Bands contained in the Gauges on Signal Supervisor

Please focus on the gauge that contains the band you are using

Download NetWork Cell Info Lite in the Google store and open it.
It can be seen from the example picture that the frequency band is band 13.
(According to the form before, you need to pay attention to Gauge LTE700)
Then click MAP. You can see your phone connecting to a tower, and you can try
aiming your outdoor antenna at it. But sometimes this is not accurate. You could also
move to Step 3.2 to find the tower
Note: Please take screenshots at this stage.

Step 3
Find the cell tower & Determine the outdoor antenna’s position
3.1 Find the band you are using
For Android

04
(1) Dial *3001#12345#*
(2) Follow the instructions, take the screenshots as required.
(1) Enter cellmapper.net
(2) Choose your own carrier and band here.
3.2 Find the cell tower
For ios
AT&T AT&T

05
(3) Then enter the coordinate of where you are trying to install the signal booster, and press
Enter key.
(In fact when you open Cellmapper, the map on the right will automatically locate your area
if you've given the site permission to access your location. If you found tower sites not even
displayed on the map, it might because the app intercepts the locations for security
reasons.)
(4) After the map jumps to the location, you can scroll the mouse pulley and zoom it out,
then you will see the tower near the location. It would be better to take a screenshot of this
page to guide the following installing steps. Should you have any questions, please contact
our tech support.
Note: If you need help finding the tower, please contact our tech support and provide your
carrier, band and screenshots taken in the last steps.

Step 4
Connect the outdoor antenna with the booster
3.3 Determine the outdoor antenna’ s position
The outdoor antenna is usually placed at one of the 4 ends of the roof.
Please choose the position according to the tower’ s location. Make sure there are no barriers
between the antenna and the tower.
Note：At this stage, don’ t connect the indoor antenna to the booster.

Step 5
Adjust and fix the Outdoor Antenna
Step 6
Connect the indoor antenna with the booster
Step 7
Adjust the indoor antenna
Place the signal booster on a table and make sure
the booster is within the coverage area.
Have your outdoor antenna pointed to the cell tower
you found before and observe the reading on the
app. Adjust the outdoor antenna accordingly.
Notes:
(1) The output power should be the higher the better.
(2) The full output power for Dot is 10dBm. And the full
gain is 60dB.
Make sure that the gain reaches about 60dB. If not,
please increase the vertical and horizontal
distance between the two antennas or add some
barriers.

Step 8
Signal quality test
You could do the following:
(1)First make sure the signal gauge value is unchanged from that during
the outdoor antenna installation.
(2)Do speed tests with the booster on and off, and make a comparison.
(3)Check if the number of signal bars increases.
(4)Make a phone call or send messages and check if the voice and
streaming are better.

1、Try adjusting the outdoor
antenna to the best direction
2、Try adjusting the outdoor
antenna to another cell tower
3、Try increasing the height of
the outdoor antenna and make
sure there are no barriers
between the tower and the
outdoor antenna
Please try these solutions until
the output power reaches or is
over -5dBm.

Note:
Some customers have some misunderstandings about boosters, and we would like to clarify
it here:
If you can't even get a stable 1 bar outside the house or on the roof, then we suggest you
return it as it won't work in areas with very weak signal, the same is true of all boosters on the
market.

Check the band you are using
again. If it stays at band66,get
into the 'detail'/'setting' of
gagues on Signal Supervisor
and switch off RF switch of
AWS2100, then adjust the
outdoor antenna again. It would
be better if there are two
persons and one can stay near
the indoor antenna to check if
the signal is boosted.
