POWER
Normal condition at power up
Normal condition at power up
Normal condition indicating that a call is in progress and the
system is improving coverage. The Signal Light may also flash
periodically with no call in progress indicating normal
communication between the cell phone and the cell network.
Base Unit has detected a software error. Remove power for 5
seconds and reconnect power. If condition persists, contact
Wi-Ex Customer Service.
Insufficient distance between the Signal Antenna and the Base
Unit. Indoor coverage will be reduced. Increase distance
between Signal Antenna and Base Unit to achieve maximum
performance and coverage. If condition persists after
relocating Signal Antenna and/or Base Unit, contact Wi-Ex
Customer Support for additional information on set-up.
Signal received from a cell tower is too strong. Relocate Signal
Antenna to a different location to reduce the overpowering
signal. To reduce overpowering signal, relocate the Signal
Antenna to an area that receives less signal, which may be an
indoor location or a lower elevation. Remove power for 10
seconds and reconnect power after relocating antenna.
System is receiving signals from either the cell phone or the
cell tower, which are too strong for proper operation. This
may be due to improper set up or operation. Remove power
for 10 seconds and reconnect power to reset system. If the
error persists, contact Wi-Ex Customer Service for additional
information or set-up assistance.
