INSTALLATION Installation recommendations • 4G.evox must be installed in a location where the radio signal allows for using the 4G LTE/UMTS/GSM system. • It is advisable to leave plenty of space around 4G.evox for maintenance operations. • Do not install 4G.evox outdoors, since it lacks protection devices against weather conditions that can damage 4G.evox (water, humidity, etc.).
➢ Position the antenna with magnetic base so that any metal surfaces do not block the signal. Connection to the telephone line ➢ Connect 4G.evox to a standard telephone or to the PSTN input terminals of a PABX or autodialer using the TEL terminals (E in the picture at page Page 11...
Turning 4G.evox on ➢ Power 4G.evox. ➢ Wait 45 seconds after power-up to give time to 4G.evox to register correctly with the 4G LTE/UMTS/GSM network. ➢ Make sure the red LED (device status) flashes as shown in chapter “Signals”...
➢ Drill two holes with 5 mm diameter on the wall at a distance of 50 mm. ➢ Insert the 2 wall plugs and screws down until the screws are at a 5 mm distance from the wall. ➢ Place 4G.evox onto the two screws through the two back slots. Page 14...
PROGRAMMING It is possible to configure 4G.evox locally via a multi-frequency telephone or remotely via SMS. ROGRAMMING VIA TELEPHONE ➢ Connect 4G.evox to a multi-frequency telephone using TEL terminals (E in the picture at page 8). ➢ Lift the handset and dial the desired programming code (see table "Programming via telephone").
