3 Safety Precautions To prevent severe injury and loss of life/property, read this section carefully before using the unit to ensure proper and safe operation of your unit. WARNING: • Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. • To prevent injury, this apparatus must be securely attached to the wall/ceiling in accordance with the installation instructions. • All work related to the installation of this product should be made by qualified service personnel or system installers. • The installation shall be carried out in accordance with all applicable installation rules. • The connections should comply with local electrical code. CAUTION: Compliance with FCC requirement 15.407(c) Data transmission in always initiated by software, which is the passed down through the MAC, through the digital and analog baseband, and finally to the RF chip. Several special packets are initiated by the MAC. These are the only ways the digital baseband portion will turn on the RF transmitter, which it then turns off at the end of the packet. Therefore, the transmitter will be on only while one of the aforementioned packets is being transmitted. In other words, this device automatically discontinue transmission in case of either absence of information to transmit or operational failure. • AC adaptor with ferrite core must be used for RF interference suppression. Frequency Tolerance: ±20 ppm This device is restricted for indoor use. This device and it's antennas(s) must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures. This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator & your body.

11 Notes on radio waves • This product is certified to radio equipment technical standards based on Radio Act (2.4 GHz ISM band low-power data communication system and 5 GHz band low-power data communication system). Therefore, no license of a radio station is necessary for use of this product. • Since this product is certified to the technical standards, the following actions are punishable by law. • Taking apart or modifying this product. (Alteration of frequency and antenna is prohibited.) • Removing the certification label from the bottom of this product. • In the use frequency band of 2.4 GHz band (IEEE802.11 b/g/n), in addition to industrial/scientific/medical equipments including microwave ovens, private branch radio stations (license required) for mobile object identification that are used in manufacturing lines at factories, specified low-power radio stations (no license required) and amateur radio stations (license required) are being operated. • Before using this product, make sure that any of private branch radio station for mobile object identification, specified low-power radio station and amateur radio station is not being operated. • If harmful radio wave interference against a private branch radio station for mobile object identification caused by this product occur, immediately change the use frequency of this product and eliminate the radio wave interference. • When operating this product in 2.4 GHz band, it is recommended to select CH1, CH6 or CH11 for the channel setting to reduce interference and to improve frequency utilization efficiency. • If you need any assistance to deal with a trouble such as harmful radio wave interference against a private branch radio station for mobile object identification or a specified low-power radio station caused by this product, contact your dealer from whom you purchased this product. Use frequency band: 2.4 GHz Modulation system: DS-SS/OFDM Estimated interference distance: Less than 40 m Frequency change availability: It is possible to avoid band for private branch radio station for mobile object identification and specified low-power radio station while using the entire band. The following marks indicating these are labeled on the product.
12 Security-related notice on use of wireless LAN products • In a wireless LAN, information is transmitted/received between a PC and this product using radio wave instead of a LAN cable. Therefore, it has an advantage that the LAN connection is always available in a range which radio waves reach. On the other hand, since radio waves get over obstacles (wall, etc.) and reach any place within a certain range, the following problems can occur if settings relating to security are not configured. ■ Content of communication can be peeped • There is a possibility that a third person with malicious intention may intentionally pick up radio waves and monitor content of communication including personal information such as ID, password, credit card number and content of E-mails. ■ Illegal intrusion • There is a possibility that the following may be brought by illegal intrusion. A third person with malicious intention may invade and access a personal or a corporate network to steal personal information or classified information (information leakage). • Communicate by impersonating a specific person and spread illegal information (Spoofing) • Edit monitored content of communication and transmit (Alteration) • Spread computer virus and destroy data or a system (Attack) Since a wireless LAN card and this product originally have security countermeasures against these problems, the possibility of occurrence of these problems may be reduced if wireless LAN products are used after configuring the security-related settings of the products. Fully understand problems that may occur if using the product without configuring the security-related settings. It is recommended to use this product after configuring the security-related settings on your own judgement and responsibility while taking other countermeasures (use of physical security countermeasure against theft or use of VPN function to prevent data eavesdropping) according to your use environment.
