Electromagnetic and Radio Equipment Compatibility
Guidelines:

Follow the guidelines to ensure electromagnetic and radio
performance:

Notice: Operate this product only with
shielded cables and accessories. The DC power input cables may be
unshielded.
Notice: The length of all I/O cables, except
those connected to the Ethernet and GPS antenna ports, must be no
longer than 3 m to ensure specified performance.
Notice: This product is not approved or
licensed for transmission over the air using an antenna. Operating
this product with an antenna may violate local laws. It is approved
for signal reception using a GPS antenna in the appropriate port.
Ensure compliance with local laws before using an antenna other
than a GPS receive antenna.

performance of this product, employ industry-standard ESD
prevention measures during installation, maintenance, and operation
to avoid Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) damage.

Electromagnetic Compatibility Standards:

Follow the electromagnetic compatibility standards:

Note: Group 1 equipment (per CISPR 11) refers
to industrial, scientific, or medical equipment that does not
intentionally generate radio frequency energy for material
treatment or inspection/analysis purposes.
Note: In the United States (per FCC 47 CFR),
Class A equipment is intended for use in commercial,
light-industrial, and heavy-industrial locations. In Europe,
Canada, Australia, and New Zealand (per CISPR 11), Class A
equipment is intended for use only in non-residential
locations.
Note: For EMC declarations, certifications,
and additional information, refer to the Product Certifications and
Declarations section.
