ME500-X
Trackunit ME500-X, Technical Manual v.1.1, January
2016 Page 7
The ME500-X unit is not designed to be worn on a person’s body.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals generated by the
ME500-X unit.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of
six (6”) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. The following precautions apply:
• The ME500-X unit is not intended for handheld use or to be worn on the body.
• It is recommended that a minimum separation of ten (8”) inches (20 cm) is to be
maintained between the ME500-X unit and any persons’ body at all times.
• Do not carry the ME500-X on your person.
Other Medical Devices
If any other personal medical devices are used in the vicinity of a ME500-X unit, consult
the manufacturers of the medical devices to determine if they are adequately shielded
from external RF energy. Physicians may be able to assist in obtaining this information.
The ME500-X unit cannot be turned off after installation, so any vehicle, moving
machinery, construction machinery installed with the ME500-X etc. must not operate near
health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas prohibit the use of
wireless phones or two-way radios. Hospitals and health care facilities may be using
equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding the vehicle.
Also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to the vehicle.
Posted Facilities
The ME500-X unit cannot be turned off after installation, so any vehicle, moving
machinery, construction machinery installed with the ME500-X etc. must not enter any
facility where posted notices prohibit the use of wireless phones or two-way radios.
Aircrafts
FCC and FAA regulations prohibit using wireless phones while in the air. Do not carry the
ME500-X unit aboard an aircraft as it cannot be turned off.
The ME500-X unit cannot be turned off after installation, so any vehicle, moving
machinery, construction machinery installed with the ME500-X etc. must not enter a
“blasting area” or in areas posted “turn off two way radio” to avoid interfering with blasting
operations. Obey all signs and instructions.
