1. RF ENERGY EXPOSURE INFORMATION 1.1 RF ENERGY EXPOSURE AWARENESS, CONTROL INFORMATION, AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR FCC OCCUPATIONAL USE REQUIREMENTS Before using your mobile two-way radio, read this important RF energy awareness and control information and operational instructions to ensure compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines. NOTE This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions, where users have full knowledge of their exposure and can exercise control over their exposure to meet FCC limits. This radio device is NOT authorized for general population, consumer, or any other use. CAUTION Changes or modifications not expressly approved by M/A-COM, Inc. could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide communications between two or more users over a distance. It uses RF energy or radio waves to send and receive calls. RF energy is one form of electromagnetic energy. Other forms include, but are not limited to, electric power, sunlight, and x-rays. RF energy, however, should not be confused with these other forms of electromagnetic energy, which, when used improperly, can cause biological damage. Very high levels of x-rays, for example, can damage tissues and genetic material. Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and industry work with organizations to develop standards for exposure to RF energy. These standards provide recommended levels of RF exposure for both workers and the general public. These recommended RF exposure levels include substantial margins of protection. All two-way radios marketed in North America are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet government established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recommend specific operating instructions to users of two-way radios. These instructions are important because they inform users about RF energy 4
5 exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control it. Please refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and how to control your exposure to assure compliance with established RF exposure limits. http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.htmlhttp://www.osha.gov./SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html1.1.1 Federal Communications Commission Regulations Your M/A-COM, Inc. EDACS D3100 RF Modem is designed and tested to comply with the FCC RF energy exposure limits for mobile two-way radios before it can be marketed in the United States. When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires users to be fully aware of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational requirements. Exposure awareness can be facilitated by the use of a label directing users to specific user awareness information. Your M/A-COM, Inc. EDACS D3100 RF Modem has an RF exposure product label. Also, your D3100 Installation and Operator’s Manual includes information and operating instructions required to control your RF exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements. 1.2 COMPLIANCE WITH RF EXPOSURE STANDARDS Your M/A-COM, Inc. EDACS D3100 RF Modem is designed and tested to comply with a number of national and international standards and guidelines (listed below) regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy. This radio complies with the IEEE and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure environment at duty factors of up to 60% talk-40% listen and is authorized by the FCC for occupational use. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines, your radio antenna radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (talking), not when it is receiving (listening) or in standby mode. Your M/A-COM, Inc. EDACS D3100 RF Modem complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and guidelines: • United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR §§ 2 sub-part J. • American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1992. • Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999.
CAUTION Table 1-1 lists the recommended minimum lateral distance from the AV102800V1 mobile antenna that must be provided for unaware bystanders in an uncontrolled environment, when the D3100 is transmitting at three watts. Transmit only when unaware bystanders are at least the uncontrolled recommended minimum lateral distance away from the transmitting antenna.

2. SAFETY INFORMATION 2.1 COMMON HAZARDS The operator of any mobile radio should be aware of certain hazards common to the operation of vehicular radio transmissions. Possible hazards include: Explosive Atmospheres Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle with the motor running, be sure to turn the radio OFF while fueling the vehicle. Do not carry containers of fuel in the trunk of the vehicle when the radio is mounted in the trunk. 8 • • • Interference To Vehicular Electronic Systems Electronic fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems, electronic cruise control systems, etc., are typical of the types of electronic devices that may malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio frequency energy present when transmitting. If the vehicle contains such equipment, consult the dealer for the make of the vehicle and enlist his aid in determining if such electronic circuits perform normally when the radio is transmitting. Blasting Caps CAUTION To prevent accidental detonation of electric blasting caps, DO NOT use two-way radios within 1000 feet of blasting operations. Always obey the “Turn Off Two-Way Radios” signs posted where electric blasting caps are being used. (OSHA Standard: 1926.900) • Radio Frequency Energy To prevent burns or related physical injury from radio frequency energy, do not operate the transmitter when anyone is within two feet of the antenna. CAUTION Before jump starting or changing the vehicle battery, it is strongly suggested that the 3A fuse located in the Red lead (IGN A+) be removed. This will insure that the radio is protected from damage during the battery charging process. Replace fuse when charging is completed.

6. INSTALLATION 6.1 UNPACK AND CHECK THE EQUIPMENT Before starting the installation, carefully unpack the equipment and inspect the equipment for damage. If there is any damage, file a claim with the carrier immediately. POWER CABLE DATA CABLE D3100 UNIT Figure 6-1: D3100 Unit 6.2 PLAN THE INSTALLATION Before starting, plan the modem’s installation carefully so that it will be: Functional • • • • Neat Protected from water damage Easy to service The procedures in this section provide a guideline for installing the data modem. In some applications it may be necessary to deviate slightly from the recommended procedure and the order in which the equipment is installed. 14
15 To ensure the feasibility of the cable routes, it is suggested that the cables be run prior to installation of the radio. Ensure slack is left in each cable so the radio may be removed for servicing with all connections remaining intact. D3100 is intended for installation within a weatherproof building, enclosure, or vehicle. Typical installations are: 1. Elevated (usually beyond unassisted reach) in an outside enclosure with co-located antenna, 2. Mounted inside a building and connected by RF cable to outside antenna (usually above unassisted reach), or 3. Vehicle installation with vehicle rooftop antenna. Install the D3100 so that the LED indicators on the front panel are visible during operation. If installation is within the United States, it is recommended the unit be installed by one of the many M/A-COM Authorized Service Centers located throughout the U.S. Personnel at these centers are experienced in installations of this type and can provide a safe, neat, and functional installation. 6.3 INSTALL D3100 RF MODEM Mount the antenna, following the included instructions, in a manner that prohibits or precludes the presence of anyone within the prescribed MPE Radius when the transmitter is on (see Table 1-1). Connect the antenna to the D3100 antenna connector. In order for the D3100 to communicate with the RS-232 device, the D3100 data cable must be connected to the RS-232 device using an appropriate data cable or cable adapter. The accessory Data/Programming/C-U Adapter Cable (CA103067V1) that comes with the D3100 provides this interconnect function. When assembling hand-made adapters, make sure the corresponding function is connected between the D3100 Data Cable and other devices. Connection of non-corresponding (dissimilar) functions may cause damage to the D3100 or connected equipment and/or failure of proper performance. (See Section 4.1 for the data connector functions.) Connect the polarized power plug of the D3100 power cable to a corresponding polarized socket on a 13.6 +/-15% DC, regulated power supply, the Red lead to positive (+) and Black lead to negative or ground (-). When power is on, the Yellow LED is on. If the correct personality has been entered, correct data connection, antenna connection, and power connection are made, and power is on, then D3100 is ready for data calls.
