■ Precautions for radio signals
●The wireless LAN card WLI-CB-B11 has been approved for conformity to the engineering standards as the
wireless facility for a radio station with the low power data communication system based on the Wireless
Telegraphy Act. Therefore, use of this LAN card does not require any radio station license.
●Never use the WLI-CB-B11 near the magnetic field around a microwave oven or in an area where static
electricity and/or radio noise is generated. The radio signals may not be normally transmitted in these
areas.
* When the WLI-CB-B11 is used near a wireless printer buffer (BUFFALO's RYP-G or similar products by
other manufacturers) that use radio signals around 2.4 GHz, the processing speed of both devices may
be adversely affected.
●As the WLI-CB-B11 has been approved for conformity to the engineering standards, the following may be
regarded as unlawful.
• Disassembling/remodeling the WLI-CB-B11
• Removing the approval label from the rear of the WLI-CB-B11
●When it is necessary to set a radio channel other than the initial setting in the WLI-CB-B11, use the same
frequency band as the following equipment or wireless stations
• Industrial, scientific, or medical equipment
• Radio station for mobile identification used such as on a manufacture line in a factory
(1)On-premise radio station (requiring a license)
(2)Specific low power radio station (requiring no license)
●Operating the WLI-CB-B11 may cause interference with the above equipment or radio stations. Thus, take
precautions for the following points
1 Before using the WLI-CB-B11, verify that no on-premise radio station for mobile identification or no
specific low power radio station is operating near the WLI-CB-B11.
2 If an event of interference should be taken place by the WLI-CB-B11 with an on-premise radio station
for mobile identification, immediately change the frequency for this product to prevent the interference.
3 If you notice any trouble such as an event of interference caused by the WLI-CB-B11 with a specific
radio station for mobile identification, contact your nearest sales representative.
