Itron Mobile Radio Compliance Statement
Equipment Description
Itron Mobile Radio
Model: IMR
FCC ID: EO9IMR
IC: 864A-IMR
Itron Mobile Radio Compliance Statement
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, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
Class B Part 15 Compliance Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or TV technician for help.
Compliance Statement Canada Déclaration de Conformité
Under Innovation, Science and
Economic Development Canada
regulations, this radio transmitter
may only operate using an antenna
of a type and maximum (or lesser)
gain approved for the transmitter
by Innovation, Science and
Economic Development Canada.
To reduce potential radio
interference to other users, the
antenna type and its gain should
be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power
(e.i.r.p.) is not more than that
necessary for successful
communication.
Conformément à la réglementation
d'Industrie Canada, le présent
émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec
une antenne d'un type et d'un gain
maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour
l'émetteur par Industrie Canada.
Dans le but de réduire les risques de
brouillage radioélectrique à
l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il
faut choisir le type d'antenne et son
gain de sorte que la puissance
isotrope rayonnée équivalente
(p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité
nécessaire à l'établissement d'une
communication satisfaisante.
This device complies with
Innovation, Science and Economic
Development Canada license-
exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) this
device may not cause interference,
and (2) this device must accept
any interference, including
interference that may cause
undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme
aux CNR d'Industrie Canada
applicables aux appareils radio
exempts de licence. L'exploitation
est autorisée aux deux conditions
suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas
produire de brouillage, et (2)
l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter
tout brouillage radioélectrique subi,
même si le brouillage est susceptible
d'en compromettre le
fonctionnement.
Caution ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
Use only approved accessories with this equipment. In general all
cables must be high quality, shielded, and correctly terminated.
Unapproved modifications or operation beyond or in conflict with
these instructions for use, may void authorization by the authorities
to operate the equipment.
Important Changes or modifications to the device or its antenna
not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate the device.
Transportation Classification
The Federal Aviation Administration prohibits operating transmitters and
receivers on all commercial aircraft. When powered, Itron Mobile Radios
are considered operating transmitters and receivers and cannot be
shipped by air with the battery installed. To ship by air, remove the battery
and follow li-ion shipping regulations.
Specific Absorption Rate Data
The FCC ID: EO9IMR and IC: 864A-IMR model of Itron Mobile Radio
meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves.
Your Itron Mobile Radio has a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
and manufactured not to exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the
U.S. government and by the Canadian regulatory authorities. 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 or health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile and/or portable devices
employs a unit of measurement known as the specific absorption rate, or
SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC and by the Canadian regulatory
authorities is 1.6 W/kg1. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC and by Innovation, Science and
Economic Development Canada with the radio transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all test frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
radio while operating can be well below the maximum level. This is
because the Radio is designed to operate at multiple power levels,
depending on the needs of the customer.
Before an Itron Mobile Radio is available for sale to the public in the U.S.
and Canada, it must be tested and certified to the FCC and Innovation,
Science and Economic Development Canada that it does not exceed the
limit established by each government for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (for example, worn on the body) and
reported to the FCC and made available for review by Innovation, Science
and Economic Development Canada. The highest SAR value for this Itron
Mobile Radio, model IMR when tested for use when worn on the body as
described in the user’s guide is 0.24 W/kg. While there may be differences
between the SAR levels of various Itron Mobile Radio models and at
various positions, they all meet the government requirements for safe
exposure. Please note that improvements to this product model could
cause differences in the SAR value for later products; and in all cases,
products are designed to be within the guidelines.
----------------------
1In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for wireless mobile and/or
portable devices used by the public is 1.6 W per kilogram averaged over 1
g of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to get
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.
Warning Use this device only in a manner consistent with the Itron
Mobile Radio User Guide.
