NOTE: Keep in mind to stay below the maximum height limit allowed by law, which varies from state to state (generally 4.25

meters in western states and 4.1 meters in eastern states).

Determine where you want the outside

antenna on your RV. Mount outside

antenna to a ladder or pole so that the

entire outside antenna is above the roof

line of the RV and clear of other metal

obstructions.

Verify the outside antenna is the correct

height, if so, use thread locker (provided) to

thread points and screw into place.

NOTE: When adding the side exit adapter

hold the outside antenna vertically and

screw the side exit adapter from the

bottom up. This reduces cable twisting.

mount to ladder or pole. If installing

with spring, the side exit adapter

must be used. Then route 7.6 meters

SOLID GREEN

This indicates that your Drive Reach booster is functioning properly and there are no

issues with installation.

SOLID RED

Band has shuto. This is due to a feedback loop condition called oscillation. This is a

built in safety feature that causes a band to shut o to prevent harmful interference

with a nearby cell tower. Refer to Troubleshooting section.

BLINKING RED, THEN SOLID GREEN

This indicates that one or more of the booster bands has reduced power due to a

minor feedback loop condition called oscillation. This is a built in safety feature to

prevent harmful interference with a nearby cell tower. If you are already experiencing

the desired signal boost, then no further adjustments are necessary. If you are not

experiencing the desired boost in coverage then refer to the Troubleshooting section.

Light O

If the Drive Reach signal booster’s light is o, verify your power supply has power.

Booster Light Patterns

9

ENGLISH

(Booster Light Patterns cont.)

NOTE: The signal booster can be reset by disconnecting and reconnecting

the power supply.

After troubleshooting you must initiate a new power cycle by disconnecting and then

reconnecting power to the booster.

10 ENGLISH

FIXING BLINKING OR RED LIGHT ISSUES

This section is only applicable if the booster is red or blinking red and you are not

experiencing the desired signal boost.

1 Unplug the booster’s power supply.

 Relocate the inside and outside antenna further from each other. The objective is

to increase the separation distance between them, so that they will not create this

feedback condition discussed before.

3 Plug power supply back in.

4 Monitor the indicator light on your booster. If, after a few seconds of ‘power

on’, a solid or blinking red light appears, repeat steps 1 through 3. Increase the

separation distance until the condition is corrected and/or desired coverage area

is achieved. Note: Horizontal separation of the two antennas typically requires a

shorter separation distance than vertical separation.

If you are having any diculties while testing or installing your booster, contact our

weBoost Customer Support team for assistance (1.866.294.1660).

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How can I contact customer support?

Customer Support can be reached Monday thru Friday by calling 1.866.294.1660, or

through our support site at support.weboost.com.

Why do I need to create distance between the booster and the antenna?

Antennas connected to a booster create spheres of signal. When these spheres

overlap, a condition called oscillation occurs. Oscillation can be thought of as noise,

which causes the booster to scale down it’s power or shut down to prevent damage.

The best way to keep these spheres of signal from overlapping is to maximize

separation between the inside and outside antennas.

Safety Guidelines

Use only the power supply provided in this package. Use of a non-weBoost product may damage your

equipment.

Connecting this signal booster directly to the cell phone with use of an adapter will damage the cell phone.

RF Safety Warning: Any antenna used with this device must be located at least 8 inches from all persons.

AWS Warning: The outside antenna must be installed no higher than 10 meters (31’9”) above ground.

This is a CONSUMER device.

BEFORE USE, you MUST REGISTER THIS DEVICE with your wireless provider and have your provider’s consent. Most

wireless providers consent to the use of signal boosters. Some providers may not consent to the use of this device on

their network. If you are unsure, contact your provider.

In Canada, BEFORE USE you must meet all requirements set out in ISED CPC-2-1-05.

You MUST operate this device with approved antennas and cables as speciﬁed by the manufacturer. Antennas MUST be

installed at least 20 cm (8 inches) from (i.e., MUST NOT be installed within 20 cm of) any person.

You MUST cease operating this device immediately if requested by the FCC (or ISED in Canada) or licensed wireless

service provider.

WARNING. E911 location information may not be provided or may be inaccurate for calls served by using this device.

Drive Reach Cell Signal Booster

Each Signal Booster is individually tested and factory set to ensure FCC compliance. The Signal Booster cannot be adjusted without factory reprogramming or disabling the

hardware. The Signal Booster will amplify, but not alter incoming and outgoing signals in order to increase coverage of authorized frequency bands only. If the Signal Booster

is not in use for five minutes, it will reduce gain until a signal is detected. If a detected signal is too high in a frequency band, or if the Signal Booster detects an oscillation, the

Signal Booster will automatically turn the power off on that band. For a detected oscillation the Signal Booster will automatically resume normal operation after a minimum of

1 minute. After 5 (five) such automatic restarts, any problematic bands are permanently shut off until the Signal Booster has been manually restarted by momentarily removing

power from the Signal Booster. Noise power, gain, and linearity are maintained by the Signal Booster’s microprocessor.

The term “IC” before the radio certification number only signifies that Industry Canada technical specifications were met. This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules.

This device contains licence-exempt transmitter(s)/receiver(s that comply with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s licence-exempt RSS(s). Operation is

subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause interference, and (2)) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause

undesired operation of the device. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by weBoost could void the authority to operate this equipment.
