INSTALLATION
Location and Setup
The Phonecell
®
SX5 comes with a standard spike antenna (TNC). For optimal signal strength,
choose a location that is above ground and as close to windows (or exterior walls) as possible -
See Figure 2. Cellular signal strength is displayed by the Received Signal Strength Indicator
(RSSI) LED on the unit - See the How to Use the LED Status Indicators section of this guide.
1) Connect the antenna to the side of the terminal - see Figure 1.
2) Finger-tighten the antenna; do not over-tighten.
To Wall-Mount the SX5e
1) Mark two hole locations 98.5mm (3-7/8 inches) vertically apart and drill two holes into the
wall.
2) Install the screws (not supplied) into the wall, leaving a gap (approximately 3 mm (1/8 inch))
between screw head and wall.
3) Align the mounting holes with the screws and mount the Phonecell
®
SX5 onto the screws -
See Figures 3 and 4.
Figure 2 – For optimal call clarity, the antenna should
be pointed up and the SX5e located close to an exterior
wall or window.
