5. Instruccions de funcionament

Once installed, the directional nature of the Yagi antenna requires careful aiming for optimal signal reception. Use the following guidelines:

1. Identify Cell Tower Location: Use online resources or mobile apps to locate the nearest cellular tower for your service provider.
2. Aim the Antenna: Point the narrow end of the Yagi antenna directly towards the identified cell tower. Make small adjustments (a few degrees at a time) horizontally and vertically.
3. Monitor Signal Strength: While adjusting, monitor your device's signal strength indicator. Look for the highest and most stable signal. Some devices may show signal strength in dBm (decibel-milliwatts), where a higher negative number (e.g., -70 dBm is better than -90 dBm) indicates a stronger signal.
4. Secure Antenna: Once the optimal position is found, securely tighten all mounting hardware to prevent the antenna from shifting.

6. Manteniment

• Inspecció periòdica: Periodically check the antenna and mounting hardware for any signs of wear, corrosion, or loose connections, especially after severe weather.
• Neteja: Keep the antenna surface clean from dirt, dust, and debris to ensure optimal performance. Use a soft, damp drap per netejar. Eviteu productes de neteja abrasius.
• Integritat del cable: Ensure the coaxial cable is not kinked, pinched, or damaged. Damaged cables can lead to signal loss.

7. Solució De Problemes

Si teniu problemes amb l'antena, tingueu en compte el següent:

• Sense senyal o senyal feble:
  • Re-aim the antenna. Even small adjustments can significantly impact signal strength.
  • Verify all cable connections are secure and correctly attached.
  • Check for obstructions (trees, buildings) between the antenna and the cell tower.
  • Ensure the correct adapter (SMA-Male or TS-9) is being used for your device.
• Connexió intermitent:
  • Comproveu si hi ha connexions soltes tant a l'antena com al dispositiu.
  • Inspeccioneu el cable per si hi ha danys.
  • Ensure the antenna is securely mounted and not moving due to wind.
