Before installation, ensure adequate separation between the locations of the outside antenna and Inside antenna – at least 25 ft.
1. FIND AREA OUTSIDE WITH STRONGEST SIGNAL
Using your phone, identify the outside location with the strongest signal. Generally, this is found on the side facing your nearest
cell tower and as high as possible.
Note that Bars are not always a reliable measure of signal. The best way to confirm signal coverage is the ability to place and hold
a call. For specific dB signal measurements, use the methods below. Note that dB measurements appear as a negative number
where the closer to 0, the stronger the signal (eg. -100 dB would be considered a weak signal while -65 dB a strong signal).
Apple iPhones: Dial *3001#12345#* and press Call. In the top-left corner, a dB number appears instead of bars.
Android devices: download the app "Network Signal Info" in the Google Play store.
This signal booster requires a minimum cellular signal reading of -100dB at the location of the outside antenna. Signal between
-70dB and -90dB is recommended for best performance.
Please note: Signal stronger than -50dB may cause the affected frequency bands to turn off.
2. INSTALL THE OUTSIDE ANTENNA
Once you have located the area of strongest signal, mount the antenna to a pole or pipe (not included) at the highest possible
elevation. The directional Yagi antenna works best when facing the direction of your carrier's cellular tower. To find the location
of your carrier's closest cell tower go to www.cellreception.com.
To install the outside antenna, assemble the u-bolt, bracket, nuts and washers as shown in the illustration. Keep the connec-
tions loose enough to allow the antenna to rotate until the optimum direction is found.
Note: The outside antenna may be installed on a variety of pipe angles. Ensure that the mounting area has at least a 12-inch
radius clear of obstructions and other radiating elements and orient the antenna vertically with the drip hole at the bottom.
Once the outside antenna is secured to a pipe or pole, connect one end of the provided 50 ft. coax cable to the antenna and
tighten the connection.
3. ASSEMBLE THE SIGNAL BOOSTER AND INSIDE ANTENNA
Connect the inside antenna to the booster by screwing it directly into the port of the booster labeled "INSIDE". Next, select a
location for the booster that is close to a working AC outlet*. Because the supplied inside antenna is omni-directional (i.e. it broad-
casts signal in a 360º radius), the booster should be placed in a central location with the antenna oriented in an upright position.
Should you choose to mount the booster to a wall, screws have been provided. Use the supplied screws or appropriate screws
for surface of mounting location and drill through screw tab holes on booster (see Diagram).
Connect the remaining end of the RG6 coax cable to the booster port marked "OUTSIDE" and tighten the connection.
4. CONNECT POWER
Next, connect the AC power cord to the booster and plug into a 110V AC power outlet. Once the booster has been completely
assembled, turn the booster's power switch on.
Note: If the Power LED does not turn ON or the Alert LEDs continue to flash, see the Troubleshooting section. This booster is rated for 5-15V input
voltage. DO NOT use the booster with a higher voltage power supply. This can damage the booster, cause personal injury and void your warranty.
CONFIGURE GAIN SETTINGS
The SureCall gain dials should always be at maximum level unless the control light in a specific band is flashing red or flashing
red-yellow. In either of these cases, the first action should be to increase the antenna isolation between the inside and outside
antenna as much as possible and restart the booster. If the situation continues, you can lower the gain with an attenuator or, as
the last resort, reduce the booster gain by 5dB at a time until the control light in the frequency band flashes yellow.
If you Want to Improve Coverage
1.
Find a location that receives a stronger signal and relocate the outside antenna to that location.
2.
Optimize the Yagi antenna angle.
3.
Increase the distance between the outside and inside antenna.
4.
Set each dial on the booster to maximum gain.

Troubleshooting
Problem
Resolution
Signal booster has no power
Connect the power supply to an alternate power source.
Verify that the power source is not controlled by a switch that has removed power from
the outlet.
If the POWER LED on the signal booster is OFF, contact tech support at: 1-888-365-6283
or support@surecall.com
After completing installation,
(1) Verify that all cable connections are tightly fitted. (2) Try further separating the booster
indoor signal coverage has not
and antenna. (3) Verify that there is usable signal where the outside antenna is placed.

signal coverage is the ability to place and hold a call.
LED Indicators
Color
Condition Indication
Off
This is part of normal operation. Light is off while band is active.
Yellow
Solid
This is part of normal operation. Indicates that the band is Inactive. After a period of time, if there's
no activity the band will go into sleep mode. Light is off while band is active.
Yellow
Flashing
This is part of normal operation. Indicates that the Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is self-adjusting.
Red
Flashing
Indicates that the booster is receiving too much signal which could cause the affected band to
automatically turn off. When this happens:
1. For kits using an OMNI outside antenna, relocate the outside antenna to a location where the signal
is weaker.
2. For kits using a YAGI outside antenna, turn the antenna in short increments away from the signal source.
3. Increase the separation between antennas (additional vertical separation works best).
4. Add an inline attenuator to the cable coming into the outside port of the booster.
5. As a last resort, turn down the dB gain on the dial until the light goes off or flashes yellow.
Yellow/
Alternately
Oscillation is detected.
Red
Flashing
First, try increasing the separation between the inside and outside antennas. If your booster kit uses
two directional antennas (example: outside Yagi antenna and inside panel antenna), ensure that they
are facing away from one another.
If oscillation continues, lower the dB gain in small increments until the light turns off or flashes yellow.
Red
Solid
Band is off.
If a red light has been flashing for an extended time, the band will automatically shut off and display a
solid red light.
This can also happen when the booster attenuation has been turned all the way down.
WARNING: Do not attenuate the uplink and downlink dB settings below 35dB. This could cause the affected frequency band to turn off.
