Interference Statement for FCC
“Harmful interference” is defined by the FCC as follows: Any emission, radiation or induction that
endangers the functioning of a radio navigation service or of other safety services or seriously degrades,
obstructs, or repeatedly interrupts a radio communications service operating in accordance with FCC
rules.
These devices comply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation of the devices is subject to these two
conditions: (1) the devices may not cause harmful interference, and (2) the devices must accept any
interference that may cause unwanted operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to supply reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy. If the equipment is not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, the
equipment may cause harmful interference to radio communications. There is no guarantee, however,
that such interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception (which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on), the user is encouraged to take one of these measures to try to correct the interference:
•Move this device.
• Increase the separation between the device and the receiver.
• Connect the device to an outlet on a circuit different from that of other electronics.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio technician for help.
The module must be installed and used in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions as
described in the user documentation that comes with the product. Any other installation or use will
violate FCC Part 15 regulations. Modifications not expressly approved by Hill-Rom could void your
authority to operate the equipment.
The module must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

RF Radiation Hazard Warning
This device complies with RSS-247 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to these two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference, which include interference that may cause unwanted operation of
this device.
The term "IC" before the equipment certification number only signifies that the Industry Canada
technical specifications were met.
To prevent radio interference to the licensed service, this device is intended to be operated indoors and
away from windows to provide maximum shielding. Equipment (or its transmit antenna) that is installed
outdoors is subject to licensing.
Caution—Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation.
The installer of this radio equipment must make sure the antenna is located or pointed such that it does
not emit an RF field in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population; consult Safety Code 6,
