UHF Radios
Regulations and Safety. The receiver may be fitted
with an internal radio as an option. It can also be
connected to an external UHF radio.
Regulations regarding the use of Ultra High Frequen-
cy (UHF) radio-modems vary greatly from country to
country. In some countries, the UHF kit may be used
without obtaining an end-user license. Other coun-
tries require end-user licensing. For licensing infor-
mation, consult your local Spectra Precision dealer.
Before operating the receiver with the UHF kit, deter-
mine if authorization or a license to operate the UHF
kit is required in your country. It is the end-user’s re-
sponsibility to obtain an operator’s permit or license
for the location or country of use.
Exposure to RF energy is an important safety consid-
eration. The FCC has adopted a safety standard for
human exposure to radio-frequency electromagnetic
energy.
Proper use of this radio modem results in exposure
below government limits. The following precautions
are recommended:
• DO NOT operate the transmitter when someone
is within 20 cm (7.8 inches) of the antenna.
• DO NOT collocate (place within 20 cm) the ra-
dio antenna with any other transmitting device.
• DO NOT operate the transmitter unless all RF
connectors are secure and any open connectors
are properly terminated.
• DO NOT operate the equipment near electric
blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere.
• All equipment must be properly grounded ac-
cording to Spectra Precision installation in-
structions for safe operation.
• All equipment should be serviced only by a qual-
ified technician.
