The single "SELECT" button is used to scroll the display through the four
cellular bands in order to verify that each band is functioning properly . An asterisk (located
next to the band selected) will flash if one or more bands have been turned off by the
boosters control circuitry due to strong nearby cell site signal overload ("OVL") and/or
oscillation detection ("OSC") from antennas being too close .
Manual Gain Control (MGC)
All Wilson Electronics cellular boosters are equipped with microprocessor-optimized
automatic gain control (AGC) and, by default, are always operating with the highest
allowable gain and power . Situations might exist where the installer wishes to manually
adjust the uplink and/or downlink gain for each band; the Pro70 PLUS SELECT includes
this manual gain control (MGC) capability . MGC allows the user to adjust the gain, within
permitted "cell tower protection" limits .
1) RESET – Pushing and holding the "Reset" button for 2 seconds resets the Signal
Booster to default gains (max gains are monitored by cell site protection circuitry) .
Note: If the Signal Booster is unplugged, any previous manual gain settings will
remain the same as they were before being unplugged.
2) SELECT- Pressing the "Select" Button will cycle booster's display through uplink ("UL")
and downlink ("DL") gain of each cellular band .
3) UP –Adjusts the Manual Gain Control (MGC)
a) Pressing the "UP" (refer to Figure 3) button will cause the selected gain to increase by
1dB per press ("MGC" will be displayed on the screen to indicate that the booster is
operating under manual gain control) .
b) Gains will never go higher than the maximum specified for the various booster models
or as determined by cell site protection circuitry .
4) DOWN – Adjusts the Manual Gain Control (MGC)
a) Pressing the "DOWN" button will cause the selected gain to decrease by 1dB per
press ("MGC" will be displayed on the screen to indicate that the booster is operating
under manual gain control) .
b) Minimum gains are calculated based on FCC rules (noise power contribution)
and vary depending on frequency and proximity to cell tower (RSSI) . Note: the
uplink gain can never be higher than the downlink gain, in order to maintain the
integrity of cellular service .
