Digital Wireless Microphone
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules (and the Industry Canada (IC) Spectrum Management and
Telecommunications policy, RSS 210 standard.) These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against interference in a commercial or residential installation. This product generates, uses,
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instruction manual, may cause harmful interference with radio communications.
Operation of this product in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case you
will be required to correct the interference at your own expense. This device complies with Part 15 of
the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a nonresidential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. Any changes or modifications to this device not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
THIS “product” MEETS THE FCC REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY
ENERGY (SAR). Your wireless “product” is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of a set of
comprehensive guidelines that establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for
wireless communications devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption
Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions, as applicable to this device, specified by the FCC. The standard incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations
in measurement. Before a badge is available for sale to the public, sample units must be tested by a
certified regulatory lab to verify that they do not exceed the limit established by the governmentadopted requirement for safe exposure.
USE ONLY APPROVED ACCESSORIES
RF exposure (SAR) tests have been performed on the “product” when it is being worn correctly and
used with the approved accessories. The SAR test results show that the badge complies with all FCC
exposure requirements. When a properly-oriented badge is operated with the appropriate accessories,
as directed in the “product User Guide”, the level of RF exposure is well below the FCC limit of
1.6W/Kg. Therefore, to ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines when wearing the
“product”, the user should only use “product” approved accessories (e.g., lanyard, pocket clip, etc.).
Accessories that have not been tested for RF exposure compliance with this product may not comply
with the FCC RF exposure safety guidelines and should not be used. To ensure RF exposure
compliance of the “product” when using the lanyard, position and maintain the call button, the speaker,
and the antenna facing away from the body, as illustrated in the “Getting Started” section of the
“product User Guide”. The badge and lanyard attachment have been designed specifically to maintain
proper orientation during normal usage. Additionally, the lanyard clip can be secured to clothing to
provide additional stability. Wearing the “product” with the antenna facing the body may result in noncompliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines and must be avoided. Use only the internal antenna
which is part of this product. Any use of unauthorized antennas, any modifications to the supplied
antenna, or any use of unauthorized attachments could damage the badge, violate FCC regulations,
and void the user’s authority to operate the product.

IC RSS 210
This Radio Standards Specification (RSS) sets out the requirements for license exempt lowpower intentional radiators, defined as Category I equipment as per RSS-Gen. The applicable
standard for low-power intentional radiators in Canada, for Category I equipment corresponds
with FCC Part 15 Subpart C. The two are very closely harmonized in terms of permitted
frequencies, types of operation, and other technical requirements, but a separate certification
application is required for Canada. Receivers for RSS-210 transmitters also require certification
with applicable limits to be found in RSS-210.
