Welcome
This quick start guide is designed to familiarize you with the features and use of
the NetComm Wireless Smart Antenna Tool.
The Smart Antenna Tool is a battery-powered tool which connects to the
alignment port on the back of a NetComm Wireless Outdoor Unit, providing power
and a wireless access point. The installer can then use a portable wireless device,
such as a laptop or tablet, to connect to the Outdoor Unit to read signal strength
data and align it in the optimal position.

b) Compass Calibration mode - The Smart Antenna Tool contains an
electronic compass which periodically requires calibration in order to
provide the most accurate orientation possible.
Calibrate the device at every start and recalibrate when all three LED
indicators ash both red and green twice a second.
To calibrate the device, rst isolate it from any magnetic eld or metal
structures (for example vehicles, the antenna pole, power lines, etc.) and
then rotate the unit fully through all three axes, see drawings below.
When recalibration is successful, the LEDs will stop ashing.
All LEDs ashing Turn Spin Flip
c) Cell scanning mode - When the Smart Antenna Tool is connected to and
powering an Outdoor Unit (i.e. Power over Ethernet is not provided to the
Outdoor Unit). This mode is used when installing the Outdoor Unit.
Strong signal Medium signal Low signal No cell detected
