Safety information

2.1

FCC guidelines

This equipment is for use by developers for evaluation purposes only and must not be incorporated into

any other device or system. This device may not be sold to the general public. Integrators will be

responsible for reevaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC

authorization.

FCC approval of this device only covers the original configuration of this device as supplied. Any

modifications to this product, including changes shown in this manual, may violate the rules of the Federal

Communications Commission and Industry Canada and make operation of the product unlawful.

2.1.1

Labeling

FCC labels are physically located on the back of the board.

2.1.2

Operating conditions

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

•

This device may not cause harmful interference.

•

This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired

operation.

2.1.3

Exposure limits

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.

The antenna(s) used for this equipment must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 8

inches (20 cm) from all persons.

2.1.4

Antenna restrictions

An intentional radiator is designed to ensure that no antenna other than that furnished by the responsible

party is used with the device. The use of a permanently attached antenna or of an antenna that uses a unique

coupling to the intentional radiator is considered sufficient to comply with the provisions of this Section.

The manufacturer may design the unit so that a broken antenna can be replaced by the user, but the use of

a standard antenna jack or electrical connector is prohibited. This requirement does not apply to carrier

current devices or to devices operated under the provisions of Sections 15.211, 15.213, 15.217, 15.219, or

15.221 of the IEEE Std. 802.15.4. This requirement does not apply to intentional radiators that must be

professionally installed, such as perimeter protection systems and some field disturbance sensors, or to

other intentional radiators which, in accordance with Section 15.31(d), must be measured at the installation

site. However, the installer is responsible for ensuring that the proper antenna is employed so that the limits

in this Part are not exceeded.
