# Point the Antenna

The Mesh Node LCI user interface includes a backhaul antenna pointing feature on its Antenna page to assist installers.

**To point the antenna:**

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Click the **ANTENNA** link at the top of the Mesh Node’s LCI page.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Loosen the Mesh Node’s CPE (backhaul) antenna mounting bolts and slowly adjust its direction towards the Gateway Node’s backhaul antenna to maximize the “Antenna 0” RSRP readings between the Gateway AP and the GM01.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
When a maximum value is obtained, tighten the antenna’s mounting bracket bolts.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Verify the remainder of the parameters on the Antenna page are consistent with the frequency plan for your access and backhaul channels.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Navigate back to the LCI Status Page and verify that the:

* Backhaul Link indicates **Connected**
* Mesh Tunnel indicates **Active**
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}
Return to the **Subscribers** page on the Onyx Portal and confirm that the status of the IMSI has changed to **Connected**.

{% hint style="info" %}
**NOTE:** Once energized the Mesh Node will undergo an automated registration with the Onyx Edge through the Gateway Node. You will not be able to register it under this section until its associated SIM card has checked in with the Onyx Edge on the Subscribers page. It may take up to 10 minutes or more for the device to check in with the Onyx Portal.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.gxc.io/hw/lte/4g-mesh-nodes/gm01/gm01-mesh-node-installation-guide/point-the-antenna.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
