(Please see section 4.3.2 “Placement of Pedestals”)
2.2 Safety Notices
The L-SP2 has been tested to be in conformity with the EN standard 60950-1: “Information
Technology Equipment Safety”
It is the responsibility of the CIT (Certified Integrators by TAGSYS) to install the L-SP2 as
described in TAGSYS Product Manuals or TAGSYS Documentation.
Modification of any TAGSYS Library System is prohibited without the written consent of TAGSYS.
Unauthorized modifications may void the conformity of the equipment to safety specifications and
will void the TAGSYS warranty.
2.3 Regulatory Notices
An RFID system typically composed of an RF emission device such as the L-SP2 connected
to an antenna is subject to national regulations that may differ by country.
One important item to consider is the maximum permissible magnetic field intensity at a distance of
10 meters from the antenna that must not exceed 42 dBµA/m in Europe and 38 dBµA/m in US.
The L-SP2 meets these limits.
Librarian should set up measurements of monitoring at the doors to avoid prolonged stay
between them.
For servicing operations it is recommended to deactivate the EAS system.
