NGT ASR Transceiver Getting Started Guide 7
Electromagnetic compatibility and safety
notices
Radiation safety
To ensure optimal transceiver performance and to avoid
exposure to excessive electromagnetic fields, the antenna
system must be installed according to the instructions
provided.
Electromagnetic compatibility
To ensure compliance with the EMC Directive is maintained,
you must:
1 Use standard shielded cables supplied from Codan
(where applicable).
1 Ensure the covers for the equipment are fitted correctly.
1 Cover unused connectors on the junction box and RF
unit with the protective caps supplied to prevent
electrostatic discharge passing through your NGT
equipment.
WARNING
Do not touch the antenna while it is
transmitting.
WARNING
You should not transmit from your transceiver if
people are within:
• 1.5 m of any part of a mobile antenna
• 2 m of any part of a fixed antenna in a data
installation with < 125 W output
• 5 m of any part of a fixed antenna in a data
installation with < 1 kW output
CAUTION
If it is necessary to remove the covers at
any stage, they must be refitted correctly
before using the equipment.
