HiBoost cell booster's exclusive cloud-based Signal Supervisor mobile application and LED indicator allows users to monitor the live status of HiBoost cell phone signal boosters directly from the LED indicator or remotely from a mobile device anywhere at any time.
We strongly recommend you to read the user guide completely before installation. The vehicle booster provides app assisted installation, which is a unique method provided by HiBoost. For more precautions and details to install and use, please follow the Signal Supervisor app.

Then why has HiBoost spent extra big efforts and costs to design app signal meter and LED light indicator to help you install? Out of many reasons, the most important one is that we would like you to get maximum gain from the vehicle booster, as it is most crucial for you to still get the signals even in quite remote areas, like in mountains or forests.

Before we start any of the two ways, please allow us to spend 4 pages to make you understand how the vehicle booster system works for you. ※ Please do spend sometime to read it fully, as it is crucial to get the best performance.

More notes on how to keep the maximum booster gain The principle is that we need to avoid oscillation between outside and inside antennas as it reduces the gain. Measures can be taken to avoid oscillation: 1) Increase the distance between outside and inside antennas, generally the same vertical distance generates more loss than horizontal distance.

Step 2: Select the installation site Drive to a place with outside signal below -85dBm. Here the 3rd party app “Network Cell Info Lite” is taken as an example. Android users can use it to test the site, so as to make sure the signal strength is about less than -85dBm. IOS users please choose Opensignal or Cell mapper.

You can also use “Network Cell Info Lite” to measure the signal strength before & after install. The good point of Network Cell Info Lite is that you can see the signal levels. Network Cell Info Lite The signal strength requested by the booster system is as below. EXCELLENT GOOD FAIR...

Download the Signal Supervisor App, register ID and booster. Register an ID rst and log in. Add the booster to the device list. Use the Signal Supervisor to help installation The booster will work at best if the gain reaches 50dB. But if you can’t get so, at least ensure the gain on the gauges reaches 46~50dB.

Travel 3.0 RV Assemble and Mount the Outside Antenna 1.1 Determine where you would like to set up the outside antenna Usually, the outside antenna is mounted to a ladder at the top of the vehicle vertically and as high as possible so that it can get a good signal.

Connect the DC Power Supply to the Booster. Use power supply or DC power supply. Place Inside Antenna & Connect the Cable Place the inside antenna horizontally on a desk or a countertop in the area where you would like to cover signal and connect it to the booster. Download the Signal Supervisor App, register ID and booster.

Travel 3.0 Truck Assemble and Mount the Outside Antenna 1.1 Determine where you would like to set up the outside antenna Usually, the outside antenna is mounted to a rearview mirror. It would be great if you could set it as high as possible. Note: Please make sure the outside antenna stay below the height limit allowed by law.

Place Inside Antenna & Connect the Cable Please place the inside antenna on the dash or the side of driver's seat. Download the Signal Supervisor App, register ID and booster. Register an ID rst and log in. Add the booster to the device list. Use the Signal Supervisor to help install The booster will work at best if the gain reaches 50dB.

Step 4: Signal quality test After reaching the MAX possible gain (50dB or as close to 50dB as possible), fix the outside & inside antennas, and then use the mobile phone to test the effect of phone call and browse the web page or video in the vehicle by 3rd party app Network Cell Info Lite &...

Step 5: Drive the vehicle to other places to see how it works Drive the vehicle to various weak areas to test the performance. Drive the vehicle to various strong areas to test the performance. Warm Tips If the vehicle is driving to quite remote places where the signal outside is particularly weak and the mobile phone cannot be used, the inside antenna can cling closely to the back of the mobile phone, so that a certain signal can be obtained.
The APP may push an alarm notice when the alarm light indicates solid blue, you do not need to adjust anything at this time, for this may be a result of excessive strong signal.
