9.4.6 Positioning the Antenna

1. To begin with, point the antenna in the general direction of the CCU, as shown in
Figure 42:
Figure 42
As illustrated, for maximum signal reception, point the concave surface of the antenna
toward the CCU, and ensure your body (including fingers) are not between the
antenna and the CCU.
2. Monitor the Radio LED, shown in
the antenna until the Radio LED is flashing quickly, or is ON solidly, indicating that you
have a good to very-good radio signal. After each repositioning or reorientation of the
antenna, you may have to step back from the antenna so that you are not interfering
with the received signal.

3. If the Radio LED is off or flashes slowly, then the antenna should be moved to a better
location. Keep in mind that the antenna and EUM do not have to be located in the
same room as the end-user's PC since up to 100m (300ft.) of CAT5 data cable can
connect the EUM to the PC.
4. If you cannot find an indoor antenna location that provides a solid ON or fast-flashing
LED, refer to
5. Once you have found a good location, you are ready to mount the antenna, as
described in
