10.2 Determining the mounting location for unit 
that will be managed by the Nokia Altiplano 
FastMile Controller
If the Nokia Altiplano FastMile Controller will be used through NETCONF to remotely 
manage the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver, use the following procedure to use the 
Nokia Wireless app, which works in conjunction with the Nokia Altiplano FastMile 
Controller and the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver, to help you determine the mounting 
location for the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver.
The Nokia Wireless app works in conjunction with the Nokia Altiplano FastMile 
Controller to find an LTE base station and to set up the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver. 
The Nokia Wireless app works in conjunction with the signal strength measurement 
capability of the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver to find a place to mount the Nokia 
FastMile 4G Receiver.
You will need the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver and a portable battery-powered PoE 
injector for this procedure. You might need to provide an Ethernet cable to connect 
to the Compact multi-band model of the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver (the Compact 
mono-band and ABA models have a pre-attached Ethernet cable). An appropriate 
SIM card must be installed in the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver as described in 
chapter 9.
The Nokia Wireless app must be installed on a mobile phone as indicated in section 
8.2 before you can use the app to help you determine the mounting location for the 
Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver. As well, you will need the sheet of paper provided with 
the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver that has the QR code for the Nokia FastMile 4G 
Receiver.You will need to know the username, password and the FastMile Controller 
URL in order to login to the Controller from the Nokia Wireless app. Also you will have 
to know the Subscription ID in order to register the receiver to the Nokia Altiplano 
FastMile Controller. As well, you will need to allow access to the mobile phone’s 
location as part of the procedure. You will also need to know the username and 
password to log in to the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver.
The following need to be considered before you can start to determine the mounting 
location of a Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver that will be managed by the Nokia Altiplano 
FastMile Controller:
• Follow the steps with exact order described in the procedure
• The installation procedure below will be considered to be successful by the Nokia 
Altiplano FastMile Controller when a successful call home is established between 
the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver and the Nokia Altiplano FastMile Controller. In 
that case, any second attempt of the installation will not be allowed by the Nokia 
Altiplano FastMile Controller. In case there is a need for a second installation, 
action on the Nokia Altiplano FastMile Controller is needed to unregister the 
subscription ID and perform the installation again.
• You need to finish the Nokia FastMile 4G Receiver installation within 30 minutes 
from the time the Nokia Wireless app is connected to the Nokia Altiplano FastMile
