RF Energy Exposure Compliance, Awareness and
Control Information and Operational Instructions
ATTENTION!
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Futurecom Systems Group,
ULC. could void the User’s authority to operate the equipment. To satisfy FCC/IC
RF exposure requirements for mobile transmitting devices, the minimum
separation distances specified in Table 1 should be maintained. To ensure
compliance, operations at closer than this distance are not allowed.
ATTENTION!
Futurecom requires the P25 VRX1000 operator to ensure FCC Requirements for
Radio Frequency Exposure are met. The minimum distance between all possible
personnel and the body of the VRX1000 equipped vehicle is specified in the “RF
Safety” booklet. Failure to observe the Maximum Permissible Exposure (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). It
is the responsibility of the repeater operator to ensure MPE limits are observed at
all times during repeater transmissions. The repeater operator must ensure at all
times that no person comes within MPE distance from the vehicle body.
USA Users: Do not use the VRX1000 in the frequency band 406.0 – 406.1MHz. This
frequency band is reserved for distress beacons.
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 limits. This radio device is NOT authorized for general
population, consumer, or any other use.
It is the responsibility of the VRX1000 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’s/IC’s RF energy exposure limits for the general
population.
The minimum lateral distance between all possible personnel and the body of the
VRX1000 equipped vehicle must be as specified in Table 1.
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).
