YX500-PCS Installation Guide

Installing the Base

Unit

For the widest possible signal reception, it recommended that you install the

YX500-PCS Base Unit near the middle of a room or on an interior wall. This is

because the Base Unit uses an omni-directional antenna, which like a lantern

delivers the signal in a circular pattern around the antenna. If you decide to

install the Base Unit on or near an outside wall, we recommend purchasing the

YX024-PCS Directional Base Unit Antenna (see page 2). This antenna will

focus the entire signal in towards the rooms.

The Base Unit can either be directly mounted on a wall or set on a furniture

piece (e.g., a bookshelf, desk, filing cabinet, end table etc.). The Base Unit

performs best when located at least 4 feet above the floor or at about the

height of the cell phone when it is typically in use.

For the best results, avoid placing the Base Unit antenna within 2 feet of other

wires or metal objects.

Placing the Base Unit on a Furniture Piece

The Base Unit is designed so that it easily sits on top of a furniture piece using

the following steps.

1) Attach the coaxial cable, which should already be attached to the Signal

Antenna, to the Base Unit.

2) Attach the antenna to the Base Unit and position it so that it is at a 90

degrees angle to the Base Unit.
