Upon initial power up, a solid GREEN LED should appear indicating normal conditions. If
the increased signal coverage is acceptable, however, no additional adjustments are
needed. See LED Indicator section for more information.
Should you desire to improve coverage, you may:
• Relocate the Signal Antenna in order to capture a better signal – higher is usually
better.
• Increase the distance between the Base Unit Antenna and the Signal Antenna.
• Purchase an upgrade antenna available at www.zBoost.com
installing the Base Unit and Indoor Antenna
The Base Unit can also be easily mounted on a wall using the included mounting bracket
there is clearance for the Base Unit antenna extension.
The Indoor Signal Antenna connects to the F-TNC adaptor.Then, using the 15’ RG-6 coax,
connect the F-TNC adaptor to the Base Unit. It should be mounted on a wall facing the
direction where increased coverage is desired.
1.) Unplug the Base Unit power cord.
2.) Turn on your cell phone and check the signal meter.
3.) Plug the power cord into the Base Unit.
4.) Hold your cell phone about 5 feet from the Base Unit and then turn it on. Wait up to
minute for the cell phone to register the signal coming from the Base Unit.
5.) If the signal meter shows an improvement, your zBoost unit is working properly.
Improving Your Coverage Area
With everything connected and the Base Unit plugged in, you should walk throughout the
room and see that you are able to reliably place calls.
Remember, coverage varies based on outdoor signal level, building construction, and
general installation care. Coverage in adjoining rooms (next to, above, or below) will be
Should you desire to improve coverage, you may:
1.) Move the Base Unit and/or adjust the angle of the Base Unit antenna.
2.) Move the Signal Antenna to a higher location in your attic or outside.
3). Purchase a Signal Antenna Upgrade at www.zBoost.com
Note: Using a signal meter or an antenna application on a smart phone is a more
accurate way to measure a stronger signal than the bars on a phone.
INSTALLING YOUR zBOOST
®
SIGNAL BOOSTER
Installing the Signal Antennas
Choosing the best location for installation of the Signal Antennas provides the best
performance and the largest area of improved signal. Determine the location which
provides the strongest signal using the signal strength indicator on your cell phone.
Find the location which provides the most bars of signal strength and locate the Signal
Antenna at that location. This location will be typically found on the roof.
Warning: Avoid placing antenna near metal such as wiring, A/C ducts, truss plates, etc. When
attaching the cable to the antenna, run the cable straight down from the antenna. Avoid
draping the coax near the antenna.
When you have determined the location of the strongest signal, install the antennas to
a mast or pole. Loosely tighten the antennas to the mast to allow the antennas to be
reoriented for strongest signal.
Antenna Aiming
the antenna(s) in the direction of the best signal for your wireless service provider. You
may wish to use a YX699 RF signal meter to help during this process. For more
information see the manual.
Running the Coaxial Cable to the Base Unit
Coaxial cable is not provided with the YX645. After installing the Signal Antennas and
connecting them, run coax cable to the location in the home where you plan to install
the Base Unit. The recommended maximum cable length run for RG-6 is 60' and 120' for
RG-11. It is highly recommended that you refrain from securing your cable, drilling any
holes, etc. until you complete and test the installation of the Base Unit.
Caution: Before drilling any holes into a wall to run your cable, make sure you know where
existing electrical wiring is located. Drilling into live electrical wiring could cause an electrical
shock and sever the wire.
Hardware Kit
Solid GREEN Normal condition at power up.
Slowly Alternating RED and GREEN
zBoost® is working, but at reduced
performance and coverage due to “non-
ideal” setup.
Solution: Increase the distance
betweenSignal Antenna and Base Unit
to achieve maximum performance and
coverage.
Fast Flashing RED
Solution: Increase space between base
unit and antenna.
Solid RED
System is receiving signals from either
the mobile device or the base station
transceiver which are too strong for
proper operation.
Solutions: Move away from
receiving antenna with your cell phone.
Move antenna away from other
devices..
Fast Alternating RED and GREEN

Solution: Unplug and start over.
At Initial Power Up Only
Solid GREEN Normal condition.
Solid RED
System is receiving signals from either
the mobile device or the base station
transceiver which are too strong for
proper operation.
Solution: Please unplug your system.
Re-orient your Signal Antenna and/or
Base Unit to reduce the excessive signal
source. Plug your system back in. If
still solid red, call customer support
