Quick Guide
1. Performasignaltestbyusingthetestbuttononthemodem.
2. Ifthesignalstrengthisbelow12,anexternalantennamustbeinstalled.
3. Theexternalantennamustbeplacedinapositionthatimprovesthesignal
reception.Movetheantennaarounduntiltheoptimalpositionislocated.
Performseveralsignaltestswhilefindingthebestposition.
4. UseNetmonitororequivalenttoolstohelpfindthebestpositionforthe
externalantenna,ifnecessary.
5. Beforeleavingtheinstallation,testthesignalstrengthbysendinganSMS.
MakesureallcabinetsanddoorsareclosedbeforesendingtheSMS.
Hints
• Alwaysinstallanexternalantennawheninstallinginametalcabinet.The
antennamustbeplacedoutsidethecabinet.
• UsedualbandGSMantennasforoptimalperformance.
• Beawarethatfiredoors,concreteandmetalplatesdisturbandattenuatethe
GSMsignals.
• Specialdirectionalantennascanbeorderedforareaswithverypoorsignal
conditions(contactKamstrupfordetails).
SMS
When placing the meter
in a metal cabinet, make
sure to place the antenna
outside the cabinet.
Make sure to close all
doors and cabinets
before sending the SMS.
Fire door
When placing the meter
below the ground (e.g. in
a basement), make sure
to place the antenna
