Users must follow the principles stated below:
The booster should follow system requirements of mobile signal enhancement, assure good grounding and lightning
protection.
Booster's power supply voltage should meet the standards of security requirements;
The device has a plug connection, the socket must be close to the device and accessible.
Operating Temperature range is -10 - +55 degrees Celsius.
Any operation should be carried out only after cutting off power in advance. Only the professional user is authorized
for the operation.
Do not dismantle the machine, maintain or displace accessories by yourself. In this way, the equipment can be
damaged and you can even get an electric shock.
Do not open the booster, touch the module of booster, or open the cover of module to touch the electronic
component. The components will be damaged due to electrostatic.
Keep away from heating equipment, because the booster will dissipate heat during working. And do not cover
booster with anything that influences heat-dissipation.
During the transportation and storage process, the device should avoid the humid environment, prevent violent
impact and avoid strong vibration.
The Body Separation distance is 50cm by using the procedure of MPE calculation.

USAGE AND INSTALLATION RESTRICTIONS

Signal booster devices for NR700, LTE800, EGSM/PGSM/WCDMA/UMT900, GSM/LTE1800, WCDMA/UMTS2100, and
LTE2600 mobile network operators, holders of the corresponding licenses and in each case within the frequencies
assigned to them, since they are broadband amplifiers acts.
The new HiBoost generations are self-regulating and switch themselves off in critical situations because they are
equipped with C.A.S. (automatic shutdown control). If installed incorrectly, these systems can cause serious disruptions to
mobile network operators, with legal and economic consequences for the owner of the kit and the installer who installed
the antennas.
Huaptec Telecom GmbH assumes no liability for incorrect installation by inexperienced and unqualified personnel or in
any case by personnel without the necessary equipment and license.
Furthermore, Huaptec Telecom GmbH also assumes no liability for improper use of the field expansion kits due to
incorrect positioning and alignment of the external and internal antennas, which can cause problems for other users or
disruptions to mobile network operators and providers.
Note: Mobile network boosters are not telecommunications terminal equipment, but rather radio equipment whose
operation constitutes spectrum use and therefore require frequency allocation. However, since the operating frequencies
in question have been allocated to mobile network operators and are no longer available, the operation of a repeater is
subject to the approval of mobile network operators.

HiBoost Booster Overview
HiBoost consumer boosters are designed to amplify a weak mobile signal indoors.
The devices are bi-directional. The outdoor antenna receives the signal from the cell tower and transmits it to the signal
booster, the booster amplifies the signal and the indoor antenna sends it to your mobile device. Visa versa, the signal
produced by your phone is also received by the indoor antenna, amplified by the booster and then sent back to the cell
tower through the outdoor antenna.

There are 5 operation modes relative to the control keys：
Press the "SET" key for more than 3 seconds
Briefly press the "SET" key
Briefly press the "DEC-" key
Briefly press the "INC+" key
Simultaneously press the "DEC-" and "INC+" keys for more than 3 seconds Since the booster has a self-adaptive
smart automatic level control (ALC), and isolation gain processing (ISO), most of the time manual adjustments are not
required to achieve good coverage. However, in some cases when the ALC or ISO are working at a very high rate to
adjust the gain and the Alarm or ISO LED is flashing more than once a second, a manual adjustment might be
required. When LCD is in the fixed display mode, press the "SET" key for more than 3 seconds. It will go into the "Gain
Setting Mode" and make one of the gain values start to blink.
Press the "SET" key briefly, and the LCD will switch to the next gain value and it will start blinking. (Uplink or downlink

When the booster doesn't have enough isolation between the outdoor and indoor antennas, the "ISO" is flashing. Press

"ALC"- strong receiving power alarm indication.
When the booster's receiving too strong signal from outside, output power gets overrated and "ALC" starts flashing.
Press the "SET" key and the screen will turn on and show the affected band or bands.
"OFF"- booster shut-down alarm indication.
When LCD screen is in "OFF" state and the booster shuts down, LCD screen will be flashing. When LCD screen is "ON"
and the booster shuts down, "OFF" is flashing.
Press the "SET" key and the screen will show the affected band or bands.

Note: When adjusting the gain manually, please ensure that the uplink gain is equal to or not less than 5dB compared
with the configured downlink gain values. This avoids interference with the local cell tower network.When the LCD is in
the fixed display mode, press the "DEC-" and "INC+" key simultaneously for more than 3 seconds, the booster will reset
the gain to the default manufacturer settings.
When the LCD is in the alarm display mode, press the "SET" key and the LCD screen will turn on to help with
troubleshooting and display the alarm indication showing the affected band or bands, press the "INC+" (or "DEC-") key
to switch to different pages.
If none of the keys are pressed within 30 seconds, the display will return to the fixed display mode. If none of the control
keys are pressed within 5 minutes, the LCD screen will turn off. Pressing any key will return the display to the fixed mode.
Easy Installation in 4 simple steps
1. Find the strongest received signal for the location of the outdoor antenna
2. Install the outdoor antenna on the roof to obtain the strongest downlink signal from the local cellular towers It
should also be as far away as possible from where you plan to place the indoor antenna (vertical separation is more
important than horizontal separation).
3. Install the indoor antennas where you want to improve the signal level
4. Mount the booster, connect the cables from the outdoor antenna and indoor antenna at the designated ports, and
connect the booster to the AC supply (make sure all the cables are connected before applying power)
Make sure you have sufficient cable length between the outdoor,indoor antennas and the booster in case you have
not a standard kit.
Make sure the place where you install the booster is close to one of the existing electrical outlet. It should also be
well ventilated, away from excessive heat, moisture, and direct sunlight.

1.1 How to find the location with the strongest received signal
The booster's main function is to improve a weak RF signal inside a house, office or any other indoor area. The received
outdoor downlink signal strength directly affects the efficiency of the indoor coverage. That is why it is crucially important
to install the antenna at a good location and point it properly towards a tower where signal reception is the strongest.
There is two methods that can be used to find the strongest downlink signal from the local towers.
Step 1. Installation of Outdoor Antenna
You can use a mobile to test signal strength near the window or on the top of the building. The number of bars on
network indicator will define the approximate strength of the received signal. Normally, the roof of the building is the
best place to receive the strongest signal. As shown in the graph below, you need to test the signal in points from A to E,
and select a place with the best signal strength for outdoor installation. It is recommended to use a mobile app that can
display signal level, since it is more accurate than checking signal bars.
Mobile Phone Method
(for Hi10 Model/Hi13 Model/Hi17 Model/Hi23 Model)
Connect your booster with your smartphone through the Signal Supervisor application. Temporarily fix the outdoor
antenna on the roof and check the output power and gain values on your mobile phone. Turn the antenna slowly until
the application shows maximum power. Once this is achieved, the current location is the best to maximize the
performance of your amplifier.
