The information in this manual is a subject to change without prior notice. Opinions are welcomed about the manual improvement. Booster Model This user manual can be used for the models as below: Hi13- 3S/3SL/5S, Hi17-3S/3SL/5S. Note: The users of repeaters should get permission from the mobile providers for their use and installation.
And do not cover booster with anything that influences heat-dissipation. Overview Hiboost consumer boosters are designed to help mobile users amplify weak cell phone signal. The devices are bi-directional. The outdoor antenna receives the signal from the cell tower and transmits it to the signal booster, the booster amplifies the signal and the indoor antenna sends it to your mobile device.

Here are three methods can help find the strongest downlink signal from the local towers: 1. Use the LCD display on the HiBoost amplifier that shows the downlink output power on each band, We highly recommend to use this method as it is generally rather accurate.

1.2 Install the Outdoor Antenna Install the outdoor antenna in the location with the strongest received signal. IMPORTANT: Test the signal 3 times in the desired location before installing the outdoor antenna. It will help ensure the best booster performance. In most cases, the outdoor wide-band panel antenna is the best choice.
Note: Wrap waterproof tape around the connectors between outdoor antenna and feeder line to avoid water or other kind of damage. Step 2. Install the Indoor Antenna If you choose the product's built-in antenna to cover your place, no indoor antenna installation is required.
ISO status indicates if the booster has enough isolation between the outdoor and indoor antennas in order to avoid loop back or so-called self-oscillation. HiBoost is equipped with a smart AGC function to avoid interference with mobile networks. "ISO" flashing on the LCD display means that ISO function is working...

Alarm LED: Indicates the strength of the received signal from the cell tower. Flashing Alarm means that the booster is receiving a strong signal on one or more bands. Alarm LED shall remain "Green" or "Slow Flashing Green". Slow flashing green indicates that everything is working well and the booster is working at nearly the optimum output power to achieve the best possible coverage.

Eliminate flashing ISO legend and quick flashing green, quick flashing red ISO LED problems: 1. Adjust the outdoor antenna direction, keeping it away from the indoor antenna. Restart the booster. 2. Increase the vertical or horizontal distance between the outdoor antenna and indoor antenna.
Remark: • When increasing the downlink gain make sure the isolation is adequate to prevent system oscillation. Note: The flashing ISO and Alarm status indicates that ISO and ALC functions are working properly and the problems of self-oscillation and strong downlink signals are fixed.
