ABOUT THE MESHPORT RED

back of the unit along the guide
rail, as shown in the illustration,
until you hear a click.
2. Mount the assembled unit in a
convenient location, such as on
your belt, with the antenna
upwards.
3. Angle the antenna away from
you to prevent it from interfering
with your movement.
