1 FCCInformation

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the Mueller Systems could void the user's

authority to operate the equipment.

IMPORTANT NOTES: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements:

1) The antenna used for this 915 MHz transmitter must be installed to provide a

separation distance of at least 23 cm from all persons during normal operation.

2) In addition, the GPRS cellular antenna must be installed to provide a separation

distance of at least 20 cm from all persons during normal operation.
