two holes into the
wall.

2. Install the screws (not supplied) into the wall, leaving a gap (approximately 3 mm (1/8 inch))
between screw head and wall.

3. Align the mounting holes with the screws and mount the SX5 onto the screws - see Figures
7 and 8.

Phonecell®SX5T CDMA 3 User Manual

Connect the SX5 to AC Power

1. A protective earth (safety
ground) terminal (screw)
marked with a protective
earth symbol is provided
on the back of the SX5 ­see Figure 9a. Connect
this terminal to a good
earth ground (i.e., a cold
water pipe) by means of
an 18 gauge or heavier
insulated wire. The wire
insulation should be
green with a yellow stripe
to indicate that this is a
protective earth (safety
ground) connection.

2. Connect the barrel connector of the power supply to the AC power input receptacle of the
SX5 - see Figure 9b.

3. Plug the AC power cord into the power supply.

4. Plug the AC power cord into the AC Power outlet.

HINT: If there are no batteries in the SX5, it will only power on if the AC/Battery switch is in
the AC position - see Figure 4.

5. Check the cellular signal strength and move the unit until you achieve the best signal
possible - see the LED Status Indicators section of this manual.

Attach a Telephone to the SX5

1. Plug one end of a standard phone
cord into a phone- see Figure 10.

2. Connect the other end of the phone
cord to the telephone port on the side
of the SX5 (marked with a phone icon)

- see Figure 10.
