Recommended Separation Distances
Recommended Separation Distance Between Portable and Mobile
RF Communications Equipment and the Intraoral Camera System
The Kodak 1500 intraoral camera is intended for use in an electromagnetic
environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the
user of the intraoral camera can help prevent electromagnetic interference by
maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communication
equipment (transmitters) and the Kodak 1500 intraoral camera as recommended
below, according to the maximum output of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the
recommended separation distance in meters (m) can be estimated using the
equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum
output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter
manufacturer.
Note 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency
range applies.
Note 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic
propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects, and
people.
