General Compliance and Safety
The usage of radio transmission devices is subject to specific regulatory requirements
governed by regional legislation. In most cases, the specific device must be authorized
for use in a given country and must be installed and adjusted in accordance with specific
radio-frequency settings and in a manner that has been authorized specific to the device
itself in accordance with the specific location of the device. Some users may be
completely or partially restricted from use of the device. Please consult local
governmental agency/agencies for regulatory requirements before use, or contact Exalt or
your Exalt authorized dealer for assistance.
Do not modify this device in any way without the express written consent of Exalt.
Modification voids the manufacturer warranty, and may also be illegal in accordance to
government regulations. In addition, there are no user-serviceable parts or assemblies
inside the product housing. There may also be voltages, signals, and mechanisms within
the device that could be harmful to human safety.
The mounting of this device and associated peripherals and connections (inclusive of
antenna mast, antenna, cabling, egress, lightning protection devices, grounding, power,
and so on) may be subject to regional requirements for health and human safety. A
qualified professional installer and an electrician are highly recommended, and may be
required by law.
Exalt cannot warranty the device or be found liable for any unauthorized use or
installation of the device.
Regulatory Notices
General
Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) may be required by regional legislation in some
frequency bands in order to avoid causing interference to radar systems. Prior to the start
of any transmission, the device equipped with DFS monitors the spectrum and is not
permitted to transmit on a part of the spectrum that is already in use for radar
transmissions for a period of 30 minutes. During operation of the device, the spectrum is
continually monitored by the DFS to detect if radar begins transmission on a frequency
that is being used by the device to transmit on. If the DFS detects radar, the device must
move off channel within a specified time period so that the device transmission does not
interfere with the radar transmission. The device equipped with DFS is required to stay
off that part of the spectrum for a minimum of 30 minutes, after which time the device
may then check the spectrum for radar transmissions and begin transmitting if no radar is
detected.
