Guidance and Manufacturer's Declaration - Electromagnetic Immunity
(a) Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio
(cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM
and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically
with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF
transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the
measured field strength in the location in which the ME Equipment is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the ME Equipment
should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is
observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or
relocating the ME Equipment.
(b) Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be
less than [V1] V/m.
Recommended Separation Distances
Recommended Separation Distance Between Portable and Mobile RF
Communication Equipment and the ME Equipment
The ME Equipment is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in
which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of
the ME Equipment can help prevent electromagnetic interference by
maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment (transmitters) and the ME Equipment as
recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the
communication equipment.
