STEP 1 Attach Booster
Antenna to Booster & Place In
Desired Location
Attach the Booster Antenna to Home
Studio/Home Studio Lite Booster and
place in room where stronger cell
signal is needed.
Pole mounting is preferred because it will
be easier to adjust to the direction of the
cell tower. Use the U-Bolts to attach the
Antenna to a pole or exhaust pipe on roof.

(STEP 2 cont.)
Point the Outside Antenna toward the
nearest cell phone tower. To find the
nearest tower, use an app such as
‘Open Signal’. This is the most critical
step of the installation process because
it will determine the overall performance
of the Booster System.
Side mounting is a option if you
can still obtain strong signal.
Note: Drip holes should be
pointed down towards ground.

STEP 3 Route & Connect
Outside Antenna To Booster
Connect the white RG-6 Cable to
Outside Antenna and route and
connect cable to Home Studio/Home
Studio Lite Booster. All connections
should be finger tightened only.
Plug the Power Supply into wall outlet then
connect into end of Booster.
NOTE: We strongly recommend using a
power strip with surge protection.
STEP 4 Power Up The Booster

(STEP 4 cont.)
After powering up your system, check to
see how your talk, text, and data rates
have improved. If more is desired, you can
optimize your system.
Rotate the Outside Antenna in 1/8 turn
increments, after each turn, unplug and
reconnect the Booster to power while
observing the signal level on your cell
phone from the Inside Antenna’s projected
area. When you have determined a direction
that gives you the strongest signal, secure
the Outside Antenna in place. Below gives
you an idea of how much boosted cell signal
coverage this system will bring indoors
based on how strong the outside signal is.
After each rotation, observe
signal level on your cell phone
from the Inside Antenna’s
projected area.

GREEN
This indicates that your Home Studio or Home
Studio Lite Booster is functioning properly and
there are no issues with installation.
SOLID RED
Band has shuto. This is due to a feedback
loop condition called oscillation. This is a built
in safety feature that causes a band to shut
o to prevent harmful interference with a
nearby cell tower. Refer to Troubleshooting
section.
BLINKING GREEN, RED
This indicates that the Booster is operating
at a reduced gain to prevent oscillation
(feedback). 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. If you are not experiencing the desired boost in coverage then refer to the
Troubleshooting section.
BLINKING GREEN, YELLOW
This indicates Band has reduced gain. This indicates that one or more of the Booster
bands has reduced power due to overload from nearby cell tower. 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. If you are not experiencing the desired boost in coverage then refer to the
Troubleshooting section.
SOLID YELLOW
Band has shuto due to overload from nearby cell tower. Outside Antenna must be
adjusted. Refer to Troubleshooting section.
LIGHTS OFF
If the Signal Amplifier’s light is o, verify your Power Supply has power.

FIXING RED LIGHT ISSUES
This involves Solid Red & Blinking Green/Red lights.
■ Tighten all cable connections (be sure to handtighten only, do NOT use tools).
You may want to undo and redo the connection completely. Unplug and replug
in Power Supply.
■ Increase the distance (horizontally or vertically) between the Outside and Inside
Antennas. Add included cable if needed. Unplug and replug in Power Supply.
FIXING ANY YELLOW LIGHT ISSUES
This involves Solid Yellow & Blinking Green/Yellow lights.
■ Outside Antenna must be adjusted. Disconnect and reconnect power between
adjustments. Wait at least 10 seconds between adjustments for the lights to reset.
Pole Mount Option: Rotate the Outside Antenna away from the strongest cellular
signal in small increments (1/8 turn) until the light turns green. Unplug and replug in
Power Supply. Mounting On Side Of Roof Option: Change mount location. Move the
Outside Antenna to location of the home/building to see if the lights turn green. Unplug
and replug in Power Supply. Then secure in place.
