User's Manual Part 2

XDL Micro Intergrator’s Guide

To assure optimal radio performance and to ensure that exposure to RF energy is within

the guidelines in the above standards, observe the following operating procedures:

• Do not operate a transceiver when someone is within the distance noted below of the

antenna (unity gain).

– 45 cm (approximately 12 in) for the XDL Micro radio @ 2 W

– 15 cm (approximately 6 in) for the XDL Micro radio @ 1 W

• Do not operate the transceiver unless all RF connectors are secure and any open

connectors are properly terminated.

• Avoid contact with the antenna while operating the transceiver.

• Do not operate the transceiver with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes

in contact with the skin, a minor burn may result.

• Do not operate the equipment near electrical blasting caps or in an explosive

atmosphere.

CAUTION – Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the FCC could void the user’s

authority to operate the equipment.

WARNING – The XDL Micro is classified as an intentional radiator of type radio transceiver.

Conducted and radiated emissions of the standard XDL Micro do not exceed the

requirements of FCC part 90 and ETS 300-113-2. OEM is responsible for full compliance of

final product.

General cautions

CAUTION – You must handle the XDL Micro with care during installation. Remove the

transceiver from its protective bag only in an ESD safe area.

CAUTION – Incorrect impedance matching of the antenna, connectors, or cable degrades the

performance of the transceiver.

CAUTION – Internal circuitry protects the inputs and outputs against damage caused by

high static voltages or electric fields. However, normal precautions are necessary to avoid

application of any voltage higher than the maximum-rated voltages.

CAUTION – Radiated and conducted signals to and from the transceiver may cause problems

due to interference. Correct attention to frequency planning may reduce interference from

radiated or conducted frequencies that fall within the pass-bands of the filters at the IF

frequencies.

CAUTION – To avoid interference between the signals, Pacific Crest recommends you do not

bundle the antenna interface cable with other signal cables internal to your product.
