Using AirBooster

This section deals with the day to day use of the AirBooster amplifier after installation, as well as the care and handling to provide long life. Details on the use of the optional GPS module are covered in another section.

Operating the AirBooster RF Amplifier

Enabling of the AirBooster 350 RF amplifier requires only that the power be connected. The amplifier should show a lit green LED for POWER

indicating that it is available for use. This LED is on whether power reduction is enabled or not.

As soon as a supported device is connected to the booster, it will automatically be detected and the amplifier will begin operation. The ignition

of the vehicle does not need to be on. When a host device is detected, the STATUS indicator LED will light green.

During normal operation the STATUS indicator will blink intermittently. The light remains on while the host device is connected and will go off only during active data transmission.

To ensure that your AirBooster does not transmit in environments where use of cellular equipment is hazardous, you must disconnect the CDPD device.

Caring for Your AirBooster Amplifier

The AirBooster 350 is designed to withstand the normal conditions found in vehicles, with regard to vibration, shock, and temperature. Provided adequate care is taken in selecting a mounting location, there should not be any need for further attention.
