  • Page 23: Connecting Easyst To Power

    CONNECTING EASYST TO POWER EasyST is powered by an AC/DC power supply adapter which supplies the EasyST with 6 VDC and 4 Amperes. The AC/DC adapter is simply plugged into a standard electrical wall outlet (110/240 VAC; 50/60 Hz). The power adapter provides interchangeable prongs (e.g. American vs. European) that can be replaced to suit country electrical standards in which the EasyST is being installed.
  • Page 24 605-0000-703 EasyST 49 Installation User Guide-Rev D To connect the EasyST to the power supply: Before plugging the power cord into the electrical wall outlet, plug the AC/DC power adapter's power cable (i.e. DC power jack) into the EasyST's DC power socket. Plug the prongs of the AC/DC power adapter into the electrical wall outlet.

  • Page 25: Mounting Easyst

    MOUNTING EASYST Warning: The EasyST must be mounted indoors. Warning: To prevent a fire hazard caused by overheating, do not place the EasyST on a carpeted surface where airflow is restricted.

  • Page 26: Optimizing Performance

    OPTIMIZING PERFORMANCE To ensure a reliable, secure, and fast connection with your Internet Service Provider (ISP), you need to place your EasyST in a position that provides the best RF reception with the ISP (i.e. base station). To help you locate the best position, EasyST provides you with a LED indicator that indicates the strength of the RF signal with your ISP.
  • Page 27 Optimizing Performance The signal LED indicates the strength of the signal by measuring the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). SNR indicates received signal strength relative to background noise. The ratio is usually measured in decibels (dB). The higher the SNR ratio--the better the communication. The table below describes the EasyST signal LED with regards to SNR values: Color Status...

  • Page 28: Resetting To Default Settings

    RESETTING TO DEFAULT SETTINGS A future release of the EasyST will allow you to apply factory default configuration settings to the EasyST. This is performed by pressing the LED button (located below the LED lights on the top panel) continuously for at least 10 seconds.

  • Page 29: Attaching Clip-On Antenna

    ATTACHING CLIP-ON ANTENNA Warning: Before attaching the clip-on antenna, ensure that the EasyST is not connected to the power source. Do not connect and disconnect antenna while the power is on. This can cause irreversible damage to the EasyST. The EasyST is supplied with the clip-on antenna already attached to the EasyST. However, in cases where it may have accidentally being removed, you can re-attach it by following the procedure described below.
