1.4 XF Pod (DSP506XF and DSP508XF Sensors Only)
The DSP506XF and DSP508XF sensors communicate with the aligner console using
Extra High Frequency (XF). Radio waves are transmitted and received from the sensors
and the XF Pod.
Occasionally the XF Pod may receive interference from electronic devices in the
neighborhood (microwaves). The DSP506XF and DSP508XF sensors and XF Pod may
be configured to use different radio frequencies to minimize interference.
The XF system transceiver generates power radio waves in the range of 2.4 GHz. Radio
waves at these frequencies reflect off most objects, resulting in an indoor and outdoor
range of approximately 100 feet (30 meters).
Interference has occurred when the XF Pod does not receive the radio waves. If this
happens, move the mobile cabinet approximately 2 or 3 inches (51 or 76 mm) in any
direction.
Temporary interference problems can be bypassed by connecting the sensors to the
aligner console with the sensor cables.
Precautions for Systems Equipped with XF Cordless Sensors
The following precautions apply to the XF transceivers installed in the aligner console
and the alignment sensors as part of the XF cordless sensor option.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interferences
that may cause undesired operation of the device.
WARNING: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when
the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at his own expense.
WARNING: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
