INTRODUCTION
This Manual describes the operation for the RELM RM Series mobile radios.
The RM Series is full-featured FM transceivers designed for flexible mobile and base
station business communications in the VHF or UHF Land mobile frequency bands.
The RM Series mobile radios can be programmed with 128 channels. The RM Series
include a 16 segment, 8 character, alphanumeric display for channel display. The channel
frequency data is stored in an EEPROM and flash memory; thus, allowing the RM
mobiles to be easily programmed by dealers using personal computers with the PC
editing software.
FCC Requirements - RF Radiation Exposure-for Occupational Use Only
Your radio must be properly licensed by the Federal Communications Commission prior to
use. Your RELM Communications dealer can assist you in meeting these requirements.
Your dealer will program each radio with your authorized frequencies, signaling codes,
etc., and will be there to meet your communications needs as your system expands.
To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within
the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the
following guidelines.
Antennas used for this transmitter must not exceed an antenna gain of 3dBi. The radio
must be used in vehicle-mount configurations with a maximum operating duty factor not
exceeding 50%, in typical push-to-talk configurations. This radio is NOT approved for use
by the general population in an uncontrolled environment. This radio is restricted
occupational use, work related operations only where radio operator must have the
knowledge to control the exposure conditions of its passengers and bystanders by
maintaining the minimum separation distance of 2 feet (0.7meters) between any persons
and the antenna. Failure to observe these restrictions will result exceeding FCC RF
exposure limits.
Do not operate the radio without a proper antenna attached. As this may damage the
radio and may also cause to exceed FCC RF exposure limits.
Always use authorized accessories.
