Improving Aerial Placement - Important Information
If the tool advises you to improve the aerial placement or type, please do the following:
- Remove power from the Pelican (at least 5 mins). This forces the Pelican to send updated signal quality info after aerial upgrade. This should be done even if you are using the same aerial and not disconnecting it from the Pelican.
- Install the new aerial / new position while the Pelican is turned off.
- Connect the Pelican to the 5V power supply. Wait 3 minutes and then check the status of the Pelican using the commissioning tool.
General Commissioning Information
Any information given to the installer by this tool is advisory only.
Latency in the wider GPRS network may result in a "No connection seen" message on this tool. This is unlikely to be as a result of a poor signal quality if a solid green light is displayed on the Pelican, but is more likely to be caused by a delay in data being sent from the APN to eMIG. You are not advised to upgrade the aerial unless you have confirmation of a poor signal strength.
*If the Pelican green "online" light is flashing, this indicates that the Pelican is scanning for a network connection and currently has no data connection. This tool will not provide any useful information if this is the case.
If the Pelican "online" light continues to flash for many minutes without becoming solid, then you should consider improving the aerial position, as the unit has been unable to lock on to any network.
