________ Package Contents Drive X Booster & Bracket Outside Antenna Ladder Mount Inside Antenna AC/DC Wall Power Supply Outside Antenna & 25 ft.
______ Step 1: Mount Outside Antenna & Route Cable Determine where you want the Outside Antenna on your RV. Mount Outside Antenna to a ladder or pole so that the entire Outside Antenna is above the roof line of the RV and clear of other metal obstructions. NOTE: This must be in a location within reach of the booster with the 25’ coax cable (installed in Step 4). The system performs best with maximum vertical and horizontal separation.
______ (STEP 1: MOUNT OUTSIDE ANTENNA & ROUTE CABLE cont.) Determine where you want the cable to enter the RV. NOTE: With this option, we recommend doing a ‘soft install’ before drilling the hole. Set up the system by routing the cable through an open door or window, completing the setup instructions, verifying the system works as desired, and then drilling the hole. Option A: Using existing cable entry point. Option B: Through the slider on your RV (using the slider gasket as a seal).
______ Step 2: Connect Cable To Outside Antenna Determine where you want the cable to enter the RV, then connect the RG-6 cable to the Outside Antenna. Mast Extension Side Exit Adapter d Lock Threa Add thread lock on all threads with tube provided Spring NOTE: If installing with Spring, the Side Exit Adapter must be used.
______ Step 3: Inside Antenna Location Place Inside Antenna where stronger signal is desired.
______ Step 4: Booster Location & Connect Cables Find a location to place the booster, then mount by removing the bracket from back side of booster and fasten to desired surface. Snap booster back into bracket. NOTE: We recommend mounting in a cabinet near a power source. Be sure it’s in a location that cables from both Inside and Outside Antennas can reach.
______ (STEP 4: BOOSTER LOCATION & CONNECT CABLES cont.) Fasten the end with smaller SMA connection to the ‘Outside Antenna’ port on the booster. be sure to finger tighten only from Outside Antenna Connect the 13’ RG-58 cable to the ‘Inside Antenna’ port on the booster. Route the cable to the Inside Antenna.
______ (STEP 4: BOOSTER LOCATION & CONNECT CABLES cont.) Connect the 13’ RG-58 cable to the ‘Inside Antenna’ port on the booster. Route the cable and connect to the Inside Antenna.
______ Steps 5 & 6: Power Up The Booster Connect power cable to booster, then into 110V Wall plug and enjoy! NOTE: A fused 12V hardwire power supply is also included.
______ Using The Optional Cable Entry Accessories Skip if you used Option A or B in STEP 1. Pull the RG-6 cable through the rubber gasket, then place the Cable Entry Cover into the entry hole (as shown below) and fasten cover to side of RV. Use the cable mounts and ties to secure to the RV. gasket Cable Entry Cover cable mounts 10 NOTE: We recommend putting a loop going up to the cable entry hole to prevent moisture from entering the RV.
______ Measuring Booster Performance Using signal bars and data speed testing, determine the signal strength inside your RV. Note it here: iPhone® iOS 11 no longer displays the decibel (dBm) reading in ‘Field Test Mode’. Tip: Using the bar indicator on your cell phone can assist you in finding the strongest signal direction as well as placing calls in different locations. For changes/updates on this issue, periodically go to weboost.com/signalstrength.
______ (MEASURING BOOSTER PERFORMANCE cont.) Compare Results Having an accurate measurement of signal strength in decibels (dBm) is crucial when installing your system. Decibels accurately measure the signal strength you are receiving.
______ Light Patterns Solid Green This indicates that your booster is functioning properly and there are no issues with installation. Blinking Red, Then Solid Green This indicates that one or more of the booster bands has reduced power due to a feedback loop condition called oscillation. This is a built in safety feature to prevent harmful interference with a nearby cell tower. If you are already experiencing the desired signal boost, then no further adjustments are necessary.
______ Troubleshooting FIXING BLINKING OR SOLID RED ISSUES This section is only applicable if the booster is red or blinking red and you are not experiencing the desired signal boost. 1 Unplug the Booster’s power supply. 2 Relocate the inside and outside antenna further from each other. The objective is to increase the separation distance between them, so that they will not create this feedback condition discussed before. 3 Plug power supply back in. 4 Monitor the indicator light on your booster.
