l
DO NOT operate the transmitter when someone is within 20 cm (7.8 inches) of the antenna.
The maximum gain of the antenna must not exceed 8 dBi.
Note – 2.4 GHz radios are available only for Japan.
For Bluetooth radio
The radiated output power of the internal Bluetooth wireless radio and the Wi-Fi radio included in
some Trimble receivers is far below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the
wireless radio(s) shall be used in such a manner that the Trimble receiver is 20 cm or further from the
human body. The internal wireless radio(s) operate within guidelines found in radio frequency safety
standards and recommendations, which reflect the consensus of the scientific community. Trimble
therefore believes that the internal wireless radio(s) are safe for use by consumers. The level of
energy emitted is far less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices such as
mobile phones. However, the use of wireless radios may be restricted in some situations or
environments, such as on aircraft. If you are unsure of restrictions, you are encouraged to ask for
authorization before turning on the wireless radio.
For GSM/GPRS radio
Safety. Exposure to RF energy is an important safety consideration. The FCC has adopted a safety
standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated
equipment as a result of its actions in General Docket 79-144 on March 13, 1986.
Proper use of this radio modem results in exposure below government limits. The following
precautions are recommended:
l
DO NOT operate the transmitter when someone is within 28 cm (11 inches) of the antenna.
l
All equipment should be serviced only by a qualified technician.
Installing antennas
CAUTION – For your own safety, and in terms of the RF exposure requirements of the FCC, always observe these
precautions:
– Always maintain a minimum separation distance of 20 cm (7.9 inches) between yourself and the radiating
antenna.
– Do not co-locate the antenna with any other transmitting device.
WARNING – The GNSS antenna and its cabling should be installed in accordance with all national and local
electrical codes, regulations, and practices. The antenna and cabling should be installed where they will not
become energized as a result of falling nearby power lines, nor be mounted where they are subjected to over-
voltage transients, particularly lightning. Such installations require additional protective means that are detailed
in national and local electrical codes.
