a. Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna
of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To
reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so
chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary
for successful communication.
b. This radio transmitter has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types
listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna
type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum
gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
Antenna type Antenna gain Antenna impedance
Autec stylus λ/4 <2dBi 50 Ohm
Autec stylus λ/4 with 5m
RG58 <2dBi 50 Ohm
Autec stylus λ/4 with 20m
RG213/U <2dBi 50 Ohm
c. Autec allows you to use only the dedicated antenna supplied either with the remote control or
as original spare part. The use of any other type of antenna is prohibited and will invalidate the
warranty.
d. Place the antenna of the Receiving Unit in a position that ensures a minimum separation distance
of 20cm from all the people that can be in the working area.
Read carefully the section of the Manual where the antenna position is described,
both in the general part and in the specic part referring to the Receiving Unit.

4 Frequencies
Dynamic series' Radio Remote Controls can work in the 915-928MHz frequency band.
The Radio Remote Controls' working frequency is dened by market-specic laws
and standards. In order for the system “Machine+Radio Remote Control” to be
compliant and therefore to be used, these laws and standards must be respected:
if they are not, the Radio Remote Control cannot and must not be used.
Autec cannot be held responsible if the Radio Remote Control is set with
frequencies that are forbidden in the country of use.
4.1 915-928MHz frequency band
4.1.1 Frequencies
The radio link between the Units of Autec Dynamic series Radio Remote Controls is established
at one of the frequencies permitted by the US, Canadian and Australian standards in force
when the system is put on the market.
Frequencies used ........................................................................................................ 256
RF power ........................................................................ meets FCC and IC requirements
Channel spacing ...................................................................................................... 50kHz
The Units communicate with one another in dynamic mode, that is:
-they use a working frequency in the 915-928MHz band,
-they check that the frequency is free before using it,
-they continually change the working frequency to maintain the radio link even when
interference occurs.
4.1.2 Countries of usage
Dynamic series' Radio Remote Controls working in the frequency band 915-928MHz can be
used in the US, Canadian and Australian markets.
Check on the technical data plate of the Units in which markets the Radio Remote Control
can be used.
