MultiWave Sensors Smart Aligner User manual

QUICK GUIDE v2
Before starting DOWNLOAD the Smart Aligner App to your iPhone (iOS 7.0 or greater) or Android phone (4.1 or greater). For iOS go to the App Store and search “Smart
Aligner”. For Android go to the Google Play Store and search “smart aligner multiwave”. The iOS App and Android App have some differences as a result of different
operating systems. For Android devices with operating system less than 4.4 the Report will be in JPG format. For Android 4.4 the Report will be in PDF format (if high
resolution images are required select the JPEG option in Settings). This guide will show the user how to carry out an antenna alignment from start to finish for one
antenna and tool mounting configuration.
