2.1 Connect the power supply

Connect the cables of the power supply as shown in this

illustration. Connect the red cable to the +Vdc

connector and the black cable to the GND connector.

2.2 Check LED Indicators

When the Netbiter gateway has powered up, the LED indicators will

show the operating status of the module.

The Power LED should be showing steady green, indicating that the

module is powered and running.

The GSM signal LED indicator shows the signal level of the reception on

the connected GSM network. Make sure that the unit has good

reception, showing a minimum of two green flashes on the GSM signal

indicator.

Signal Strength Indications

The strength of the mobile network signal is indicated as shown in the table below.

GSM signal

Low signal

One (1) flash indicates a poor signal. The gateway might be able to

connect to the GSM network, but the connection is probably not

stable or reliable.

Make sure the antenna is correctly mounted and points

upwards.

Improve antenna reception by trying a different antenna

placement.

If possible, use another external antenna.

Medium signal

Two (2) flashes indicate an acceptable, although not optimal signal.

Improve antenna reception by trying a different antenna placement.

Good signal

Three (3) flashes indicate a good and stable signal on the GSM

network.
