times during the installation of the ZEN equipment. If
equipment not shipped with the ZEN system is to be
used during installation or mounting, follow all equipment
manufacturer’s instructions in proper use to ensure injury
is avoided.
The Network Access Unit and Coverage Unit of the ZEN system are low power
transmitters. As with a cell phone antenna, avoid unneccessary contact with
the front of the units when they units are operating. Mount the units in a
location where people will not approach within 1 foot of the front of the
Network Access Unit or the Coverage Unit.
Warning! For your safety, do not connect or disconnect
the RF coaxial cable from the Network Access Unit or
Coverage Unit while the power is connected to the
Coverage Unit. Power to the Network Access Unit is
supplied from the Coverage Unit through the coaxial
cable. Connecting or disconnecting the coaxial cable
while the system is powered may result in electric shock or
damage to the equipment.

Introduction
Congratulations! You have purchased one of the finest personal wireless coverage systems available on
the market. The content of this manual complements the Spotwave® ZEN Quick Install Guide and
provides specific details that may be referred to if necessary during installation of a ZEN coverage system.
No Special Knowledge Or Equipment Needed
Installation of your ZEN system does not require any specialized technical knowledge. The system can be
installed by any person(s) with the ability to use a screwdriver, and in some situations may require the use of
a ladder, drill, and additional related tools.
ZEN System at a Glance
The purpose of the ZEN system is to enable personal wireless communications in specific locations within
a wireless service area where cell phones do not work, or work poorly, for example inside a basement, or
at the cell boundary.
The ZEN system receives signals from one or more wireless base stations and relays the signal to areas
where cell phones do not work or work poorly due to obstructions or the remoteness of the location.
The basic ZEN intelligent coverage system is comprised of a Network Access Unit, a Coverage Unit and a
power supply. The Network Access Unit is the outward facing part of the system that communicates with
the base station or cell tower. The Network Access Unit is connected (via coaxial cable) to the Coverage
Unit which provides wireless coverage to indoor areas.

Installation
ZEN is a simple-to-install system that includes everything you need. The basic steps for installing your
system are to first locate the best signal within 35 feet of the area requiring coverage and then mounting
the Network Access Unit and Coverage Unit.
Before you begin
The following are general considerations and preparations that should be looked at before installing the
ZEN coverage system.
Signal Strength
The ZEN system brings signals from an area of
adequate coverage to an area with poor or non-
existent coverage. It is the Network Access Unit which
captures a good signal, and the Coverage Unit that
provides the signal to the area with poor cell phone
coverage. The Network Access Unit can be mounted
inside or outside, as long as it is in an area where your
cell phone works.
Generally, the better your cell phone works at the
location the Network Access Unit is to be mounted,
the better the system will perform.
Network Access Unit Location and Height
Locating the Network Access Unit on an
exterior wall and as high as possible will
usually provide better performance.
Locate the Network
Access Unit where
your mobile phone
works best
![](/img.php?id=635613&img=bg6.png)
INSTALLATION
4
Coverage Unit proximity to mobile phone
To maintain system integrity, the
Coverage Unit will temporarily go into
“Mute mode” if a mobile phone is closer
than 2 feet. To avoid the ZEN system
temporarily going mute, locate the
Coverage Unit at least 2 feet away from
where mobile phones are used.
Avoid obstructions
General placement of the Network Access Unit and Coverage
Unit must be in unobstructed areas.
For example, the Coverage Unit should not be placed on a wall
behind any type of furniture (behind items such as metal filing
cabinets would be a particularly poor location). Similarly, the
Network Access Unit should not be directly facing any type of
metal structures.
Proximity to power source
The Coverage Unit must be located within 6 feet (2 meters) of a power source.
![](/img.php?id=635613&img=bg7.png)
INSTALLATION
5
Distance between Network Access Unit and Coverage Unit
Although you should separate the Network Access Unit and Coverage Unit as much as possible (the
minimum distance between the two units is 15 feet) you are limited by the length of coaxial cable that can
be used.
The ZEN system ships with 35
feet (10 meters) of coaxial cable,
but up to 50 ft of coaxial shielded
CATV coaxial cable can be used.
If the distance between the two
units is less than 15 feet or
coaxial cable longer than 50 ft is
used, the coverage performance
will be reduced.
Orientation of Network Access Unit relative to Coverage Unit
If possible face the Network Access Unit and
Coverage Unit in opposite directions, and
back to back while maintaining maximum
separation. While not a requirement, some
installations will perform better if the units are
positioned in this manner. This is generally
less important for an outside mounted
Network Access Unit than one mounted
inside.
Barrier between Network Access Unit and Coverage Unit
The greater the physical obstruction between the Network Access Unit and Coverage Unit, the better the
performance. Dense obstructions such as brick, concrete or metal walls are better than wooden or
plaster walls.
Warning! For your safety, do not connect or disconnect the RF coaxial cable from the Network Access
Unit or Coverage Unit while the power is connected to the Coverage Unit. Power to the Network Access
Unit is supplied from the Coverage Unit through the coaxial cable. Connecting or disconnecting the
coaxial cable while the system is powered may result in electric shock or damage to the equipment.

