Strong outdoor signal. No action required as the repeater will self optimize.
Indoor and outdoor antennas are too close to each other. Separate them more.

External signal is too strong and band has shut down. Add manual attenuation. 4x SD400 antennas x 4 cable SD400 antenna
Band has automaticlly turned off due to very high downlink (DL) power.

Long press to reboot:This is similiar to plugging out and in mains power.


Short press to reset: This just rebalances the levels.

AGC for UL and DL when the operator’s signal is strong.
When outdoor signal is very strong, gain is reduced for an extended time.
Add extra attenuation to high or low bands.

1-Use high and low group attenuator to control either the low bands 700/800/900
and/or the high bands, 1800/2100/2600.
Use these group attenuators to first control very strong signal. Then, make fine
adjustments with the individual attenuators.

2-After using group attenuators, use these individaul attenuators to do fine adjustments per band. This manual is for the following models

Step-by-step installation instructions Add lineamps for more coverage.


For larger buildings, lineamps and splitters can be installed after the repeater. This allows extending the signal a
1-Survey further 100m into the building. See cable length rules below.
Before starting the installation, conduct call and data speed tests outside the building to understand the available
signal in your area. For the required mobile operators note:
• Call quality. (do you experience dropped voice calls?)
• Data speeds up and down.
• Signal strength (signal bars or dBm)
• Band (only available on android phones)
• Service: H+/4G/5G

Whatever signal is available outside your property, a repeater will distribute inside the property.
For android phones, the app, Network Cell Info Lite is recommended.

2- Outdoor antenna placement.


On the roof, point the outdoor antenna towards the nearest cell tower. This nearest, most
suitable cell tower can be either seen by eye or located using on-line tower maps.

When the best direction is found, loosely fasten the antenna to a pole.

The Yagi should be clear of all nearby obstructions, like metal railings or other roof
structure.

3- Loose installation

Loosely drop the 15m SD400 cable from the outdoor antenna to a location inside the building where call tests can be conducted.
Attach this cable to the repeater and power on the repeater. On the LCD, pay attention to the signal bars for each frequency. 4,5 or
6 signal bars signifies a good signal at that frequency.
Cable Assembly
Next, attach one of the inside antennas to the repeater and point it into the room.
Self assembly of cables. Pay careful attention to the N-connectors.

4- Call and data tests

Do call and data tests for each mobile operator. The tests should be comparable to those tests conducted outside the property.

Once satisfied with the results, fasten the outdoor antenna and install the cables permanently.

5- StellaControl - Remote monitoring

Connect the iRepeater to a live ethernet conection. Log onto your stellacontrol account.
