Page 1 1 Before You Begin Carefully remove and inspect the package contents. Refer to the Package Checklist below. Please adhere to the following Safety Considerations. 1.1 RF EXPOSURE COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS/ EXIGENCES DE CONFORMITÉ DE L'EXPOSITION RF The PTC-3000 family must be professionally installed and must ensure a minimum separation distance listed below between the radiating structure and any person. Note that with Fixed installation with highest gain antenna of 14.1dBi, the antenna of the product, under normal use condition, should be at 2.08 m away from the body of any user for fixed installation. Note that with Mobile installation with highest gain antenna of 5.2dBi, the antenna of the product, under normal use condition, should be at 1.41 m away from the body of any user for mobile installation. The output power for fixed stations is factory set max limit at 45.5dBm on 220MHz antenna ports. The maximum EIRP is 50.4dBm based on max gain antenna of 14.1dBi and cable loss of 9.2dB. If user/installer exceeds this max EIRP, the installer must increase cable loss and/or lower power accordingly. Note that output power is variable, and the actual power is chosen at the time installation depending on cable losses, Antenna height and gain and terrain as per FCC/ IC licensing procedures. The output power for mobile stations is factory set max limit at 44.5dBm on 220MHz antenna ports. The EIRP is is 46.9dBm based on max gain antenna of 5.2dBi and cable loss of 2.8dB. If user/installer exceeds this max EIRP, the installer must increase cable loss and/or lower power accordingly. Note that output power is variable, and the actual power is chosen at the time installation depending on cable losses, Antenna height and gain and terrain as per FCC/ IC licensing procedures. The concentrated energy from an antenna may pose a health hazard. People should not be in front of the antenna when the transmitter is operating. The installer of this equipment must ensure the antenna is located or pointed such that it does not emit an RF field in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population. Recommended safety guidelines for the human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy are contained in the Canadian Safety Code 6 (available from Health Canada) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Bulletin 65. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance (in the country where used) could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Lilee Systems™ TransAir™ PTC-3000 Family User Manual Page 2 La famille PTC-3000 doit être installé par un professionnel et doit assurer une distance minimale de séparation entre les ci-dessous la structure rayonnante et toute personne. Notez que l'installation fixe avec antenne haut gain de 14.1dBi, l'antenne du produit, sous conditions normales d'utilisation, devrait être à 2.08 m du corps de n'importe quel utilisateur pour l'installation fixe. Noter que l'installation mobile avec l'antenne de gain le plus élevé 5.2dBi, l'antenne du produit, dans des conditions normales d'utilisation, doit être à 1.41 m à partir du corps d'un utilisateur pour une installation fixe. La puissance de sortie pour les stations fixes est réglé en usine limite max à 45.5dBm sur les ports d'antenne 220MHz. La pire maximale est basée sur 50.4dBm antenne à gain maximum de 14.1dBi et la perte de câble de 9.2dB. Si l'utilisateur / installateur dépasse ce maximum PIRE, l'installateur doit augmenter la perte de câble et / ou inférieure de puissance en conséquence. Notez que la puissance de sortie est variable, et la puissance réelle est choisi à l'installation le temps en fonction de pertes dans les câbles, hauteur d'antenne et le gain et le terrain que par la FCC / IC procédures d'octroi de licences. La puissance de sortie pour les stations mobiles est réglé en usine limite max à 44.5dBm sur les ports d'antenne 220MHz. Le pire est est basée sur 46.9dBm antenne à gain maximum de 5.2dBi et la perte de câble de 2.8dB. Si l'utilisateur / installateur dépasse ce maximum PIRE, l'installateur doit augmenter la perte de câble et / ou inférieure de puissance en conséquence. Notez que la puissance de sortie est variable, et la puissance réelle est choisi à l'installation le temps en fonction de pertes dans les câbles, hauteur d'antenne et le gain et le terrain que par la FCC / IC procédures d'octroi de licences. L'énergie concentrée d'une antenne peut poser un danger pour la santé. Les gens ne devraient pas être en face de l'antenne lorsque l'émetteur est en marche. Le programme d'installation de cet équipement doit veiller à l'antenne est située ou orientée de telle sorte qu'il n'émet pas un champ RF dépassant les limites de Santé Canada pour la population générale. Consignes de sécurité recommandées pour l'exposition humaine à l'énergie électromagnétique des fréquences radio sont contenues dans le Code canadien de sécurité dans 6 (disponible auprès de Santé Canada) et la Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Bulletin 65. Tout changement ou modification non expressément approuvés par la partie responsable de la conformité (dans le pays le cas échéant) peuvent annuler l'autorité de l'utilisateur de faire fonctionner l'équipement.
Lilee Systems™ TransAir™ PTC-3000 Family User Manual Page 3 1.2 Safety Considerations Please ensure the following safety precautions are adhered to at all times.  Follow electrostatic precautions whenever the PTC-3000 is installed. To prevent malfunction or damage which may be caused by Electrostatic Discharge, the PTC-3000 should be grounded. Before touching components or connecting/disconnecting cables, the installer should touch a metal object to dissipate body charge.  Make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is disconnected whenever the PTC-3000 is being installed or moved.  Do not apply voltage levels that exceed the specified voltage range. Doing so may cause fire and/or an electrical shock.  Do not open the chassis when the PTC-3000 is running: Electric shocks can occur.  If considerable amounts of dust, water, or fluids enter the PTC-3000, turn off the power supply immediately, unplug the power cord, and contact the distributor or sales representative.  DO NOT do the following: o DO NOT drop the PTC-3000 onto a hard surface. o DO NOT use the PTC-3000 in a site where the ambient temperature exceeds the rated temperature. 1.3 ESD Notice To prevent malfunction or damage to this product, which may be caused by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), the radio should be properly grounded at the time of installation. In addition, the installer or maintainer should follow proper ESD precautions, such as touching a bare metal object to dissipate body charge, prior to touching components or connecting/disconnecting cables. 1.4 FCC/IC Approval Notice/ Avis d'approbation FCC/IC This device is offered as a licensed transmitter per FCC Parts 80, 90, & 95 and IC RSS-119.
