Warning. Lethal Voltages!
Installation involves the connection of lethal voltages. The instructions detailed in this
handbook must be carried out only by suitably qualified personnel.
Warning. Heavy Item!
The 3000DV2 series radios weigh in excess of 25 kg; care must be taken when lifting
and handling these units. At least two people must be used to lift the equipment.
Warning. Antenna Radiation!
Antennas used with 3000DV2 transmitters and transceivers must be installed such
that the resultant radiated field strength is below 10 watt per square metre in areas
normally accessible to personnel.
Warning. Beryllium/Beryllia!
The equipment covered by this handbook contains components incorporating the
highly toxic material Beryllium and/or its oxide Beryllia. No instructions within this user
guide require the removal of the radio's top or bottom covers so users are not exposed
