UP ARROW - Use this arrow to scroll up when the list is greater than 4.
REFRESH DISPLAY- Use this to update info on the screen and remove or add
items that are not current.
SORT BY RSRP - This icon lists RSRP so that the strongest RSRP values appear
at the top (for instance, -55 dBm is stronger than -93 dBm)
Before You Start - Completely charge up your Squid-4G using the supplied AC/DC transformer. Note the mini-USB
port for later use with a PC. Be sure to also securely connect all antennas to the Squid-4G for maximum sensitivity.
Starting Up - Power up Squid-4G by pressing the pushbutton trackball or center keypad black button (model depen-
dent) on the front of the unit. You should notice a horizontal startup bar for approximately 20 seconds. After startup,
Squid-4G scans all nearby cellular networks followed by the acquisition of base station names and nally GPS satel-
lite lock. Time scan usually takes between 1 to 2 minutes total for all networks.
Connecting Antenna - Be sure to connect all antennas before making scanning for any carriers. The antenna inputs
are hardwired to their respective bands. Looking at thr rear of the unit:
Top left SMA connection is for CDMA carriers like Verizon
Right SMA connection is for UMTS/GSM carriers like AT&T and T-Mobile
Bottom left connection is only for GPS connection (active GPS antenna only).
Magnetic Hook - Squid-4G contains a fold-out hook that easily slips onto a utlity belt or low hanging wire. The embed-
ded magnet also allows Squid-4G to be mounted temporarily to metal surfaces.

RSRP values are
listed as they are
scanned. Use the
RE-LIST SORT BY
RSSI function to
place the stron-
gest base sta-
tions at the top.
FRQ MHz lists the
neareast wireless
carrier frequencies
detected. Not all
bands are supported
so ask your BVS
sales agent.
4G LTE base stations are
listed according to their wire-
less carriers. Not all carriers
are supported. Some carri-
ers sharing bandwidth with
other carriers will not be
displayed. Consult the FCC’s
commercial 4G allocation for
your area for details.
RSRP DIRECTION FINDING - This screen is most useful for antenna alignment when the operator
may be out of arm’s reach to the unit while holding or repositioning an antenna. Notice the
PEAK HOLD at the end of the horizontal dBm. That will remain until a higher dBm is detected.
PRODUCT INFORMATION - This screen displays which antenna (left or right) is receiving which
wireless standard.
GPS - Displays navigation information including latitude, longitude, UTC and x. The GPS
antenna must be connected to the GPS connector on the top of the unit in order to achieve GPS
lock. If your unit does not contain a Sprint module, you must use an active antenna to achieve
GPS lock.
BATTERY - This screen displays battery power left (percentage) of the Squid’s internal batteries.
Typical runtime is approximately 8 hours.
POWER OFF - Select this icon to turn off the Squid.
OPTIONAL DIRECTION FINDING ANTENNA - This option includes a DF antenna, bracket and antenna cable. Note
the assembly in the photo. Attach antenna before powering up the Squid-PRO. Recommended procedure for DF
antenna use is to begin by rst attaching omni-directional antenna(s) to acquire local base stations. After all lo-
cal carriers have been detected, swap out omni for direction nding antenna. Be sure to choose the appropriate
antenna connection (left connector for AT&T or T-Mobile or right connector for Verizon).
