FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
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/TV technician for help.
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
RF exposure warning
The equipment complies with FCC RF exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
RF exposure information (SAR)
This Rugged PDA meets the government's requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This Rugged PDA is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for
exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S. Government. The exposure standard for wireless Rugged
PDA employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the Rugged PDA transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the Rugged
PDA while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the
Rugged PDA is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the
poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base
station antenna, the lower the power output. The highest SAR value for US model
Rugged PDA as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the body, as described in
this user guide, is 0.713 W/kg.
