Quick Start User's Guide
Before You Start - Completely charge up your Squid-4G using the supplied
port for later use with a PC. Be sure to also securely connect all antennas to the Squid-4G for maximum sensitivity.
Starting Up - Power up Squid-4G by pressing the pushbutton trackball or center keypad black button (model depen-
dent) on the front of the unit. You should notice a horizontal startup bar for approximately 20 seconds. After startup,
Squid-4G scans all nearby cellular networks followed by the acquisition of base station names and finally GPS satel-
lite lock. Time scan usually takes between 1 to 2 minutes total for all networks.
Connecting Antenna - Be sure to connect all antennas before making scanning for any carriers. The antenna inputs
are hardwired to their respective bands. Looking at thr rear of the unit:
Top left SMA connection is for CDMA carriers like Verizon
Right SMA connection is for UMTS/GSM carriers like AT&T and T-Mobile
Bottom left connection is only for GPS connection (active GPS antenna only).
Magnetic Hook - Squid-4G contains a fold-out hook that easily slips onto a utlity belt or low hanging wire. The embed-
ded magnet also allows Squid-4G to be mounted temporarily to metal surfaces.
4G LTE base stations are
listed according to their wire-
less carriers. Not all carriers
are supported. Some carri-
ers sharing bandwidth with
other carriers will not be
displayed. Consult the FCC's
commercial 4G allocation for
your area for details.
