Product Safety and RF Exposure for the AMR RF
Transmitter
BEFORE USING THIS RF TRANSMITTER, READ THIS BOOKLET WHICH CON-
TAINS IMPORTANT OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE USAGE AND RF
ENERGY AWARENESS AND CONTROL INFORMATION FOR COMPLIANCE
WITH RF ENERGY EXPOSURE LIMITS IN APPLICABLE NATIONAL AND
INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS.
The information provided in this document supersedes information contained in user
guides published for this product prior to July 2004.
The AMR RF Transmitter is designed for fixed locations.
Compliance with RF Energy Exposure Standards
Notice: This RF transmitter is intended for use in uncontrolled environments.
Federal Communication Commission Regulations
The FCC established limits for safe exposure to radio frequency (RF) emissions from
two-way radios. The FCC requires manufacturers to demonstrate compliance with
RF exposure limits before two-way radios can be marketed in the U.S.
Your AMR RF Transmitter is designed and tested to comply with a number of nation-
al and international standards and guidelines (listed below) regarding human expo-
sure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy. This transmitter complies with the
IEEE (FCC) and ICNIRP exposure limits for uncontrolled RF exposure environ-
ments. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure
guidelines, your AMR RF Transmitter radiates measurable RF energy only while it is
transmitting, not when it is in standby mode.
Your AMR RF Transmitter complies with the following RF energy
exposure standards and guidelines:
• United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regula-
tions; 47CFR part 2 sub-part J
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Elec-
tronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998
• Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to
Radio frequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to
300 GHz, 1999
• Australian Communications Authority Radio communications (Electromagnetic
Radiation - Human Exposure) Standard 2003
• ANATEL, Brazil Regulatory Authority, Resolution No. 303 of July 2, 2002 "Reg-
ulation of the limitation of exposure to electrical, magnetic, and electromagnetic
fields in the radio frequency range between 9KHz and 300 GHz" and “Attach-
ment to resolution # 303 from July 2, 2002”
Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating Instructions for
the AMR RF Transmitter
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the uncontrolled environment
exposure limits, always adhere to the following procedures.
• Use only Motorola approved supplied or replacement accessories. Use of non-
Motorola-approved accessories may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines.
• The end-user would be provided with appropriate installation instructions for
satisfying RF exposure compliance.
It is recommended that the transmitter be installed such that the antenna and the
transmitter are kept 7.8 inches (20 cm) from passersby when transmitting. Keeping
the transmitter at a proper distance is important because RF exposures decrease
with distance from the antenna.
