WARNING! Installation of antennas near power lines is dangerous. For your safety, follow all installation directions and keep safe distance from any high voltage power lines that could result in shock or loss of life.  WARNING! This equipment complies with FCC & IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. The signal booster with server antenna must be installed to provide minimum 20 cm separation distance between the server antenna to the body of user or near by person. The donor antenna used for this transmitter must be fixed-mounted on outdoor permanent structures with a separation distance of at least 1.5 meters from all persons during normal operation.  Additional wiring required to install the HB-20 system should comply with national or local governing Electrical Codes. Indoor RF coaxial cable installations should comply with local Electrical Code requirements.  The HB-20 booster is designed for indoor application. The housing is not waterproof, so please keep it away from water, rain and any chemical liquid. Do discharge the static before you touch the connectors of the booster. Do not open the module inside the booster unless you are authorized. The power supply unit in the HB-20 booster is supplied from the mains (primary AC power) that contains dangerous voltage level which will cause electric shock, Please turn off the mains before you install / uninstall the booster.The primary AC power should be in the range of AC100-240V, 50/60Hz. Booster will be damaged if the primary AC power is out of the range. The RF electric performance of the HB-20 booster conforms to ETSI requirement of the inter modulation and spurious emission. It avoids the interference problem.

To the typical user, this translates to the inability to place or receive mobile phone calls in or out of the area, and in most cases will result in a dropped call while entering into the poor coverage area. Insufficient wireless coverage can occur both indoors and outdoors, and may include indoor areas such as office buildings, parking garages, apartment buildings, shopping malls, and residential homes. Outdoor areas are degraded by geographic topologies such as mountains, valleys, dense foliage and high rising urban landscapes which can easily degrade or obstruct the cell site’s signal from the mobile phone.  The weak coverage problem can be solved by installing an active booster system, designed for use in a multitude of installation configurations. Booster systems provide an effective solution by redirecting, filtering and amplifying the available signal at the donor antenna, into the weak coverage area, through a properly selected interior coverage antenna. The illumination of the weak coverage area allows the user’s handset to operate as intended within the building or weak coverage area, while maintaining the user’s call clarity .

The donor antenna must be pointed toward the cell of the base station from where the signal is to be picked up and is usually mounted on the exterior of the building so as to receive the maximum forward signal level from the base station. The indoor antenna of HB-20 booster provides RF signal in all directions downward and outward from the installation point.. A adopter is supplied with HB-20, powered by universal 100-240 VAC mains supply. A standard length of 10 mtr RF coaxial cable with connectors is supplied to connect the donor antenna and HB-20 booster. Any other RF coaxial cable length is also available optionally, on request.        .

However, performance also depends on the amount of in-building shadowing, and the available forward signal level at the donor antenna. Typical coverage is usually planned for relatively small areas such as large conference room or several adjacent rooms in smaller office areas. Indoor coverage varies greatly due to the nature of various building construction techniques and materials.  The system design is quite simple & straightforward. The signal from the base station (of the selected Operator) is picked up, preferably on the rooftop. The built in receive signal level indicator in HB-20 booster helps in aligning the donor antenna towards the selected base station & it always shows the received signal level from the base station. It is imperative to monitor the received signal level from the base station, also called downlink signal. Downlink signal may change if some high building, trees or any other obstruction comes in the way of line of site (LOS) between the BTS & the Donor antenna. This may reduce the downlink received signal level  & will result in poor service.

Once the expected coverage area is determined, identify the installation location for the donor antenna and HB-20 booster. Ensure that the donor antenna has a direct line-of-site to the service provider’s base station.   2.  HB-20 installation site location criterion  i.  A cool, dry location, away from other heat generating appliances or equipment. ii.  Accessibility to electric power point. iii.  Flat, structural mounting surface. iv.  Accommodation for the indoor antenna providing line-of-site coverage to as much of the coverage area as possible.  5.2 Installation Tools  You will only need the standard wrenches/hammer/screwdrivers/pliers set for installing the HB-20 booster and donor antenna.  5.3  Installation Procedure:  Do It Yourself    To install HB-20 booster, follow the steps as mentioned below: 1.   Locate weak signal areas by moving around with a mobile phone and the SIM card of the cellular operator, and check the signal level indicated by the number of bars on the mobile phone display.  2.   Similarly, locate donor  (outdoor) antenna position by observing the maximum signal received from the base station.  3.   Unpack the equipment supplied and check as per the packing list. 4   Mount the donor (outdoor) antenna at the position selected (ref 2 above).

Please remember the following important points:  i.  The RF cable must not be kinked, cut or damaged in any way. ii.  Connect the RF cable to the donor antenna taking care to avoid cross threading or stripping. The RF connections should be snug and tight. iii.  Seal the outdoor connectors with waterproof sealant (such as M–seal) or the appropriate weather tight boot.  5.4  Power Startup / Alarm Checks / Coverage Testing      1.  Plug in the AC/DC Power Adapter power cord to AC main and other side DC plug insert 9V DC socket in Home Booster.  2.  When the booster is ON initially all the LED’s will blink two times.  3.  The system will automatically control the attenuation to keep the both       uplink and downlink output power at a constant level of 10dBm. The       system will insert or release the attenuation by 1dB step.    3.  Alarm indication LED will glow red colour, after inserting all the attenuation        the output power is greater than the desired level ( 10dBm ) the system will     Shutdown the PA for 30 seconds and restart .  If so, refer annexure 2forRectification or contact SHYAM technical support

B.  Signals are not amplified after completing the installation 2.  Check all the connectors of the booster system for proper connections. The “BTS” connector has to be connected to donor antenna, and the “MS” connector has to be connected to server antenna. 3. The poor isolation between donor and server antenna will cause system oscillation and it may damage the amplifier of the booster.  It is to note that the booster gain should be at least 10 db lower than the antenna isolation.      C.  The system performed well in the beginning but after few days the performance has degraded. 1.  The received signal level from the base station might have degraded due to environmental changes such as new building construction and so on. If so, please follow the suggestions below: a.   Try to re-align the donor antenna towards the base station b.  Adjust the gain attenuation of the Up or Down link direction c.   Relocate the donor antenna to solve the problem  2.  RF Cable problem:  Check the RF cable for physical damage by rats etc. Also check for sharp bands or RF cable pressed. Under these

If so, replace RF cable. 3.  Indoor structural change: The signal level will vary according to the interiors. Look for any interior changes subsequent to the booster installation or site survey. If so, adjust the gain of booster or re-align the server antenna without affecting the existing coverage.     D.   Alarm indication LED will glow in red colour.  It indicates that the received signal level from BTS is high or forward / reverse gain of booster is high. If alarm persists for a long time contact SHYAM technical support team.
