Safety Considerations
When installing or using this product, observe all safety precautions during handling and
operation. Failure to comply with the following general safety precautions and with
specific precautions described elsewhere in this manual violates the safety standards of
the design, manufacture, and intended use of this product. EMS Wireless assumes no
liability for the customer's failure to comply with these precautions.
WARNING
WARNING calls attention to a procedure or practice, which if ignored, may result in
damage to the system or system component. Do not perform any procedure preceded
by a WARNING until described conditions are fully understood and met.
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND GENERAL NOTES
FCC Class A
Note: 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. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct
the interference at his own expense.
This Class A digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference Causing
Equipment Regulations. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device
may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Cet appareillage numérique de la classe A répond à toutes les exigences de l'interférence
canadienne causant des règlements d'équipement.L'opération est sujette aux deux
conditions suivantes: (1) ce dispositif peut ne pas causer l'interférence nocive, et (2) ce
dispositif doit accepter n'importe quelle interférence reçue, y compris l'interférence qui peut
causer l'opération peu désirée.

The Manufacturer's rated output power of this equipment is for single carrier operation. For
situations when multiple carrier signals are present, the rating would have to be reduced by 3.5
dB, especially where the output signal is re-radiated and can cause interference to adjacent band
users. This power reduction is to be by means of input power or gain reduction and not by an
attenuator at the output of the device.
Installation should be made per ANSI/NFPA 70, the National Electrical Code (NEC), Article 810
specifically for clearances from power and lighting conductors, mounting and grounding.
The screen of the coax cable must be connected to earth (grounded) at the entrance to the building.
This should be done in accordance with applicable National Electrical Code (NEC) installation codes.
In the U.S., this is required by Section 820.93 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
This unit is intended for use in Restricted Access Areas only.
Disconnect all power before servicing the unit.
Install the product securely on a stable surface. Install the product in a protected
location where no one can step or trip over the supply cord, and where the supply
cord will not be damaged.
Do not expose this device to rain or other moisture.
If a system is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the room
ambient. Consideration should be given to installing the unit in an environment
compatible with the maximum recommended ambient temperature of 45º C.
Install the unit in a rack so that the amount of airflow required for safe operation is
not compromised. The recommended clearance on the front, top, and rear of the
unit is at least 1”.
Mounting of the unit in a rack should be such that no hazardous condition is
achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Use supplied hardware to mount the unit to the equipment rack, EMS part number
SCR160145, Panel Mount Screw or SCR160146 and WSH170179, Screw and
Washer.
A readily accessible disconnect device that is suitably approved and rated shall
be incorporated into the field wiring.

b. Prior to repair, EMS Wireless Customer Support will advise the customer of EMS
Wireless test results and will advise the customer of any charges for repair (usually for
customer caused problems or out-of-warranty conditions).
If returned devices meet full specifications and do not require repair, or if non-warranty
repairs are not authorized by the customer, the device may be subject to a standard
evaluation charge. Customer approval for the repair and any associated costs will be
the authority to begin the repair at EMS Wireless. Customer approval is also necessary
for any removal of certain parts, such as connectors, which may be necessary for EMS
Wire- less testing or repair.
c. Repaired products are warranted for the balance of the original warranty period, or at
least 90 days from date of shipment.
