䢇 Get Started guide (this document)
Section 1A. Introducing the Merlin C777
As with any electronic device, the Merlin C777 device
must be handled with care to ensure reliable operation.
Follow these guidelines in using and storing the
device:
䢇 The device should fit easily into an available PC Card
or ExpressCard slot (by removing the integrated
adapter). Forcing the device into a slot may damage
the connector pins.
䢇 Protect the device from liquids, dust, and excessive
heat.
䢇 When not installed in your computer, store the device
in a safe place.
䢇 Remove the device before storing or transporting
your computer.
䢇 When inserting or removing the device, always grip it
by the sides rather than the end, as this prevents
damage to the device’s antenna and connector.
䢇
Do not handle or operate the device while driving or
operating a vehicle. Doing so may distract you from
properly operating the vehicle. In some jurisdictions,
operating communication devices while in control of
a vehicle is a criminal offense.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in any particular installation. If this equipment
causes harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, you are encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
䢇 Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
䢇 Increase the separation between the equipment and
the receiver.
䢇 Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
䢇 Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television
technician for help.
RF Exposure/Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR) Information
This product has been evaluated for SAR and meets
the FCC Guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
FCC Equipment Authorization ID: PKRNVWCC760
Your wireless modem is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the exposure limits for radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government. These
limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and
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 devices including
mobile cards and wireless modems uses a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions reviewed by the FCC with the
28
Section 3B. Regulatory Information
device under test transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all frequency bands. Although the SAR
is determined at the highest certified power level, the
actual SAR level of the device while operating can be
well below the maximum value. This is because the
device is designed to operate at multiple power levels
so as to use only the power required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless
base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before this device is made available for sale to the
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it
does not exceed the limit established by the
government-adopted requirement for safe exposure.
The tests are performed in positions and locations (for
example, at the ear or worn on the body) as required
by the FCC for each model.
THE FCC HAS GRANTED AN EQUIPMENT
AUTHORIZATION FOR THIS WIRELESS MODEM
WITH ALL REPORTED SAR LEVELS EVALUATED AS
IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE FCC RF EXPOSURE
GUIDELINES. THE HIGHEST SAR VALUE FOR THIS
MODEM WHEN TESTED FOR COMPLIANCE
AGAINST FCC STANDARDS WAS 1.179 W/KG USERLAP POSITION.

Important Notice
Because of the nature of wireless communications,
transmission and reception of data can never be
guaranteed. Data may be delayed, corrupted (i.e., have
errors), or be totally lost. Although significant delays or
losses of data are rare when wireless devices such as
the Merlin C777 device are used in a normal manner
with a well constructed network, they should not be
used in situations where failure to transmit or receive
data could result in damage of any kind to the user or
any other party, including but not limited to personal
injury, death, or loss of property. SPRINT SPECTRUM
L.P. accepts no responsibility for damages of any kind
resulting from delays or errors in data transmitted or
received using the Merlin C777 device or for failure of
Do not operate the Merlin C777 device in areas where
blasting is in progress, where explosive atmospheres
may be present, near medical equipment, life support
equipment, or any equipment which may be
susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such
areas, the Merlin C777 device MUST BE POWERED
OFF. It can transmit signals that could interfere with this
equipment.
Do not operate the Merlin C777 device in any aircraft,
whether the aircraft is on the ground or in flight. In
aircraft, the Merlin C777 device MUST BE POWERED
OFF. When operating, it can transmit signals that could
interfere with various onboard systems.
The driver or operator of any vehicle should not
operate the Merlin C777 device while in control of a
vehicle. Doing so will detract from the driver or
operator’s control and operation of that vehicle. In
some jurisdictions, operating such communications
devices while in control of a vehicle is an offense.