Choosing a location for the Network Access Unit
The Network Access Unit is the outward facing unit. It is the unit that picks up the signal from and
communicates with the service providers base station network.
Positioning the Network Access Unit
The following outlines the procedure for locating a Network Access Unit.
1. Use your mobile phone to identify the inside
location with the strongest received signal
(usually near an outside facing wall). If no
adequate signal is available indoors then it
may be necessary to try an outside location
(such as an outside roof or external wall)
where a stronger signal is received.
2. Position the Network Access Unit (but do not
physically mount it) in the location that showed
the strongest signal.
While not a requirement, it is highly recommended that the Network Access Unit be installed 3 to 4
feet away from the glass when facing a tinted window1
3. Position the Coverage Unit (but do not physically mount it) in the area that requires coverage. The
Coverage Unit must also be located at least 15 feet (5 meters) away from the Network Access Unit.
4. Use your mobile phone to note the signal level (number of bars) at the Coverage Unit.
1. Tinted windows may contain metallic particles which can degrade the signal more than
the adjacent exterior wall.
Identify the
location with the
strongest signal

5. Connect the Coverage Unit to the Network Access Unit with the provided coaxial cable.
Note: To avoid potential signal loss, ensure there are no sharp bends or kinks in the cable. The minimum
bend radius of the supplied coax cable is 1½ inches. Exceeding this limit may result in signal loss or cable
damage that will impact system performance.
6. Connect the power supply to the Coverage Unit, and then plug the adapter into an AC outlet.
Note: Use only the power supply provided with the ZEN system. Connecting a power supply from another
Spotwave system may damage the unit and cause it to fail.
![](/img.php?id=635613&img=bgb.png)
INSTALLATION
9
7. Verify that the ZEN system is working by measuring the signal level (number of bars) near the
Coverage Unit and comparing it to that measured before the system was turned on in step 4.
Note: Your mobile phone must be at least 2 feet away from the Coverage Unit for the ZEN system to work
properly. The system will temporarily go into mute mode if a mobile phone is brought within 2 feet of the
Coverage Unit.
If there is no improvement in coverage, try pointing the Network Access Unit in a different
direction (away from the Coverage Unit).
You may have to try several different directions before seeing improved coverage.
8. Proceed to Mounting the Network Access Unit in the location and direction that showed the best
coverage.
Positioning the Network Access Unit Outdoors
It may not be possible to install the Network Access Unit indoors when installing the ZEN solution in
remote areas. If you are installing the Network Access Unit outdoors in a remote area, then an effort
should be made to mount the unit as high as possible.
Warning! Failure to properly ground an outdoor mounted Network Access Unit will leave the unit and
building vulnerable to damage from lightning strikes. Check local building and electrical code
requirements and comply with both local and national regulations.

Mounting the Network Access Unit
Mount the Network Access Unit only after the optimal location for the unit has been determined (see
“Choosing a location for the Network Access Unit”). The ZEN system ships with basic hardware for
mounting the Network Access Unit to an inside or outside wall.
Flush mounting the Network Access Unit to an inside wall
To mount the Network Access Unit flush to an inside wall.
1. Fasten two screws to the wall, 5½ inches
vertically apart.
Leave approximately a ¼ inch gap between
the head of the screws and the wall.
2. Align the Network Access Unit’s two keyholes
over the screws and slide the unit down until it
snaps into place.
For easy drywall installation, you can locate where
the drywall anchors need to be placed by pressing
the Network Access Unit against the drywall. Tiny
marks will be left in the wall and the screws or
drywall anchors should be installed between these
marks.

Trouble-Shooting
1. Status: The system is not providing any coverage and the LED on the bottom of the Network
Access Unit is flashing red.
A flashing red LED indicates that the system is in mute mode, which can be caused by either a cell
phone or the Network Access Unit being too close to the Coverage Unit.
Action: If possible, move the Coverage Unit farther away from the Network Access Unit and ensure
that your cell phone is not closer than 2 feet from the Coverage Unit.
2. Status: The system is not providing any coverage and the LED on the bottom of the Network
Access Unit is solid red.
A solid red LED indicates a hardware fault condition.
Action: The ZEN system should be returned to the point of sale for exchange.
3. Status: The LED on the Network Access Unit is not illuminating.
Action: Ensure the following:
The cable from the Network Access Unit is properly connected to the Coverage Unit.
The power supply is connected to the Coverage Unit.
The power supply is plugged into an electrical outlet.
If the LED is still not illuminating, then return the ZEN system to the point of sale for exchange.
4. Status: My phone does not work around the location I would like to install the Network Access Unit.
Action: Try positioning the Network Access Unit outside as high as possible.
5. Status: The Network Access Unit and Coverage Unit are installed properly, but your cell phone
works poorly in the area that should be covered.
Action: There are three factors that may be affecting coverage as described below:
Visually inspect the area around the Coverage Unit. Ensure that there are not any large metallic
objects directly between the Coverage Unit and the area where cell phone coverage is not
adequate. Remount the Coverage Unit so that it is out in the open.
If the signal the Network Access Unit is receiving is very weak (although still strong enough to
allow operation), the area around the Coverage Unit within which a cell phone can function will
be relatively small. An effort can be made to improve system performance by raising or
otherwise repositioning the Network Access Unit in an effort to obtain a stronger signal.
check with your vendor that your ZEN product is compatible with your cell phone service.
6. Status: The coverage area around the Coverage Unit shrinks after a long period of reliable operation.
Action: This is most likely due to man made environmental influences such as a large building being
erected somewhere in between the Network Access Unit and the location the Network Access Unit
is receiving a signal from. Repeating the install procedure with the Network Access Unit in its current
position may improve system performance (i.e. re-aligning and mounting it in the direction that
provides greater signal strength). If this does not help, the Network Access Unit may have to be
physically repositioned at a different location; going through the install procedure starting at
Choosing a location for the Network Access Unit on page 7, is necessary at this point.
