DVRS-Product Safety and RF Exposure Booklet 4
ATTENTION!
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Futurecom Systems Group, ULC
could void the User’s authority to operate the equipment.
USA Users: Do not use the DVRS in the frequency band 406.0 – 406.1MHz.
This frequency band is reserved for distress beacons.
RF EXPOSURE
ATTENTION!
This radio is intended for use in occupational / controlled conditions, where users
have full knowledge of their exposure and can exercise control over their exposure
to meet FCC /ISED limits. This radio device is NOT authorized for general population,
consumer, or any other use.
RADIO OPERATOR
It is the responsibility of the Repeater Operator to ensure that Maximum Permissible
Exposure (MPE) limits are observed at all times during repeater transmissions. If this
vehicular repeater is used in combination with a separate Mobile radio transmitter,
the Repeater operator must ensure at all times that no person comes within the MPE
distance from the vehicle body to ensure compliance with the FCC/ISED RF energy
exposure limits for the general population.
The minimum lateral distance between all possible personnel and the body of the DVRS
equipped vehicle must be as specified in Table 1 (Stand-alone DVR) and Table 2 (DVR
interfaced to a Mobile Radio i.e. DVRS).
Failure to observe the MPE distance exclusion area around the antenna may expose persons
within this area to RF energy above the FCC exposure limit for bystanders (general
population).
Stand Alone DVR (20W)
Recommended Lateral Distance from Antenna

Table 1 Recommended Lateral Distance - Stand Alone DVR
NOTE:
50% Tx duty cycle is defined as Push To Talk (PTT), 50% Talk - 50% Listen.
100% Tx duty cycle is defined as Push To Talk (PTT), 100% Talk.
