STEP 3 – Determine the Signal Strength and Select a Location 
IMPORTANT - Do Not mount this device outdoors.  
When choosing a suitable mounting location, understand that signal strength is very important for proper 
operation.  For most installations using the supplied antenna, mounting the unit as high as practical, and 
avoiding large metal components provides adequate signal strength for proper operation.  
You will use the iGSM Communications Module to determine signal strength in order to find a suitable 
mounting location.  
Note: If the SIM is already activated, the RSSI signal strength indicators will indicate signal 
strength.  
If the SIM has not been activated, the firmware in the communications module enables it to 
communicate with the cellular network towers (without the SIM being activated) so that 
signal strength measurements can be determined.  In this case, you can display the signal 
strength by simultaneously pressing the MODE and TAMPER switches.  
1.  For this procedure you will need a fully charged 12V battery. 
2.  Attach the Antenna (see illustration on page 5).   
3.  Temporarily wire the battery's negative [–] terminal to TB1–4 on the iGSM communications module, 
then wire the battery's plus [+] terminal to TB1–2 on the communications module.  Wait about one 
minute for the module to initialize. 
4.  Position the assembly near a suitable mounting position and observe 
the RSSI display.   
5.  Look for a mounting position that yields at least 3 bars lit solid.  Four 
or five bars are better. 
6.  Verify the signal strength remains steady for a few minutes, then mark that mounting position.  
Disconnect the battery. 
 
STEP 4 – Mount and Wire 
 
  For UL compliant installations, refer to the topic on UL Compliance in this manual. 
  For Dry/Indoor use only. 
  Unless otherwise specified, use 18AWG or larger wire. 
  External cabinet wiring may be routed in conduit if desired. 
 
This communicator comes partially assembled with all the components mounted except the PowerBoost1 
and the Antenna.  To protect certain components on the PowerBoost1, it is shipped un-mounted but fully 
wired.  
1.  Remove knockouts from cabinet to accommodate the power input wires, and wiring to the control 
panel.  Then mount the cabinet securely to the wall using 4 screws or bolts.  Use mounting screws or 
bolts that are suitable for the material being anchored to. 
2.  Ensure the cabinet door lock is installed. 
3.  Carefully remove the packaging material that surrounds the PowerBoost1. 
4.  Mount the PowerBoost1 on the three unused standoffs.  Use the plastic screw (prevents shorting) 
to secure the upper right corner of the PowerBoost1 and the two metal screws and lock washers to 
fasten the left side of the circuit board.  Ensure the two lock washers are between the circuit board 
and the head of the two metal screws.
