INFORMATION FOR THE USER
USA FCC Radio Frequency Exposure
The FCC with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC certified equipment. The wireless adapter meets the Human Exposure
requirements found in FCC Part 2, 15C, 15E along with guidance from KDB 447498, KDB 248227, KDB 616217 and
KDB 987594. Proper operation of this radio according to the instructions found in this manual will result in exposure
substantially below the FCC's limits.
The following safety precautions should be observed:
- Do not touch or move antenna while the unit is transmitting or receiving.
- Do not hold any component containing the radio such that the antenna is very close or touching any exposed
parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
- Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is connected; this behavior may
cause damage to the radio.
- Use in specific environments:
Explosive Device Proximity Warning
Warning: Do not operate a portable transmitter (including this wireless adapter) near unshielded blasting caps
or in an explosive environment unless the transmitter has been modified to be qualified for such use
Warning: The wireless adapter is not designed for use with high-gain directional antennas.
Use On Aircraft Caution
Caution: Regulations of commercial airline operators may prohibit airborne operation of certain electronic
devices equipped with radio frequency devices (wireless adapters) because their signals could interfere with
critical aircraft instruments.
Caution: This device is prohibited against use for the control of or communications with unmanned aircraft
systems, including drones
Safety Approval Considerations
- The use of wireless adapters in hazardous locations is limited by the constraints posed by the
safety directors of such environments.
- The use of wireless adapters on airplanes is governed by the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA).
- The use of wireless adapters in hospitals is restricted to the limits set forth by each hospital.
This device has been safety approved as a component and is for use only in complete equipment where the
acceptability of the combination is determined by the appropriate safety agencies. When installed, consideration
must be given to the following:
